According to the news bulletins, Leipheimer almost crushed his own team when leading out!? I guess Levi will take the GC tomorrow. |

That was one of your...not so smart posts Ruben
Does anyone know where I can get the video feed for the TDG?

Whoever's doing the tv coverage for this tour deserves a media for the most hilarously bad commentary ever. |

You have absolutely no idea. portuguese eurosport is a trillion times worse. every single fucking race.
The last time around the commentator said Pfannberger was Australian champion (he was wearing the austrian jersey), called every Lotto guy on the screen "Van Summenren", then commented how "Van Summeren is wearing himself out with so many attacks" (despite the fact it was never Van Summeren), then when Van Summeren finally attacked, he commented how "Van Summeren has amazing energy to still be able to attack after all this".
He mispronounces every single foreign name in a way that you simply cannot believe, as it is so far removed from the actual name.
He mispronounced the portuguese word for "water". which is a FOUR LETTER word.
and that's just the last race. he does similar things every race, never admits he's wrong, has a "I'm awesome" attitude and is dumb as a door (he once insisted the advantage a rider has in time is bigger if he's going downhill and the chase is still riding uphill).
So, no, not the worst ever

You should learn swedish and move to Sweden, then you never have to complain about the commentary...you would be in heaven, as I am.

people like what they're not used to. Or as a swedish guy told me (after looking at me stunned when he realised they like our women better and we like theirs better): "We're all f***ing the wrong women"

Lars Boom wins in Bretagne, Vermeltfoort stays leader in front of Boom. Rabo CT domination once again.
And to add more joy to the news, Dennis van Winden won the first stage of the very import Giro delle Regioni (U23) |
