Both of them are leaving the team next year. Wonder if it was something to do with that.

calling riis old slaphead woulda been good

Must have been more to it than that. Probably not pulling their weight in general and this is an excuse to kick them out.

Andy: "Hey Stuart, this Orujo has a real kick. Must be at least 60%. What do you reckon Bjarne?"

O'Grady probably had to buy the gargle. I doubt Schleck would get served.... even in Spain.

Captain Havoc

Maybe they wanted an excuse to get kicked out before the worlds?
