    STOP COMPLAINING!!!! Please.....

    Kelly is certainly knowledgeable. But, if he drives a longtime fan like me to distraction, then what would he do to a more casual viewer? I think you have to strive for the whole package. The knowledge alone may not be enough - it has to be delivered in a way that communicates effectively...

    Can you differentiate between the two though? The network employs the commentators they feel can deliver the product they envision. And yes, with regard to Eurosport, I did turn off the sound:D

    STOP COMPLAINING!!!! Please.....

    I can understand that. But, as a player, I tend to listen to whatever is happening with any artist (even if it isn't the artist themselves) and there is some good production going on. it is an art to come up with a catchy hook. Plus, her producers use the best players in the studio and on the...

    STOP COMPLAINING!!!! Please.....

    Wrong. Those were just 2 artists that were about as diametrically opposed as I could get at the moment. Should I use something more current? How about, "there is room for Jack White and Maroon 5" (not saying Maroon 5 is equivalent to The Monkees just that Maroon 5 is clearly pop whereas...

    Now that is a reply to which I have no reply!!! I will gladly accept this chastisement given these facts. With those kind of credentials, I agree that she would be able to state that a particular cycling broadcast failed to impress her. My apologies. This was actually an easy apology to...

    And some people with taste in music realize there is room for both. Good music and entertainment can be found in the same artist. Not every great jazz player turned his back on the crowd with disdain. For every Miles Davis (great as he was), there was a multitiude of artists who also...

    STOP COMPLAINING!!!! Please.....

    Believe me, I have no issue with a broadcast that simply covers the event in its entirety with little or no commentary - allowing the drama on screen to be the draw. However, the EuroSports coverage that I heard 3 weeks ago was something we couldn't listen to. The announcer would open his...

    STOP COMPLAINING!!!! Please.....

    Exactly, very entertaining. Of course, even if he is cheerleading, I can excuse that. I mean, there isn't really such a thing as unbiased journalism anymore is there? Why should we be so concerned about "fairness" in the broadcast of a cycling show? Anyway, I don't think they are all...

    I didn't mention physical appearance so as not to appear too shallow. Of course, if you were born with good looks, that's just good fortune. However, you must be quite the catch!

    STOP COMPLAINING!!!! Please.....

    I must have forgotten that I must learn who is who before stating my opinion or questioning anyone. Like someone's reputation on an internet forum matters to me?

    STOP COMPLAINING!!!! Please.....

    What does impress you? Would I be impressed by you if I met you in person? Given that you are obviously a person with very high standards, I would expect you to be well-educated, physically fit, talented in the arts, accomplished in your chosen field, etc.

    STOP COMPLAINING!!!! Please.....

    To me, there is no comparison. VS is much better than EuroSport. I listened to EuroSport in my hotel a couple of weeks ago while traveling and had to turn off the sound since Sean Kelly's non-stop muttering was driving me insane.

    STOP COMPLAINING!!!! Please.....

    It's not stupid at all. Anyone who gets worked up about current technology given how far we have come needs to get a life. How lame can you be if that is all you have to complain about. Referencing things to the past is a good reality check. The past shapes the future. Or maybe you...
