So is the $10 fee for a charity of the winner’s choosing?

**TBS** · 07-06-2018, 07:45 PM

Fuck - go offline for a 1.5 days and look what happens
I’m with spanky-I’d rather go with the NBC game rather than letour’s, ‘cause ASO.

ETA: decided to make a team in letour site. Team Fuck you ASO in da house

Go with TDF. It’s just a game; why the TDF hate?

The Tour de France pool is not a "set it and forget" it league. The road captain gets you double points. You can adjust who your road captain is everyday. If its a sprint day, put Segan as the captain, if its a climbing day on the Col d'Izoard climb you put french local Warren Barguil as your captain. Earn double points for them. Who wants to make changes every day?
On rest days you can change out riders for someone else thats perfuming better. More changes.
I really liked Velogames because I set my team and enjoyed watching the race and checking in now and then on how my team was doing.

To me TDF hate comes from them knifing Velogames

Agreed. But what do we do? TdF, Eurosport or NBC?

I wish I’d remembered the nbc...

seems like we’re in ASO’s game for this year

**TBS** · 07-07-2018, 06:57 AM

The first five stages of the NBC game are for practice, with unlimited roster changes to that point. We can always migrate there...

I now have teams set up in both games.

Is there a league set up?

Froome hits the deck among a bunch of others

The changes in road narrowness are shaking the train up

& Quintana double flats

**huckbucket** · 07-07-2018, 07:52 AM

letour site is official for this year ... we can decide ahead of time prior to the race next year. Looks like we have a dozen participants.

The quote I read was "Chris Froome is barged off the road in controversial fashion "

That's a stretch ...

Kinda tame bump there...was he not looking up at the time?

I guess he just got squeezed off the edge by the peloton there

**GeezerSteve** · 07-07-2018, 12:23 PM

lucky that post didn't break his neck

**buttahflake** · 07-07-2018, 07:11 PM

So, dumbest ever opening stage to the tour? For sure, what a fucking shitshow.
I don’t get it, I really don’t. Those roads in the last 10k were a joke.

**buttahflake** · 07-08-2018, 07:48 AM

Tim Declercq truly is, ‘the tractor’. Just pounding out tempo for hours. Cool stage. And I love that Chavanel is on a lone break.

+1 on all counts

Sucks for Gavaria.

But Sagan is always in the right place, at the right time. That's not luck. He starts tomorrow with the yellow, green, and world champs jerseys. Dude's a baller.
