3. The return of black shorts in team kits. Colored shorts are beneath a man's dignity. Now to get rid of the tramp-stamp sponsor names across the ass.
4. France looks more beautiful than ever. Is there a 5-year prison term awaiting any TdF cameraman that pans across an ugly corner of town?

Dislikes:
1. No Podium coverage. I can't imagine what changed up on the podium that caused half the entire world to lose interest.

2. Neckties and sports coats on NBCSN commentators. It's unnatural. We can at least take comfort knowing that Bob Roll and Phil Liggett are holed up in their man-caves out of sight with four month beards.
a newish dearth of "podium girls?"
