Annoying Things Seen and Heard on TdF Versus Coverage Thread....
 

Frankie Andreu trying to describe London today sounded like a stumblemouth high school kid....

And here's Bob Roll: 'London: One monument after another...'

I saw nothing remotely as disturbing as Bradley Wiggins' haircut.

i didn't see his hair...any photos?

sort of like this, but worse:

.. so we start a thread to talk about the annoying things on Versus' coverage. Do you people have a positive bone in your body. All you do is whine (every year?) about T.V. coverage. Who here is glad we get ANY coverage.

It's 2007, odds are there is a mute button on the box. As for seeing something annoying, look away.

So I guess we will take this to mean you like Bradley's 'doo.

Did I miss Bob Roll? I didn't hear him for the last 2 or so hours I watched it for....

I'd rather listen to Bob Roll farting the French national anthem than listen to people *****ing about Vs. TDF coverage.

I looked up his 'do on cyclingnews.com. That haircut is horrid. We need to send him to Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. He may be a world class rider, but that is not world class hair.

Not really annoying, but did anyone notice the name of the cafe in the Visa commercial that played over and over? The Bianchi cafe...

he looks alot like this guy

I liked the Specialized commercial with Bettini, I wonder if it was really his VO.

Let him car pool with Vladimir Karpets. I usually don't care what people do in terms of style, but those guys look borderline homeless.

I wasn't really paying attention to the men's hairstyles.

I didn't know that was something roadies check out regularly.

You sound so threatened.

:) I'm bald.

I don't have any interest in hairstyles. I still don't see how or why hairdos that are matted & hidden by a helmet warrant a thread.

And please stop trying to be coy with the "You sound so threatened" remark. This had zero to do with men checking out other men; you'd know if it did .. or if I put the moves on you.

I loved that commercial too. Bettini looks cool on a bike. I want to get a world champions jersey. I did not find anything annoying but when phil said valverde was a "very angry man" I laughed.

Since VS is providing TDF coverage and are advertisers here it would make sense to be kind.

- what ads? i don't see any here on BF...

Neither do I. They have ads here?

...And I think the best thanks would be honest feedback, assuming they actually read these pages.

Meh, I'm just freaking pumped that it's July.

If yesterday's performance was any indication, we're in for a great 3 weeks of racing :D

is that what that was?

why do 'you people' whine about we people who whine about things? :D

c'mon, admit it: most of 'we people' like to goof on 'those people'....

evidence: mr. blackwell's best-dressed celebrity list goes almost totally unnoticed, but his worst-dressed celebrity list always gets the buzz.... :rolleyes:

i'll be kinder when bob or frankie personally pay for advertising.... ;)

or when everyone starts being kinder to bikesdirect for the same reason! :D
