You're not the only one. One question : - Where is Robbie McEwen? He is a good sprinter but I cannot find him from the 1st few stage.

I miss Mario Cipollini (the best sprinter) & Marco Pantari (the best climber).

Alex hing,

Robbie is still around. He was 5th in 3rd stage, 2nd in 13th stage and 145th in 14th stage?!?  

I am following a Canadian named Ryder Hesjedal who's in his first TDF.  He is the first Canadian riding the TDF since Gord Fraser rode in 1997 with the small French team, La Mutuelle de Seine et Marne.  He's hanging in there so far.  He lost some time and placings the last couple of days and is in 94th after stage 8.  Maybe he will have some good days in the mountains as he is very thin and was a world-cup mountain bike racer previously.

He updates his website once in a while: http://www.ryderhesjedal.ca

Canadian in TDF , too much Italian & Spanish guys. If Ryder is thin, then he should be a good climber. He should have good result coz climber has the advantage in the later stage of TDF, too much maintain for them to climb.

Pay attention to Kim Kirchen, he is good this year.

yungwai hing,

Not really, only the World Series and when the Toronto Bluejays won the World Series back in the 90s.  Do you?  I LOVE watching ice hockey and Canadian Football more.

Oh yes, I follow MLB basically on a daily basis. My favourite team is, sorry to say, the evil empire. But I also root for some individual players in the game, lately Josh Hamilton. He is a true great story and I have been rooting for him since he started his rehabilitation 3 years ago. If you are interested go check out these 2 well-written articles and you can see what a difference 2 years made for this gifted ballplayer.

2 years earlier, he is trying to climb from the hell:

and now he is the cover story of SI:
http://vault.sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/cover/featured/10956/index.htm

And you may also want to check out the 28 homers he hit in the 1st round of this year's Homerun Derby. HR derby may be something no more than a batting practice aiming for the fence, but this BP is definitely eye-opening:

Seems like you root for Canadian teams. Have you been living there for a while? Well the Blue Jays is ok and I love Roy Halladay (What a workhorse!!). But their managment seems to be making too many mistakes in acquisition of position players that waste some very good pitching.

單車上山都好好睇, 印象最深係00年TDF Armstrong Vs Pantani, 睇D條片你就知道上斜幾辛苦 (尤其是當後面有人緊纏住你唔放)

我雖然唔係好識睇，但晚晚都追看。

上山好精彩 。

同隊車手如何聯手攻敵也好精彩。

觀眾的熱情和香港人對運動員的冷淡真有天壤之別 。

yungwai hing, I lived in Canada since the mid 70s.  My parents, brother and sister still live there. We moved down to Vegas since 2000.  I am very surprised that you know how to watch baseball.  Isn't it only Taiwanese, Japanese and Koreans are baseball fans in Asia.  Where did you learn it from?  Baseball and basketball aren't popular in Canada.  That is why nobody cared when the Montreal Expos moved to Washington.  We have a Triple A farm team, the Las Vegas 51s here (parent club is the LA Dodgers).  I might go watch the LA Angels of Anaheim play agaist the Texas Rangers on August 30th (the day before I run the Disneyland 1/2 marathon in Anaheim) if it is not too hot.  You know, part of the 1/2 marathon course is to run behind the homebase inside the Angel Stadium.  

Here is a couple of photos I took last year inside the Angel Stadium.  In the 2nd photo, can you see me taking the photo in the big Jumbotron?  So cool!!

lv兄，baseball的確都唔係好流行
不過好多人都識睇
有時香港既卡通或者漫畫(當然係日本出品啦)都有以baseball做主題

我自己以前讀u時有睇過softball比賽，所以都識睇baseball
