NBC Gold stream not live yet? Says "coverage will begin shortly" but should've began 10 minutes ago.

I’m not so sure, I’ll give you tomac, musquin , barcia, and roczen. But it goes south real quick after that. Bagettt, bloss, peick, Cunningham, Webb. Top 5 isn’t guaranteed, but it isn’t that big a stretch. Now in the GPs? Probably wouldn’t sniff the top 10.

I'm not sure how many folks have asserted that he would. But in my books, finishing up front in a mud race is pretty damn impressive. Hell, finishing a national is pretty damn impressive. His winning days may be over but there's 35 guys that finished behind him that are impressed...and maybe a little depressed. Can't we just enjoy having him in the mix while he still wants to be there.

I think Roger is more of a Yoda fan, "There is no try, there is only 'do or do not'...".

Yeah it doesn't look all that bad now, relatively speaking of course.. I would die riding that.
