Commentary on TNT and other WB brands

Apologies! I tend to get defensive when it comes to criticism of CK. It's a knee-jerk reaction that comes from years of defending my man CK on this forum. I think it's a form of PTSD, but please carry on. Nothing to see here, folks.
Relax, I'm now leaving him alone.
I've come to realise that nothing can as bad as the Jez Cox style of commentary.
 
Sporza commentary: (didn't know where else to post it)

In Dutch: "Didn't start today: Robin Froidevaux, he had a cold & Hugo Page, he turned another page"

Thought I'd leave it here for all the polyglot posters to enjoy.
Presumably that's like English commentators talking about Sandy Casar getting married and Felix Grossshartner being generous , and just assuming that the listener would get it, although there is no real phonetic clue.

I would trust a Dutch audience to be more able to appreciate it than an anglophone one.

Karsten Kroon "Cyprus is a country, I thought it was an island of Italy."
Followed by: "I went there on holiday once"

It's possibile that he confused Cyprus with the island of Capri, at least that' s what I hope for. Still :tearsofjoy:
 
I was expecting to hear Carlton do the difficult job of the first 200k of MSR but I must say, even though I kind of missed all the anecdotes about eating and drinking his way around Italy, I enjoyed Robbie and Nathan talking actual cycling.
Now we have the horse racing commentator for the finale.

I missed the race and its corresponding commentary. What kind of actual cycling did Robbie and Nathan talk about for 3 hours?
