Wonderboy, Nastyman, et al

The 2007 FGBC cx Campaign continues:

Preparations for the 2007 FGBC cx Pool march ever forward. Here's a first stab at a list of rider values. The current values are based on the final UCI rankings for the 2007-08 season. That may not be the best way to do it, but it's better than wild guesses. So take a look and respond if you have better suggestions. Salary cap is be $45 for a team of 9 riders.

You can tell the season is just around the corner not only by the chill that is all of a sudden in the air, but also by the amount of trash talk that's starting to get slung around. Wonderboy, for example, served up this little gem the other day:
I wouldn't say that Bart (Wellens) is my biggest rival. The past two years he has only won around 10 races. He shines only from time to time.
Nastyman prefers to speak less with words than with actions:


No doubt he's waiting for just the right moment to open up that can of whupass he keeps in his jersey pocket and spray it all over poor little Wonderboy.
