Agritubel
This blog wouldn't be complete for 2006 without some mention of the team in last place in the standings, which will most likely remain there: Agritubel. They were a last-minute wild-card selection and they "will be attempting to get in as many breaks as possible to show the sponsor’s name."Their team is profiled here, and their team website is here.
I'm still trying to figure out what kind of product Agritubel markets. Something about tubulaire bovin? Cow tubes? Cow tuberculosis?
Aha. They make stanchion systems for dairy cattle farms. Must be hard to go up against mega-corporations like CSC and T-Mobile with just the financial backing of some dairy farmers. At least they should get along with the Lactose Lads of Milram.
Um, are those udders on their team uniforms?
