Phil's got a lot left in the tank, but he is slipping.
He's misidentifying riders, sometimes even using the names
of riders who retired like 10 years ago. Paul gently corrects
him to keep the misinformation to a minimum.

if he's slipping he's been slipping for ten years. when he makes a
slip (like calling wegmann wegmuller) we notice it, but he keeps the
flow going. bob roll might deliberate everything he says, but we're
also treated to long pauses in the middle of sentences.

I don't think Bobke ums and ahs that much. Bobke
also has a great memory for riders, palmares, and
course details. He's a caveman, yes, but a caveman
with a lot of smarts.
