@wheretakengame USA state today, 12 May 2024, is incorrect. The Alabama Hills are in California. They are the foothills of the Sierra mountains. Lone Pine is a town in valley of those foothills. Far from the state of Alabama.
@aquateccarpet@michaelschwab13 He's not looking too good after last night (WS game 4). Four pitchers is three innings. None could settle in and get the job done.
@cardcaptain@Rainmaker1973 Even worse. Bison were intentionally extirpated (fortunately not 100% successfully), in effort to starve out the native tribes (mostly Cherokee), all sponsored by the US government.
@CharissaGrace15 @NBCSCycling I'd love to know what other coverage you can find in USA for the Tour and Vuelta, also other races exclusive to NBC here, such as Paris Roubaix.
@kaamran@LeTour@TamauPogi I don't see any reason why they cannot replace moto cams (only on crowded sections of mountain stages) with drone cameras. I've seen drone cameras follow mountain bikers through wooded areas. We have the technology! Send the motos ahead on those sections and use drone cams there.
@NBCSCycling@sam_bewley@brentbookwalter I think having a strong team on the flats is more important for GC than having strong climbers. Jumbo Visma has both, but is leaning toward stronger in the flats. This gives Jonas V. more protection and easier riding on the flats between climbs and on those longer, windy days.
@20korg Loudness wars had/has undesirable results, but it's not nearly the destroyer of artistic music as is Autotune. I'm waiting for a @20korg episode on that.
@LakotaMan1 There is some thought that at least some early native Americans arrived to this continent by boat along the pacific coast. I'm not so sure boat is the defining vehicle. Plus, recently many arrive on planes.
