if Floyd wins his case he may want to stay in the US for a year and ease his way back into the European peloton considering his personal issues (family and health). He could very well sign for 1-yr with a continental team ... wasn't Ullrich on a business trip in the US just recently...?
I'm under the impression there's competition for talent even if they have to poach for a few out of favour riders.
...and then there's Armstrong "us vs. them" politics.
