There have been lots of great commercials on Versus during Tour coverage. My personal favorite is the Specialized commercial with Contador and Schleck "trash talking" each other!
Contador: I can eat 20 energy gels without throwing up.
Schleck: I can eat 20 energy gels...and a fried turkey.![]()

Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.

Just saw another of my favorites - Lance pedaling on trainer stating "No man over 30 should ever use emoticons...." "LOL...Don't make me get off this bike..."
Hilarious!![]()

I really like the Radio Shack commercials.![]()
My favorite is Lance riding behind the hybrid, but the "Lowell, get off my bike" is also hilarious.

We don't watch most of the commercials (DVR) but my favorite is the Schleck vs Contador commercial. The one with Lowell on the trainer is pretty funny too.

I like the Radio Shack commercials (the post it on the door that says; "In France on business." )
I haven't seen the Contador/Schleck commercial yet. Then again, we DVR the tour and fast forward through all the commercials. I'll have to keep an eye out for that one.

I like the one where the bunnies are laughing at a rattlesnake that has a baby rattle instead of a rattlesnake rattle. I think it's for an insurance company.
It's Alphonse on Lance's bike, and I love the one where he's in Radio Shack kit making like he's winning a stage, "...they're raising French babies and throwing soft cheeses, as is the custom.." -- cracks me up every time.
I haven't seen the Andy - Contador commercial yet.

Since I hadn't seen any of them but just had to go searching for them on YouTube... figured I'd post them here for others like me who don't have TV
Lance "LOL"
Alphonse on the trainer--French babies and soft cheeses
Contador and Schleck trash-talking
'09 Jamis Satellite Femme | stock Jamis Road Sport -- road
'08 Trek 7.2FX | Terry Cite -- commuter
'77 Raleigh Grand Prix mixte | stock Brooks (vinyl) -- just for fun!
I no longer have access to Versus...sigh. I downgraded my television package to aid my budget and I wish I could have it back for 2 weeks! Realistically though I wouldn't have much time to watch it anyway...so I will just have to live vicariously through this thread and internet videos.
I did see the one with Alphonse on Lances bike in his office - not too many commercials make me laugh like thatThe trash-talking commercial is great too...
I know they get paid a lot of money to do those commercials, but it is a lot of fun to see them taking themselves less...seriously![]()
I haven't seen the Contador/Schleck commercial but we dvr the Tour and ff through most of the commercials too. I like the Nike "Just Do It" commercial showing Lance on a climb as you hear the voices of people talking about exercising. I'm gone to training this week and they don't have Versus on the hotel tv....DARN IT!

I like the RS one where Lance tells Alphonse that people should use inside voice while talking on the phone.
Andy and Alberto trash talking is funny too.
