Liggettisms TDF 2011

Stage 19-when Evans is riding between Andy and Frank:
"This is a Schleck sandwich that will give them indigestion"

 

[rides like a girl]

Camera is moving from Andy's shoes to his helmet while Andy is in the start house Phil comments on the view:

Everything is yellow for him his gloves, his jersey, his shorts, his shoes, his bike.

Camera shows his bike is white and shoes are black.

Did Cadel fight like a rabid, rapid dingo?
Crikey Cadel!!

Paul Sherwen, stage 16/17:

"you're certain to win if you go across the line alone"

Thats not as dumb as it sounds - just saying that attacking and dropping people is theoretically more workable than carrying them to the line on the assumption you'll out-sprint them... but it WAS Paul saying it so....

PS: "Garmin-Cervelo are showing why they're one of the strongest teams in this years TDF....but they're not doing a very good job as the gap is still at 47 seconds".

That's pure class.

If he says "a Schleck sandwich" one more time I'm gonna puke.

I'm going to merge this with the Liggettisms thread - however before I do.....

HOW has nobody posted this Tour's all time gem?:

Climbing Luz Ardiden: "Voeckler hasn't put a wheel wrong all day - except for when he crashed of course...."

I think you mean, ""Voy-kler hasn't put a wheel wrong all day - except for when he crashed of course...."

Voy-kler, Boy-sen Hagen, Rock-***...

(That last one is his pronunciation of Rojas... obviously, a bit too rude for here!)

You missed out Rabo's 10th man - Phantom rider Maarten Jangel-ee.

The Spanish commentator calls him "Martin Jalling". Yep.

It's worse with Christian Knees (/nis/) and Dries (/drais/) Devenyns though.

Any Rabo rider was called Martine Jangle-ee by Phil. I think he really just like saying the name. Glad he got another one on the Champs...of course as was pointed out by another poster...it was really Carlos B.
