A sports blog by and for Midwest Sports Fans
Anyone who has small children and basic cable knows that Phineas & Ferb is one of the best shows on television and one of the top 5 children’s cartoons of all time. This week’s episode, “Tour de Ferb,” features 3-time Tour de France winner Greg LeMond. Is Disney afraid to touch Lance Armstrong? I don’t know, but it’s good to see Greg LeMond get his due.
Here’s a picture of LeMond with Baljeet:
Miguel Indurain never got to be on Phineas & Ferb

Totally caught me by surprise while watching it. Thought it was especially funny when LeMond made multiple references to being confused with a turkey and shot by his brother-in-law!
