Anyone watch Fleche Wallone on Peacock?
Peacock does not cover all the spring classics, but I had been enjoying the races they did cover. I've experienced a whole gamut of announcers from Anthony McC and Hannah, to the two Steves, to Bob and Christian, to Bob and Phil (for Paris Robaix).
Phil makes some mistakes, but I still prefer his respectful commentary and heartfelt stories to some of the other announcers.
Fast forward, I thought Fleche Wallone was the worst commentary I've heard recently as Peacock paired Chris Horner with Bob. Chris was running his mouth continuously like a lawn mower engine on redline with the thottle body stuck open. Toward the finish, he and Bob were both talking excitedly at the same time and I couldn't really understand half of what either was saying. Had to turn the volume way down on the TV. Seemed like Chris had wayyy too much coffee or perhaps was off his meds. Next time I hear CH, I will mute the sound completely.
