CBS's retrospect/wrap up was awful. 80% doping scandal and 20% the race. <BR/><BR/>VS coverage much better and of course Julie's commentary which should be on one of the bigger sites..I've enjoyed it very much. <BR/><BR/>Great TT, great finish, and all in all, a great Tour. I'm sorry it's over.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15831393017230792522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-594143940025689625.post-7419220495736256272007-07-28T23:03:00.001-05:002007-07-28T23:03:00.001-05:00Sorry....that was me-janannSorry....that was me<BR/>-janannAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-594143940025689625.post-46714013768755774002007-07-28T23:03:00.000-05:002007-07-28T23:03:00.000-05:00I really appreciate all of your excellent writing ...I really appreciate all of your excellent writing during the Tour, Julie! You always seem to be able to put into words (more eloquent than my own) what I've been thinking. These three guys were simply awesome today and just gave me chills. They should all be incredibly proud of both their athletic accomplishments AND of their professionalism in a Tour frought with turmoil.<BR/><BR/>You're exactly right in your comparison to returning from a vacation, T! Sleep I haven't been getting - household chores that haven't been done for FAR too long - friends I haven't called - appointments I haven't scheduled. Everything has taken a back seat, but damn what a great ride!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-594143940025689625.post-27936885962366893162007-07-28T22:43:00.000-05:002007-07-28T22:43:00.000-05:00Julie, did you notice that Lance's hair is no long...Julie, did you notice that Lance's hair is no longer graying??? I haven't seen him for so long, that was the first thing I noticed! At least the time gap is 9 seconds so we don't take anything away from mr.LeMond. <BR/>Lance reminds me of the president. Not hands on, but called in at the end to raise moral! I know, these guys were motivated, and they all respect Lance; but I don't know that his presence in the car affected much, except Conti is so young, it could have. I thought it was interesting that on the flat part of the course he was losing time, and he salvaged things, on those climbs.<BR/>I'm amazed at what you remember about the stages! I agree, these three where so evenly matched it was uncanny. I'm looking forward to tomorrows stage. It's like a vacation, when you are gone from home, and get home exhausted, need to unpack to start back your regular life, I kinda looking forward to the end of the Tour. Just so I get more sleep!!!cat2bikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00793506247703536677noreply@blogger.com
