Question Where's ESPN, NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX...?

Hello everyone,

How is everyone keeping track of the TDF even though it's near the end?

As much as OLN as doing a honorable job of covering the TDF once again... you would think with Lance racing to accomplish 6 TDFs for the history books, it would get better coverage in the media. Sure I see tidbits here and there and I understand that cycling is pretty small but I just think the coverage is limited overall.

I'm getting most of the news and race events from the www.letour.fr and velonews.com websites along with the AP news releases from Yahoo! Sports. Tomorrow is the last day and LA is surely making news but on the ESPN homepage really nothing of Lance or the Tour is mentioned except for a little link and occasional random banners for it. I feel left out and wonder how everyone is keeping track, especially if you are in the US. I'm not sure what the coverage is like in Europe.

Aside from OLN and the internet, there really isn't much about Lance in the US.

www.cyclingnews.com is also a good site.
