Stuff Someone Said: Bob Roll
There i was watching the 8th stage of this years' Tour de France, you know, the highlight reel that can always be found in YouTube, and a trio of breakaway riders were in their last moments of freedom - Tadje Pogacar's UAE team were in hot pursuit, and there was little doubt the instigators would not survive much longer on their own. When one of the three struck out on his own, the other two were caught on the tip of a dilemma - chase or wait? It was at that moment that commentator, Bob Roll, said " Is the juice worth the squeeze?" The saying was new to me, and i wondered if it was something that Bobke had heard before, or something that he had come up with spur of the moment. Somewhat familiar with his wit, i knew it could be either one of those. Anyway, it is a good saying, and i look forward to using it sometime soon out on the road. And yes, the three, then one, failed to make it to the line in time for final glory, but afterward I did not hear anyone ask them if...
