(say this with lots of sarcasm)

I wonder if they will show more then 30min of actual racing this time?

12

lots and lots of Macca and Michellie Jones time. they just showed the same quote for the 2nd time. he’s not cocky, just passionate. why isn’t he using an aero helmet like everybody else?

Also, a 70-some year old nun who’s done over 20 IMs.

This Stadler fella is quite quick on the bike, though. Damn. I think he’ll win :wink:

there is a reason why I’m watching Futbol de la Liga Mexicana and it’s not b/c I can speak or understand more than 20 words in spanish. Not that the IM is less exciting then futbol of course.

How is the little on doing? When are you coming out so I can buy you a few beers?

that surely makes more sense than some of the stuff Al T says.

Little one’s doing great. At great grandma’s house right now. the silence is deafening, but I’m holding up ok :slight_smile:

Mmmm beer. Not sure when we’ll make it out there. Maybe next spring - I had planned on Valley of the Sun this year but that fell through.

Damnit, made me cry about 15 times! Even though I’ve seen it before, being in the midst of my peak week for IMC, my emotions are fragile! :slight_smile:

When they showed somebody finish I wish they would have showed the clock. I have that curiousity.

Also it would be nice to know how they made it to Hawaii. I know the Blais disciple hit the lottery, but how about some of the other people.

There was way too much Macca and I actually like him vs. Stadler. Them embracing at the finish line and then ripping each other to shreds in the blog/press was amusing.

I would have been so unhappy if I had to wait for somebody to roll across the finish line. I understand the ALS stuff, but look at the coverage and notice the racers behind them stopping and waiting for the dork to finish. This is hopefully a trend that will not continue. Find some other way to show support than blocking the finish line.

Does anyone know if we can get the full thing on the internet somewhere without paying NBC $39?

Did anyone record it??? I’ll pay you for a copy!

We thought it started at 4 so we missed all but the last half hour.

Thanks!!!
