Come on..not EVERY race is worth whooping it up over. You know I root for you and the folks I know in these tourneys, but unless it's a stretch duel with a contest on the line, I'm not going to dramatize the situation. But I guess everyone's personality is just different.

I think the one time I got camera time that wasn't background or a photobomb was when I was chatting with MB -- they showed no interest in the vast majority of the contestants. <br />Man did some of those guys in the Beychok posse whoop it up during races -- I swear after day 1 I thought their whole table had to be 1-5 on the leaderboard. But I heard they were rooting for each other and/or just being overly enthusiastic for the show. <br />I'm not sure what they'll do at Monmouth,maybe they'll follow a couple predetermined people again or maybe they'll branch out. You can probably get away with not shaving and wearing your ripped "Greasy Tony's" t-shirt, circa 1991. Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06753265916892083288noreply@blogger.com
