Tour coverage sweepstake

[Chuffy]

For those of us limited to the ITV coverage: how about a sweepstake based on the number of times that Liggett and Sherwen mention Team LA?

I'm expecting a bum-licking nause-fest for the next three weeks and I need to make it manageable somehow...

Ha...both of them are on Versus channel at the moment (live feed) - and you'll never guess who they keep mentioning........

I enjoyed how they kept finding a connection from the rider they were covering to St Lance....

 

[Crackle]

Sherwen told us that Lance felt strange racing the sons of riders he'd raced years ago, twice. Maybe not many people speak to him anymore, so he has to tell the same anecdote twice.

Still, he got Menchov right. A 'diesel' he described him as. I suspect he'd like to say more but can't.

Can't you get Eurosport for a month?

Don't know, we're on the basic Freesat package (a legacy of the previous owners who left their box and dish) and I begrudge paying extra for channels.

Funnily I read that as:

"Lance felt a sense of utter joy to know he was cheating the sons of riders he had cheated years ago"

I do too but the cycling is almost worth it and the women's beach volleyball......

The men's beach volley ball is good as well, but I would make them wear, shorter shorts and no top! I specially like it cos they are men not boys.

You've obviously been at the haterade, noodley.

I'm sorry you can't believe in miracles...

'tis more or less what I've got. An old Sky box hooked up to recieve the free channels.

Anyway this challenge is impossible, it's every other sentence. Did you see Boardmans assesment at the end?

A Phil and Paul drinking game with Lance actually riding would put most of us in hospital within ten minutes, I think.
