Anyone who's ever been subject to Eurosport's mind-numbing monotone (AKA Sean Kelly) will go running back to Phil & Paul in a heartbeat. Contador might be burying Lance on the Tourmalet, but that won't stop Kelly's blocked nose from droning on with ancient anecdotes about the "class-i-ment" or "the situaaaaaaation". Kelly can make watching apples turn brown much more appealing than watching a race he's doing commentary on. Phil might be on the Lance PR-machine payroll, but I'll gladly take even Roll and Trautwig (fired?) over Kelly and anyone else they pair him up with. Okay, maybe not Frankie Andreu...

Why does Magnus Backstedt (great job at the Dauphiné) sound Australian?
