I very much like listening to Kelly. Just wanted to say that.

Dan Posted this, this morning about Sean Kelly. However much slack people give him possibly because he talks over certain points of action, he's definitely commited to the job.

Gotta say that SK seems more 'on it' than he has been in a while. Apart from calling Lotto Soudal Lotto Belisol every now and again!

Kelly has senior moments with the team names but has a great eye for the race situation and dynamic, which is the most important part.

Table of Reds is a favourite of mine.

Totally agree but I did get a laugh at him comparing the young kids at Sunweb to a bag of puppies.
Well, I did laugh the first time he said it, and you know he's just going to repeat that until the end of next season..at least.

Like him or hate him, no one can come close to Kirby's ability to come up with references to literature and using a metaphor as a segway before handing it off to Sean Kelly. Today did he not only predict the stage winner, he came up with this brillant line: "Who's waiting for Gadau?"
Kelly paused for a second before saying no one was waiting for Gadau. I'm not sure he got the reference, but then again, it wouldn't be easy to match the witticism on the spot.
There is no script in front of his face. He just makes it up on the go and I find that truly impressive.

Waiting for Kirby (to retire) could be a fitting name to this thread
