I guess it could mean both them and us. But I was referring to them. What’s really missing are the names. I think there’s still plenty of talent and that’s why no one is emerging as dominant. Sagan is an example. As good as he is and as much of a showing as he’s made over the last two years he hasn’t been able to grab a stage this year.
TdF live race coverage has the Green Jersey in the straggler group on the final climb.
I like seeing “new” names in most every sport and almost always root for “underdogs” — I think what’s not exactly working for me this year is the lack of any personality from Nibali ... I know nothing about him, he seems like a robot on a bike and I just am not interested in him. D9oes he do interviews? I do like Sagan, but he had the green jersey pretty much locked up a couple of days ago, so that’s pretty much a yawner too ...
I’m at the point now where I am just rooting for the other 2 podium spots ... hoping for Tejay for sure
I also totally understand the “skepticism” when seeing Nibali turning it up and sitting so cool in the saddle while most everyone else is at their breaking point
