He did have a good go at giving a sort of running commentary, but then after the race there was a half hour where we listened to him typing and breathing into the microphone, without any response or any inclincation of what was actually going on...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I think the majority of folks where standing around in IM, waiting for something to happen. Very unclear , and confusing... While it's a good start, let's hope they can better that next year..</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Marsoups</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 06 Nov 2007 17:05:27 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
