OMG, Mart Smeets' ego has crossed the border.

explain please

 

[palmerq]

today is the day pozzato wins something...... I hope. Well probably not but I think cancellara being such a big favourite could help him out a wee bit everyone will be watching fabian so he can just hang on as usually whilst everyone else tires themselves out and then he can win a small sprint....

 

[ak-zaaf]

explain please

I´m just wondering how long it will be before he takes over Vannieuwkerke´s program completely.

This will never happen. Smeets is a failed poet. He blabbers too much.

What I meant was that he usually just blabbers so much that the rest sits there as screen filling.

Coming on Eurosport soon

 

[The Sheep]

Mart Smeets explaining cycling to the Flemish haha

 

[ak-zaaf]

Erik Dekker named Nuyens as the favorite...

Is he for real or is it sour grapes about Nuyens never being good at Rabobank?

Eurosport (1) up and running now as well. Eurosport HD in 15 minutes.

Look forward to some boring studio chat.

Yeah, you're right. Problem is that he always strays and tries to be a lyricist. That and him being a boring old turtle.

Rob Hayles' fascinating Vlaanderen story

 

[Jamsque]

Sporza, these guys in the studio are very interesting I'm sure, but I don't speak Belgeish, so can we get to the racing please?

 

[luckyboy]

Good move to get in for Garmin and Sky, will all the other teams just leave Saxobank to do the chasing?
