You could see the announcer (robbie ventura) look shocked and sort of wanting to laugh, but they just went on like it didn't happen. guessing that won't be on the 'expanded edition' tonight.
    I thought that was team manager Jonathan Vaughters who swore, not Millar, but I could be wrong. Hope it doesn't get them into too much trouble. The censors may fine lots of $$$ for that.

    admittedly, i'm sitting at my computer working while watching/listening. but it sounded like millar, not vaughters. plus, vaughters knew he was on camera and millar didn't, which was why i figured it was millar, plus, the word was in response to "how do you feel" or whatever from vaughters. now i wish i had DVRed the live coverage. ventura's face was priceless though, whoever it was that said it.

    It was Vaughters. I found a blog about it here:

    He's a very bad boy .

    Is anyone doing the fantasy cycling challenge at versus.com/kenda? Looks fun and there are some nice prizes.

    I miss the Lucky 7 game that Trek had a couple of years ago!

    I don't know why they even put the media in the team cars. It's such a stressful time and words are not measured in situations like that. Let Vaughters concentrate on his job (and his rider's) and leave him alone! Better for everyone involved.

    Tulip: I thought exactly the same thing while watching this today! He was just in the way and the DS was actually doing a great job of being nice, but jeez, it made it hard for him to concentrate on doing his job!
