Stage 15 - The Tables Have Turned

What a stage today! Contador has proven himself to be on a different level than anyone esle in this years race. In my opinion, everyone else is racing for second. With the removal of certain spoiled sports from the fantasy teams, we entered this stage with only three points separating myself and Mom. Her team turned it around today and dealt a serious butt-kicking to my now helpless team.

Here are the standings:

I really don't revel in my new lead based on the circumstances.

Cavendish is a jerk and should not have shoved Big Thor.

Garmin undermined George so all members are off my team.

The next few mountain stages are going to be interesting. Contador needs to stay disciplined and listen to Bruynel. Otherwise he will not win the tour.

Now that we have purged our teams it will be fun to see who has the best climbers!

So, I never heard who won out of you and mom. How did the end of the tour go?
