Ricardo Ricco Makes the Podium

3rd place for getting caught doping this year goes to Ricardo Ricco of Saunier Duval.  I would like to be the first to congratulate Ricco in sneaking in a 3rd place finish in such tough competition.  He is certainly a rider to keep an eye on for future top drugging offenses.  Ricco is nicknamed “The Cobra” for his snakelike ability to sneak new un-testable variations of EPO into team cars, busses, and hotels while convincing the UCI that his hematocrit level is just “Naturally High at 51.” 

The podium this year has been set.

1. Beltran
2. Duenas
3. Ricco

Fourth Place is waiting….it will be filled. My guess is 4th spot will be filled by someone that has already withdrawn from the race.

    I think Ricco should be on the first step as I see him as the biggest disappointment’s of the tour since he took 2 wins away from riders who were clean. He also got me excited the way he climbed. I want my viewing back.

    Rob-
    Great argument. I agree that he is the biggest disapointment, but he was caught 3rd. Piepoli now gets the Green Jersey for winning a stage and then being removed for “team ethics violation.” I am going to wait until the end of the tour, and then maybe I will give some time bonuses to some of the biggest doping idiots.
