    My '04 favorite, from a couple of days ago:

    "In what other sport can you get this close to your favorite bike rider?"

    Was that Phil or Paul?

    BTW, for some strange reason the above quote led me to muse, "Voeckler
    is fighting like a buckyball."

    I was watching my DVD of last years TdF, and I kept cracking up every time
    he referred to Tyler Hamliton's "fractured clavicule"

    clavicule

    Main Entry: clav·i·cle
    Pronunciation: 'kla-vi-k&l
    Function: noun
    Etymology: French clavicule, from New Latin clavicula, from Latin,
    diminutive of Latin clavis; akin to Greek kleid-, kleis key, kleiein to
    close
    : a bone of the vertebrate pectoral girdle typically serving to link the
    scapula and sternum -- called also collarbone
    - cla·vic·u·lar /kla-'vi-ky&-l&r, kl&-/ adjective

    Clavicule

    En anglais : clavicle.

    Terme issu du latin clavicula : petite clef.

    Os pair présentant la forme d¹un S allongé en italique, s¹articulant en
    dehors avec l¹omoplate (vers l¹épaule) par l¹intermédiaire de l¹acromion
    (qui est un prolongement vers le dehors et en avant de l¹omoplate) et en
    dedans avec le sternum (os vertical située à l¹avant du thorax). La
    clavicule est située transversalement à la partie antérieure (en avant) de
    la ceinture scapulaire (partie située à la base du cou).

    Les moyens de liaisons entre eux l¹omoplate et la clavicule sont des
    ligaments trapézoïdes conoïdes, qui permettent l¹insertion de nombreux
    muscles de l¹épaule et du cou.

    Pathologies

    € Fracture résultant d¹une chute sur l¹épaule (suite à un accident
    de vélo par exemple) située le plus souvent au tiers moyen de l¹os. Elle est
    parfois à l¹origine de complications immédiates comme une ouverture de la
    peau, une blessure d¹un vaisseau profond ou une lésion d¹un tissu nerveux de
    voisinage, mais ceci est exceptionnel.

    € Fracture de la clavicule chez le nouveau-né après un accouchement
    dystocique (difficile)

    € Luxation de la clavicule, essentiellement chez le sportif, se
    situant au niveau de l¹articulation acromio-claviculaire (entre l¹acromion
    et la clavicule). Ces luxations peuvent présenter divers degrés de gravité
    allant de l¹entorse simple à la déchirure totale du ligament
    acromio-claviculaire.

    Traitement

    Le traitement des fractures de la clavicule nécessite la pose d¹un bandage
    en forme de 8 qui permet de maintenir les deux épaules mobiles. Ceci a pour
    but de fixer solidement les deux extrémités de la fracture. Le traitement
    orthopédique la fracture de la clavicule est rare. Les séquelles
    susceptibles survenir sont un cal vicieux (qui ne respecte pas l¹anatomie de
    l¹os) ou une pseudarthrose (impossibilité de consolidation de la fracture, à
    l¹origine d¹une fausse articulation).

    Definitely Phil. Murray Walker, you may have met your match... ;-)

    Some Murray wisdom:

    "Two laps to go, then the action will begin. Unless this is the action,
    which it is."

    "...and that could be, to put it very mildly indeed, suicidally dangerous."

    Nahhh, Phil's got some work to do yet... ;-)

    I could've sworn one of the commentators said he kept "bouncing back like a
    Superball."
