    I could be gullible but I don’t think Pogi is juicing (or maybe that’s just my naïveté).

    Maybe Remco can rebound for the Worlds or for the Vuelta. 

    While not likely a winner this year, be interested to see where Lipowitz can finish.

    I just added Lipowitz to my fantasy team over Onley. I imagine the power of their respective teams will put Florian on the third step.
    Dennis Rodman stole my seat N1 @ PJ20. 
    U.S. Summer shows for the teachers, please.
    I’m tired of driving to Chicago. Play Detroit, Cleveland, Columbus, Pittsburgh, or Buffalo.

    he’s probably not but, damn, he’s dominant.

    I was glad to see Wellens win today but it was a boring race for any casual fan who might have tuned in just because it was only the second stage to get two hours on NBC. then again, I don’t think there are casual biking fans. you either get it or you don’t.

    on a lazy sunday morning, it’s fine just to stream the whole 5 or whatever hours.

    NBC’s daily youtube wrap up will probably be my go to.

    Are there different functions with Peacock depending on what you pay for? I’m able to fast forward the replays.

    hmmm….I don’t know. I watched the end of today’s stage on Peacock because I didn’t go to work.

    Vingegaard must feel like Ulrich felt with Lance. The only real drama left is who will take third.

    I wondered if O’Connor’s sponsor was the same Jayco that makes recreational trailers. Sure enough. And here’s a factoid….3/4 of Jayco’s 3200 person workforce in Indiana is either Amish or Mennonite.

    Great stage today. Would have been nice ro have more GC drama but Pogacar made sure that never happened. Assuming he’s clean, he’s a very worthy winner.

    Interesting to hear that Remco was also suffering from a broken rib coming into the tour.

    Past two stages have been fun to watch - good for O’Connor and Arensman.

    Love how this finished. No more riding in circles, drinking champagne.

    Tadej just might be an all-timer.

    Yes a much more exciting final stage. Really happy to see the stage win go the way it did today!
