So, on the wet coast, what time are they broadcasting the prologue start?

The TV schedule is here.

Any guesses?
I think they are quoting EDT, but who knows?

Is David Miller going to wear yellow on Sunday?
or maybe Zabriskie?
or Cancellara?

what you think?

I'm predicting Miller wins in England.

NBC used to do a nice hour long show on Sundays that summarized the prior week. I haven't seen that in my TV listings, yet.

ESPN has poker, bowling, and hot dog eating contests. What is wrong with the world? Is the Tour that inconsequential to the American public? Below hot dog eating? I know Lance has retired but a tense alpine climb followed by a breakaway finish is much more dramatic than half the "sporting" crap on TV, imo.

Anyway, I'm pulling for Levi to podium and Hincapie and Popo for stage wins. Vino is the guy to beat.

on comcast here, versus HD is also the Golf Channel HD so a lot of the versus programming gets dropped in favor of golf. is that the case everywhere else? ...i like golf, but keep it on the golf channel...at least they didn't bastardize the non-HD versus channel, all the TdF programming is there. i finally have cable for once and have set up the whole series to record :)

I'll cheer for an Englishman winning a stage or two. A Frenchie? Not so much.

Who saw McEwen pull that out today? Nuts! I didn't think he was going to make it back up to the front of the peloton in time to even contest the sprint at all. I swear that guy just disappears and comes back at 200m out. You know that he's got to be throwing some 'bows to get between that many people that quick.

wouldn't you just love to see that approach though the peloton? they miss a bunch of what goes on that we'd love to see. i can't wait til they figure out how to film this sport a little better. that said it's still a pretty good show with Phil and Paul. I'm happy they keep al trautwig away from the commentary...

I agree about Al Trautwig. I wish they'd find someone new to do the commentary for the Ironman vids. Or someone new to write the commentary. Okay, both. The cheese factor gets to me sometimes.

I suppose we could invite Kristen back.

She's a lot prettier than AL! :D
