Grogs Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 ... Tour de France comedy. Whether you love or hate them, they really produce some pearls. Post your favorites that you hear on this thread. There was a beaut on yesterday's stage, when Thibault Pinot punctured in the closing kilometers: Liggett: "That's Pibault Tinot ..."
robsc Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 They are great , getting a little tired of Sherwins same comments every year . I am enjoying Matt Keenan and Robbie McEwans commentary more
Snails Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 I've enjoyed how Phil Liggett has called Jasper Stuyven Peter Styuven for three days straight, presumably confusing him with Peter Stuyvesant. Absolutely useless at his job.

Grogs Posted July 7, 2016 Author Posted July 7, 2016 The phrase "iemand het 'n bietjie te diep in die bottel gekyk" comes to mind.

Wannabe Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 Was strange to me how he yesterday talked around Louis, being the only Lampre Merida rider in the group. He mentioned everyone, except Louis, even when the camera was trained on him.
HenkD Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 well they keep it interesting when the racing is not hot.
lechatnoir Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 Giro commentary was the best, and as bad as Liggett is, he's better than the chap who did the Dauphine
mtbride Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 Liggett getting long in the tooth, same as my Mom calling me my uncles name and my brothers name before she gets to my name sometimes ...
pe3nguin Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 Not listening to Liggett and Sherwin this year. Have opted for Swiss broadcasting and it has been rather pleasant to-date.
finallygotabike Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 "these are the heads of state in the sport of professional cycling" "He is turning himself inside-out" Some of Sherwin's repeated phrases year on year
Shebeen Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 I though commentary was done in january and there's a sound engineer just twiddling the dials now on each stage.... what gets my goat is the chick who does the ASO official highlights packages. ja i know she's french so is a 2 for 1 deal, but is the most bland voice over out. she also does the Dakar.
Popit Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 Matt and Robbie are awesome . I had a little moan about Phil and Paul last year ....Can't be easy talking for over 2 hours per day about the same things .Also , we as avid cyclists understand (mostly) what is going on . They need to also presume that some of their audience is/are 1st time watchers of Le Tour . But poor Paul .....
Thor Buttox Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 "these are the heads of state in the sport of professional cycling" "He is turning himself inside-out" Some of Sherwin's repeated phrases year on yearThey are free to fly... Out of the commentary box at some point. Robbie Mac for the win.
Andrew Steer Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 Absolute legends, but yeah... their time was up about 2/3 years ago. Really enjoy Matt Keenan
