    Froome crashed early today... Looks sore on the left wrist and shoulder... Big for tomorrow with 20ks of shitty wet cobbles!!! Expect some sttacks on him at some point today and defiantly tomorrow.

    Amazing finish, going to have to watch it again to see who did what but seeing both Gerrens and Cav both eat the road was not a great way to start the Tour. Cav looks gone and I'm sure will have a lot to say about it but his team went waaayyy to early and left him exposed when the real sprint came. Interesting to see Froome finish so high on a sprint finish... The Poms Fing love the event with huge huge crowds turning out in Yorkshire.

    Ha yea true JJ he is the ultimate everything rider. Can do a bit of everything well but not 1 outstanding. In saying that he is only 24!!! Loving this already, old Gab Gate is in Whitby tomorrow night (the fish and chips were rubbish!) where I stopped in over New Years in 2008, and they are heading near Gordes where the goodly wife and I stopped in April on the honeymoon. Love seeing the scenery as much as the racing.

    Yup watched it as most have said, nothing new but what I really liked was seeing and hearing from the others; LeMond, Kimmage, Walsh, Hamilton etc (who I have read of) but was interesting to hear from them in some more detail in some cases. Kimmage I loved! In saying all of that f the cheats, cant wait for tonight!!! Love how Cav has set his whole year on tonight, winning stage 1 in his mums home town. Will he beat the big Greip?

    Yes I missed that Jazza, too busy catching up on Game of Thrones.... will be chasing it up on iveiw when the good lady wife is out.

    yes I was the same Jack, really looking forward to seeing the little Q have a real crack this year. Without him I fear a Sky domination again. And of course Impey has denied it all.

    JJ the little Q has been left out of the Tour. Movistar are leaving him for the Vetula. Disappointing as even though he rode the giro he dominated it so thoroughly I thought he was a chance to push Froome for yellow. Next year he will be hard to stop. Sad to see Impy from OGE has tested positive for something in South Africa.

    Fair old effort from Matthews as captain, 4/ in the first in guns them 160 in the Lankan 2nd dig. That is a captains test match.

    Nope the comeback Kings.... Do it again in OT. Insane. Such a quality team and such a surly old salty coach.

    100 games to go, haha isn't that nuts. And the A's for all of there in season ability won't make it past the Divisonal round because of the budget constraints in the toilet stadium.

    Gebus, how are the Kings going?! If they win the series that's 2 out of 3 years and a true quality team.

    Fair old series in the West. Kings looked dead on their skates, I thought the Hawks were skating all over them and it was just time before they got the shot on goal they needed... Bang Kings score. Game. Series. Now they need to get it together for the final series. Rangers to win the first and maybe second but Kings to win it all.

    Would be amazed if the Kings did not win it all, they look a step above. Hawks as someone said as the playoffs started just step up when the beards come out. Habs rangers game today was nuts.

    Was wondering if that was going to be any good Jazza. Started a tv series on a plane flight recently called Peaky Blinders. Set in post WW1 Birmingham about the local gangs. Interesting, hard. Sam Niell is one of the main characters. Also got back into Gavin and Stacey with the wife, a great little UK comedy about an Essex boy who falls for a Welsh girl. Very amusing, Essex and Welsh stereotypes.

    Looking forward to tonight, caught up on the recorded sessions today. Cadel looks good but the little Columbian Q is a real danger he looked very relaxed last night. Can't wait to see the final stage as well, have just got back from Europe and spent a little bit if time in the stunning Trieste. Wonderful place.

    Funny how things can turn so quickly, start of the season it was all about improvement. It exploded from there and finished with a bang in the regular season. Would have taken just missing finals before the year started but to have finished top was totally unexpected. The series started well but we just had to many injuries and too young a team and our ability to not allow high scores was always going to hurt us. Would have been great to make it into the second leg but this will set us up for next season where the expectations will be much higher. Wow those Sharks just can't seem to get it right can they, big series loss for them. I am tipping the Ducks or Kings to win it all but in hockey who knows.

    .... Dropped the last 2 games, Barrie has been a big loss. Struggling to put the puck in the net now even with the defence tightening up. Wild have adjusted well.
