Here's a picture of Brian and it sure doesn't look like Eddy to me.

And for those who seem to think that there are other commentators in the
world check out this article:

http://www.esquire.com/the-side/opinion/bobroll070907

And by ALL means watch the short commercial in the middle of that article.
What a hoot!

One outstanding Rollism:

"The best moment of racing for '04 shouldn't be too tough to guess. It was
into Le Grand Bornand at the Tour de France when it seemed certain Andreas
Kloden would win the stage. From the helicopter shot on TV screens all over
the world, it was first a shadow that seemed to pull alongside Kloden, then
a yellow jersey, then a man on a mission of human performance that springs
from the heart of hope. Then suddenly, it was Lance Armstrong who snatched a
thrilling stage win as much for his faithful lieutenant Floyd Landis, as for
himself. It still chills me and brings brightness to these dark winter
days."
