Good Advertising, Bad Advertising

Today, Nature Valley sponsored a commercial-free half hour of the final finish in today's stage of the Tour de France. It was the most spectacular half-hour I have ever seen, and I plan on buying Nature Valley granola bars next time I go shopping. Good Advertising!



About three days ago, Garlique started a commercial during the final sprint of the Tour de France stage, cutting off the live airing of the finish line. i will never, Never, NEVER buy this product. Ever. Ever. Bad Advertising!

Two Tenths of a Second!

I love the team time trial stage of the Tour de France, but they have not held it for years. Well, they brought it back right when they brought Lance back! As always, his team dominated! First place in the team time trial by 18 entire seconds! Wow!

Lance Armstrong would be in yellow today if it were not for two TENTHS of a second! Fabian Cancellara was leading the tour by 40 seconds this morning, and now he is only ahead of Lance by two tenths of a second. Once we hit the mountains, he is a goner.
Here are the current standings:

1.	CANCELLARA Fabian		TEAM SAXO BANK	10h 38′ 07″
2.	ARMSTRONG Lance		ASTANA	+ 00′ 00
3.	CONTADOR Alberto		ASTANA	+ 00′ 19″
4.	KLÖDEN Andréas		ASTANA	+ 00′ 23″
5.	LEIPHEIMER Levi		ASTANA	+ 00′ 31″
6.	WIGGINS Bradley		GARMIN - SLIPSTREAM	+ 00′ 38″
7.	ZUBELDIA Haimar		ASTANA	+ 00′ 51″
8.	MARTIN Tony		TEAM COLUMBIA - HTC	+ 00′ 52″″
9.	ZABRISKIE David		GARMIN - SLIPSTREAM	+ 01′ 06″
10.	MILLAR David		GARMIN - SLIPSTREAM	+ 01′ 07″

Looks kinda like team Astana is slaughtering everyone else, doesn't it?
