The question is, after the fight, REGARLDLESS of the outcome, do you shake his hand and bury the hatchet, or do you still walk around with your Jilted Lover Hate on.

He and I have had some really positive interactions, most recently at St. George 70.3. (Here and Here)

bwahahahahahaha

Since I was hurt and it was Cinco de Mayo, my buddy and I (in support of our friends who did the race) donned the Sombreros. We had a better interaction with LS...such as this pic.

I just watched that clip. That’s stuff I’d say to a good friend who knows that I’m just razzing. I hope they’re friends irl, cuz if not ... we’ll...

Kiley can correct me if I’m wrong but I think he dubbed that over an existing video.

But it’s arguably more funny if I’m wrong.

I expect it at the major team sports, where it's "us vs them". It's out of place at a triathlon, running race, or similar event.

Stop repeating that piece of BS. There's photographic evidence that Jan was probably trolling regarding the vegan thing, because he can be seen eating meat and/or fish.
Also, he was carrying a significant injury into Kona which flared up during the bike leg.

Seriously, that Jan Vegan line needs to die.

He was cutting weight hours before an IM Race. Let that sink in. Read your own comment again. If you still think you/LS might be right, there's no hope for you.

I just watched the video that Lionel Sanders posted after this most recent race on YouTube. As we've all noted he's way too lean and he briefly even touches on possibly having a slight and I reiterate slight eating disorder. He says all the right things and acts like he's going to make the corrections but his body language says something entirely different.IMO! This is going to be a issue!!!!!!

Much like the Jan and carrying a significant injury into Kona and flared up on the bike BS...

Training at such a level is going to be hard on your body. His wide knees and his hitch are not going away anytime soon as those are hard problems to fix overnight. It will surely be interesting to see how he does in Kona this year. I for one am ready to get the show on the road but we have a ways yet.

It is indeed very real! Or someone out of nowhere get the win. This is the cool thing about the sport you really never now. Logic says Frodo, Gomez and Lange will fight for top 3! But as last year you never know who will feel good or feel bad or a flat. Last year 3rd place was almost unknown!

If only you didn’t have a tadpole ass to back up that wolverine mouth. Could have been in some $$ (and bragging rights for A YEAR over Monty).

Haha I know. That could have been epic!
I also wasn't expecting it to be that crazy.
