I'm assuming this was the NBC Sports crew? It's Bob Roll and the other guy, Steve something? I actually think that guy is better than Phil Liggett, paired with Paul Sherwen. That Gogulski guy is the one who openly said that Quintana may be on dope after one of the early season stages races. He's a tool.
Oh, and to the point, that kind of hyperbole happens in every sport. Lebron James is the best ever, Roger Federer is the best ever, blah blah it's just blowhards trying to fill dead air.
