It is a little overdone this time around, isn't it. I think cyclism is an
unfortunate naming for the tour. A) because the tour doesn't need an
annual nickname. B) because even though I know they were melding cataclysm
with cycling or something like that it just sounds dumb.

Agreed...and even though I like Lance and hope he gets number 6, I'm getting
real sick of seeing him in EVERY commercial OLN airs.

Does anybody know if CBS is doing the one hour summaries of the pas
week every Saturday (in the US)? I know they did it the past two years
but, after looking in the TV Guide, I couldn't find it. I think it wa
called "Wide World of Sports (featuring TdF)." Instead, the schedule ha
a movie or PGA Golf, neither of which I care much about
