|   Where is Kristen Gum? | lithiapark
Sep 7, 2003 5:57 PM | | I caught the coverage of the Vuelta today, and was pleased to see Sherwin/Liggett/Bobke in the booth. I sort of got used to Ms. Gum during the TDF, and my wife liked her so it was easier to get to watch 3 hours of the tour each nite for 3 weeks. I'd like to have her back if for no other reason than that. I at least thought she tried hard, but occaisionally got on the nerves of the boys, except Bobke. She was at least able to go with the flow whenever he got on a Roll. |

Sep 9, 2003 5:33 PM | | This chick does not have a clue about bike racing. I got sick and tired of her calling the Postal Team the "Boys" and insisting that TH was going to win the TDF.
She adds flavor by being a woman, but is clueless!

| Sherwin & Liggett often call the riders "the boys". | innergel

And I'll take Kirstn Gum and day over Adrian Karsten. That Frankenstein looking moron was the second worst commentator in the history of sports, after Brent Musburger. |
