But it's the TOC and about on par with the Tour of Rwanda. There's a reason it's free. Nobody would pay for it and that's coming from someone (me) who'll watch pro racing in some pretty far-flung parts of the world in languages I can't understand. 
Even Sagan can't help this year.

I especially like the asymmetric bar tape. My Roubaix tape is half-black and half-white like the two guys in the Classic Trek episode “Let that be your final battlefield.”

Here's a nice little flat route that I use for TT training
https://www.strava.com/routes/18860247
not absolutely flat, but pretty close.
the first 30 miles is basically wide open

Sixers lost in heartbreaking fashion.
It's cold and raining again.
Really sad.

Amazing finish to that game, too bad somebody had to lose. But that's usually the case in Game 7's.

Moving forward with the NBA Playoffs, I'd either like to see either A) The Warriors win it all without KD or B) The Greek Freak and the Bucks beating the Warriors at full strength.

Because of the holiday, I let my son’s mother control the TV.
I did see on Twitter that people were comparing it to the WWF or a fixed post TDF criterium.
Is it me or is Sagan looking puffy?

It's possible. I am guilty of being a Sagan fan so of course I enjoyed watching the stage yesterday. I suspect for him it was like shooting fish in a barrel.
