Not pretty in pink

Lenoir, NC (LC Press, Int'l.) - Another day at the Giro and now it is time to let the sprinters have their fun before the real racing begins. Ale Jet took it to the Manxman, Mark Cavendish, by showing him a clean set of wheels at the finish line. Pettachi became one of an elite few who are able to show that Cavendish is beatable.

In Fantasy Giro news, Cavendish was the only rider to finish in the points for any of the teams. Those teams that have the exact same riders still need to submit a new roster in order to avoid a 4 way tie for whatever place they happen to all finish in.

Ah yes, great fun, and interesting choices. I hope you guys relying on Cavendish are enjoying this blush of success. Day after tomorrow.... things will be way different!

Curious, the first person to submit the roster in question, should get to keep that roster, don't you think? The other two should have to change theirs, think that's fair?

Agreed. The first DS to submit the roster has the right to keep it, but I wanted to open the offer to change roster to all so that it wouldn't disadvantage anyone.

So, who gets to keep it then??

I et there a couple of folks that would like to change VDV too!

It seems to me the changes should not be retroactive. Thus one could pick Ale Jet but not get his first two stage wins. What do y'all think?
