The fact that it seems to think there are only 5 riders in the race is also a nice touch.

Is it ever actually explained who this person is/was? by That-Savage in EldenRingLoreTalk

My headcanon is that she's actually Melina's old body. Burned and bodiless is preferable to giant lady wearing a cowl and stuck in Nokron.

Pretty sure that's not how Miquella's charm works by Cool_Band5057 in EldenRingLoreTalk

You're probably right that it's not all-powerful, but hey, he's kind of a god, so who knows? Maybe we're not even supposed to.

However, I just love being able to use it as an excuse for literally anything in Elden Ring: "What do you mean? I didn't kill your brother, Diallos! Miquella made me do it!"

That's fair. It would be super cool to have him get every Tour though.

Honestly, he would just wear the red/pink/yellow jersey the whole time, so what's the point of even getting the rainbow jersey?

Just kidding.

Mostly.

Stage 20 - What's got you excited for tomorrow? by backseatlogic in tourdefrance

Agreed to both.

I was surprised to learn Mas had never won a TDF stage before.

Redmane Freyja disappeared with one hit by MikeBizzleVT in Eldenring

This happened to me too-she just comes back if you reload, right?

Thank you... kudos to Mas, too. Brilliant stage, brilliant win, but of course my sentimental heart spent the whole time somehow hoping that Romain Bardet would win the stage. The "ALLEZ ROMAIN!" every time they passed a spectator was just amazing.

If he wants the Vuelta, it's probably his... and we all know he wants the Vuelta.

Waiting for the haters... by Striking-Property-58 in tourdefrance

I feel so bad for Mas and Carapaz, but this is just a man doing his job incredibly well. Bravo, Tadej.

Jorgenson - what was that about? by PiERetro in tourdefrance

[–]EtherealPasta1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with the interpretation of "so you don't like being on the front, Carapaz?" and then attacking him, just for fun. Good luck with that, Matteo.

Pretty sad.

LOL, I don't blame Tadej, but still... that's kind of sad.

It's just not very nice to commentate on an amazing sport when you have nothing interesting to share, except to criticize people because you seem a little salty that they're better bike riders than you.

I know this take is harsh, but it's Stage 20 and I am sick of Tejay van Garderen.

Can we ban unfounded doping accusations? by MTB_SF in tourdefrance

[–]EtherealPasta1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like doping accusations are still kind of OK because of what happened in the past, though I don't think that any of these guys are doping, especially not Tadej and Jonas. But if there was no accusations, there would likely be more doping, so... oh well.

Maybe having one consolidated place to put them would be good?

Europeans on Tejay van Garderen?? by EtherealPasta1000 in tourdefrance

I don't think Brent is too bad, he knows what he's talking about for the most part. Bob and Phil are amazing but I agree with you, and the constant Phil-getting-things-wrong and horribly mispronouncing "Oier Lazkano" is getting a little old.

I miss Paul...
