So, does Rasmussen still get credit for winning stage 16 even though he’s out of the Tour? I think he does since it was not the Tour that kicked him out. Thus, I think those of you that picked Rasmussen to win stage 16 still get the points.
Tour Pool updated.
Remember what I said in the rules for this pool:
In the result of the 2007 Tour de France turning into a farce it will only be appropriate the the Smithers MINNEAPOLIS 2007 Tour de France pool also be turned into a farce. You have been warned!

From CBS5.com
The expulsion, which Bergsma said was ordered by the Dutch team sponsor…
According to this AP story, the Rabobank DS and the Tour director knew that Rasmussen lied about his whereabouts for out-of-competition testing. And it took the sponsor to expell him?
In other news, Moreni isn’t asking for a B sample test.
I know it’s killing Smithers that he doesn’t get to blog during the Tour flameout.

None of us picked Moreni, so I’ll slide the picks along to the next rider dope-controlled out of the tour. I really think one of our picks will be caught.
Next question: Will the Tour make it to Sunday?
