As the eternal winter now grinds on I find myself watching the TDF while turning circles on the mag rollers. Perhaps it's being old school, but I find the above mentioned commentators so entertaining and well grounded that I could almost turn off the pictures and listen to the commentary. When you compare them to anyone else doing cycling commentary, there is no one even close. For F1 racing it's like David Hobbs and there is a fantastic GP motorcycle commentator (Julian ????) who I don't know. My favorite quote from him was when one of the bikes was saved from a huge crash he stated "That was the greatest comback since Lazarus."
So scan your cycling tapes and post some of your favorite Phil liggett qotes, gonna suck when he retires.
One I remember as it was overplayed last year and I may mess it all up but,
"Here comes Lance Armstrong down the finishing straight like a Grand Prix motor car".
Really enjoy Bob roll as well, the humor is priceless.
