Another Liggetism in honor of Robbie McEwen...

"McEwan came through like a magical poker player!!!!"

I wish we could get Phil to replace Larry Munson when he retires.

I stand corrected. I just watched the rest day recap and they replayed that call. It was actually Paul Sherwan speaking and the qoute was "...he kept his calm like a magical poker player."
Anyway, it was an amazing win for Robbie. Shame he missed the bus yesterday.

I love Phil Liggett, but he's slowly becoming like Murray Walker with his gaffes. I loved Murray too but eventually, gaffes stop being funny and become embarrassing.

SBS, the aussie television mob that do the Tour, are breaking in a new bloke - let's just say he must be an ex-cyclist because the break in period is like that of a Brooks, long and painful.
