Lassitude is what ultimately undermines historic achievements in sport. When the commentators up the verbosity and purple prose with regards Pog's "exploits", a whole bunch of viewers have just noped out already 100km earlier.
To win without peril is to win without glory. That's a French idiom that applies in Pog's case. The gap is just too big. To no one's surprise the biggest "excitement" of Pog's season was seeing him go toe-to-toe with Mvdp in Roubaix. And he didn't win that one.
