[THATmanMANNY]

I'm bored

thats how they do it overseas i guess. lol

even with that?

OMG footage finally!

 

[6thElement]

w00t, footage....and then it was gone.


edit: I've been on those hills they're currently showing, they're brutal.

 

[MEAN IRISH GUY]

yeah if you wanna call it footage. looks like they have a 56k modem on their satellites.

 

[doctor855]

versus as a whole is pretty lame...i wouldn't expect anything less when covering a sport that is probably less popular than soccer in this country.

 

[tonyride]

I'm seeing some footage now.

 

[6thElement]

Looks like Mancebo is going to get caught.

 

[tonyride]

Looks like Mancebo took the first stage.

 

[6thElement]

Indeed, awesome victory. Taking the lead after 5 miles and riding solo with 102miles to go!

 

[MEAN IRISH GUY]

mencebo killed it. well deserved.

your not kiddin..astana sure looks strong..odd how they seemed to slow down so much on the second and third lap though

What an awesome stage, this should set up for a great week of racing. :getsome:

Fabian dropped cause of a fever... pretty sad. Him and Levi would have been battling for GC.

Hopefully today we'll be able to actually watch the race... 12:30 on Versus!

Fabian climbs like a rock (although last year he did kill it on some of the tour de france climbs) so he would have dropped fairly quickly.

We have Kobzarenko in the break!! Cheer him on:getsome:

-Jim.

They just said Lance crashed into a video coverage motorcycle.

 

[THATmanMANNY]

did your guys race get cut short last night for a hockey game? Pissed me off, I was getting pumped for the final push into Modesto! I wish major bike races were always on tv, they make riding the trainer that much more bearable!

both monday and tuesday the coverage was cut short, I ended up watching the last sprint online. I guess since the race heads in to prime time on the east coast, it can't compete with "real" sports. I think the coverage has sucked anyways, the rain was a factor but it ends up being all interviews. I was enjoying watching lance take out levi (or levi take out himself) 50 times.

 

[THATmanMANNY]

I watch the 11pm-12pm recap. It gives you all highlights and results. It's better then the 3 hr coverage that doesn't even cover start to finish.

hockey is a real sport??
wish someone like espn would pick up races.(they show poker and bowling for christ sakes) versus is worse than being bad it borders on incompetance.
