Default who will sponsor Discovery?

Their sponsorship is ending at the end of this year.

I didn't know that CSC is actually an American company.

Nike could take the money they were paying Vick and sponsor a team.

$15 million is chump change to some of these large corporations. Has to be a company that has some international interests (because Americans don't follow the sport so much). Also has to be a company that is interested in cycling. Because I'm not sure it's an investment that really pays off.

Today's Dallas paper only dedicated one sentence to Levi Leipheimer, and that was in an article on the last page.
