Soon it'll be: "Seymour closing fast. She might catch Lawrence before she leaves the massage tent."
When it doesn't, well... 16 guys rode under 2:10 this year. 14 rode under 2:10 in 2014.
I've been a fan, but the way that dude laid down today, I'm team Lionel 4 lyfe.
Really impressive today, @Lionel Sanders

As for Sanders swim, this was more like a championship race (still not as deep) and there was no salt water to keep his ass floating like he had in Oceanside. There will be more fast, quality swimmers at a championship race (be it 70.3 or 140.6) who will create a larger, faster front group whom Sanders will never see in the water and then half those guys will create a very fast front pack on the bike that will take Sanders longer to bridge to if he ever gets there. If he can stay within spitting distance of Kienle the two of them can work together to try to bridge, but that's still going to be a herculean effort just to catch up to the front in time for the drag race on the run.
Sanders is a beast on the bike/run and I like rooting for him, however he only shaved about 30 seconds off Brownlee's lead on the bike despite Ali taking the back half pretty much on his own and Sanders working with Keinle. Come 70.3 worlds that front group will have at least Gomez, Brownlee and Frodo pushing the bike and likely running together - Sanders never sees them once the gun goes off unless there are some out and backs on the bike/run.

Ali also (playfully) called Kienle out for trying to cut in line at the Pro porta-potties haha
And if "I passed him three times and he surged back past me" isn't a slingshot/working together on the bike, what is it?

Fattest BQ on record--- *allegedly
2016 (and last) Rev3 Cedar Point champ- don't google the time though
But that's a lot of assumptions on my part, so I may just be making an ass out of myself.

I know the Canadians all worship Sanders, but they are much more polite about it.
