STEPHEN: No team was a bigger flop in 2002 than C.A. What made that so disappointing was that 2001 was so awesome. The French are pinning their hopes to Moreau, who will inevitably let them down, but he does have the potential to win the King of the Mountains. But let’s face it, it’s all about O’Grady. He’s the guy who deserved to unseat Zabel, but he fell just short two years in a row. This is probably his best chance, and the team will ride for the green. Nothing else matters, except trying to screw up Lance.
JASON: If only that were Bernard Hinault, not Sebastien Hinault on their roster. The former was the last Frenchman to win the yellow jersey. Christophe Moreau is presumed to be the best hope now. But he’s a sissy. However, Stuart O’Grady is good enough to threaten for stage wins and the green jersey, and Jens Voigt is good enough to put him in good position to do that.
STEPHEN: Can you believe Laurent Fignon actually won the Tour de France? I really like C.A. but they weren't as good as they showed in 2001, nor as bad as in 2002. The truth lies somewhere in between, but I don't know exactly where that is. I'm saying they are average, yet I believe they can win two jerseys: King of the Mountains and points.
JASON: Good assessment.
STEPHEN: Aw, now I’m blushing.
