Professionalism At it's Best

Watching Cancellara clean his face with what appeared to be a dirty oven glove after becoming runner up at Paris Roubaix was a priceless moment in professional sport.

The last time I remember being so impressed was when Steven Gerard was interviewed leaving the stadium in Munich after England's 5-1 demolition of Germany on September 1, 2001. Gerard was carrying his kit slung over his shoulder in a black bin bag!

The Stranglers

Seriously off topic today, trying to stop thinking about watching 4 hours of Paris Roubaix this evening. Check out this classic clip from post punk Stranglers performing in Athens in 1985. Jean Jacques Burnel is a great bass guitarist.
