Hitting the mute button every time the bad Dennis Hopper
imitation comes on....
 
I love the whole idea that OLN is covering the Tour so well, but I wish
they would just lose the whole "world revolves around Lance" motif and
all the stupid commercials ...........

All I need is about three hours of good live coverage (without Trautwig
and Roll commentating - why can't they just replay Phil and Paul in the
evening like they used to ..........).

Where's this commentating?

Because people like you have a hard time understanding and appreciating
Phil and Paul's non American accents and speech.

You need to remember that last year's TDF coverage provided the highest
ratings in OLN history. So this year they are spending money to make sure
they get the big ratings again.

I'm sitting here following the Tour through OLN Live Audio and CN ticker
and reading about all this grousing. Some people oughta learn to be
thankful for what they've got.

BTW, if you can manage it you might mute the audio on the TV and play
the OLN Live audio. It's pretty much just Phil and Paul with a bit of
helicopter and crowd noise.
 
If you manage to get there in time to get the audio to load.... guess the
OLN I.T. boys didn't order up enough server/bandwith to supply all the tv
watchers with their own live internet audio link and have some left over for
us in I-ruck to follow the tour too.

I have watched all the morning coverage and love it .... but today it's
back to the office, so I'll just be following it on Cyclingnews.com for
my daily fix.

What I said (for the dumb kids in the class) is that Trautwig and Roll
have no business calling a race, leave that to Phil and Paul, they are
much better to listen to!
