Some initial impressions of the Phillie race

[cur...@the-md-russells.org]

1. John Eustace is the most annoying announcer allowed to broadcast at
major and semi-major events.
2. John Eustace is far more interested in what he wants to say than
what is actually happening in the race, often talking right through
the few actual happenings on the road.
3. Steve and Todd or Phil and Paul sound absolutely professional
compared to this team - Todd was the lone worthwhile voice in the wall
of sound that accompanied the race. The only thing to really break
through were the two times the sirens went off.
4. The Footon-Servetto kit is a crime against both nature and mankind.
It makes ugly an absolute goal and exceeds the target.

I stayed around, but missed whether or not the guy in front most of
the last third of the race finished and took the King of the Wall. I
assume he did, but...

Sounds like the description of David Duffy who got fired, finally after
people complained. Russell Williams was cool though and very much spot/point
on.

My impression is that Philly is usually a pretty boring race, as more
often than not, it comes down to a field sprint. It doesn't seem to
have enough difficulty to truly rip it apart, and the Wall comes too
far from the finish.
