NBC broadcasting the 21st of 21 stages of the Tour de France. - 07/28/19 07:09 PM
This is about, this is about, this is about the Stupidiest thing to broadcast in the entirety of sports,
Sure, after this stage the all day, unenventful finale of the near month long event, the Person who is winning for the last time will be the events winner,
But, Notoriously, the entire competition is decided on the days before this, in the mountain stages, where the time differentials are decided.
This is literally, Very close to literally
As If you decided to Broadcast a football game, any football game,
Beginning when the teams walk off the field from the final snap,
Or, Beginning to broadcast a football game after the players got together and dumped the Gatorade bucket over their coaches head,
Or AT LEAST, it's about like beginning a football Broadcast after one team begins the Kneel down formation for the final 3 snaps to wind down the clock after the game is decided.
Did they cover the other 21 stages, oh yeah but only on some crazy cable channel, they put this part on Regular NBC network and this stage alone?
It's completely ridiculous
There is virtually no strategy or actual racing going on in a final stage, with the exception of sprinters points, which in an average year may already be decided anyway it really doesn't matter, at all.
