Riis spins a web
Today's stage 9 of the Tour made me remember watching the movie Overcoming, about Team CSC in 2004. I only saw the movie one time but I recall a scene following a stage that had CSC doing a lot of work with US Postal to chase down and attack by Jan Ullrich.
Riis pulled Basso aside and "suggested" to Basso that CSC were not helping Postal. Basso nodded in agreement and again Riis "suggested" in stronger terms that implied that this was the storyline that the team was to follow.
Today, Contador appeared to be knocked over by Vladimir Karpets of Katusha
After the stage Riis and Contador tell reporters that Contador's brake hood got hooked by Karpets' saddle.
Unfortunately, they didn't seem to tell Karpets and Team Katusha the revised story before facing the reporters.

I'm glad to see that Karpets got his head on straight and realized that he didn't really knock Contador over. *wink *wink *nudge* *nudge*
