The other thing is: there wasn't much competition back then.

In today's information age, there are so many types of sports/
entertainment competing for one's attention. Bike racing in North
America will probably forever remain a niche bit of entertainment.
It's not flash/bang enough.


Dumbass,

Only Michael Ball can change that. (Anorexic Drew Carey
is wonderful and all, but that isn't his game plan.)

We need more Balls.

Ball will have a tough time changing that. First of all, there's an
inherent problem when the team owner is more popular than any of his
racers. At least with Cipollini, the show was during the race. With
Ball, it takes place 3 days later on cycleto.com.
