Azonic Posted May 16, 2010 Share Agree. They had the camera in I think it was Cunego's face the other day... and he had no idea who it was. Like, "and this is.... oh... um..... ahhhh". Pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe its just me , or maybe he doesnt have a clue about cycling but what ever it is I cant watch .Anyone else having the same problem ?[/quote'] With you on this one mate, that commentator doesnt know any of the riders, he struggles to finish a sentence before starting the second sentance which doesnt make any sense. He does'nt even know you call a group a pelaton. He struggled for half an hour to find a name for a pelaton, and eventually just stuck with "group" I have to admit after the first stages I havent watched any further its too irritating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted May 17, 2010 Share Hi Gents,Yes you are all correct. We take good commentry for granted, or with Phil we are just plain spoilt.RegardsSarge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philip.maree Posted May 17, 2010 Share Watched last evening for the first time since stage 1. Sorenson was in an aero position sitting on his top tube descending and the the guy said that he is just taking some weight of his legs to give them a rest. I just laughed. Then I watched the TOC and what a pleasure do have decent commentary! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
