it's my first real TDF and I don't get versus.. it's channel 151 on dish and we have i think a step above the basic package so we get CSTV and stuff, but no VS. this sucks. why does ESPN have billiards, bass fishing and bowling, but no Tour de France?

It came back just in time for me to see my pick Millar stink it up (but at least he is drug free) and Cancellara blow everybody away, including Kloden, who blew everyone away himself. It will be interesting to se how this goes.

I thought Kloden had it locked up after his ride. For Cancellara to drop 10 seconds on him was pretty amazing. A nice ride by Hincapie. BTW, the versus coverage had one annoying component today. Their finish clock was approx 6 seconds off of actual time.

Heaven forbid one cannot watch the most boring thing sports via a TV Set.

Gee, did you notice this was the cycling forum? Maybe you would be happier in the Butthead forum? Besides, there are no drug stains, these guys are very fastidious.

Oh the irony. You've admitted that you absolutely LOVE pro wrestling. That is the most drug stained "sport" in the world and while there isn't quite as much spandex, it's only because their spandex is speedo sized.
