Why is this Andy Bayer's worst nightmare? Bayer has a PR 7 seconds faster in the steeple. Not a huge margin, but an 8:14 steeple guy has quite a few people to worry about, not sure he needs to worry about one more with a slower pr than him.
3 spots looks like this for visual learners:
Jager (if healthy)
Bor
Kebeini
Rotich
Bayer
I think the most astonishing thing about this is that you let folk who are not citizens join the armed forces.
in my country, becoming a citizen would be a requirement for joining the armed forces.
cheers.
- Lickety Citizenship Certified: OK, the leading WCAP-hater in the history of LetsRun formally certifies Rotich as legal immigration. He came, he graduated, he enlisted in the Reserves and actually serves as a Soldier --- UNLIKE WCAPers. Well done!
- That said, on the other side of the coin, we simply contribute to Kenya's "Brain Drain."
- Foreign Soldier: I don't know what country this dude says he's from, but he's MOST LIKELY dead wrong unless your from Canada .... like they need an Army anyway. See below:
* French - Foreign Legion
* Australia - Absolutely ... they're even recruiting officers.
* England - Yup
* NZ - as long as you've served in UK, Australian, USA or Canadian Armed Forces or lived in their country for 5 x years.
Is Andy still training? Wouldn’t be surprised Nike dropped him just because they have steeples in BTC and Mason Ferlic? Haven’t seen him compete at all Indoors. Anybody have an update?

Again, bayer has a PR 7 seconds faster than Rotich. He was already going to be competing for a spot against other guys, this is just potentially one more guy to worry about, it doesn't seem like a nightmare, that seems a bit of an exaggeration.

When you're the largest military in the world. You need all the help you can get. Especially considering how a lot of young Americans aren't fit enough to serve or interested in serving.

Bone spurs a big problem.
Eh. Rotich hasn’t done anything particularly notable in the past few years and his PR is from 2013. Shouldn’t be a problem for Bayer.
Word around Bloomington is that Andy is wicked fit.
It will be exciting to see so many American's compete at the Steeple.

A: click bait
Jobros have to build dramatic narrative constantly and centering it on a WASP individual, preferably make, is imperative.
Hey Lickety Split:" he's MOST LIKELY dead wrong unless your from Canada". He may be wrong but you're not right.

You know there are more countries in the world than the US, Canada, France, Australia, England, and New Zealand, right?

America hasn't been run by Americans since WWII. Look at the history of The Immigration Act of 1965. It wasn't from Ted Kennedy. He was a freshman senator who was ordered to step up and be a sponsor of the legislation brought forth by Emanuel Celler and Jacob Javitz. They were backed by the same people and forces who now also relentlessly back third world "refugees" and illegal aliens pouring into the West, yet also insist on massive walls, protection, and now DNA testing for the land they claim allegiance to, and it isn't in the West. Just do 15 minutes of research and you'll see why this goes on.
Do 15 minutes of research and it will also become clear just why E. Africans and certain other third world countries and peoples are allowed, indeed encouraged to cheat while enjoying a lot of protection from bribed officials and manipulated test results, never mind the MSM which is currently run by the same hypocrites noted above.

Link to something that explains this (To get Started)
I always thought the 1965 Immigration Act was because Americans demanded more diversity, to have a wider variety of restaurants to go to/food to eat.
The only thing I ask of Immigrants to the USA, is to love the USA Unconditionally (My Country right or wrong is still my Country) In a Nathan Hale way, meaning when faced with execution, say and think this (My only regret is that I have but one life to give to my country, the USA)

This guy is so stupid.
- Rotich will apply and likely be accepted to WCAP
- Most WCAPers have served much much longer than Rotich. All of the Bors served for years before getting into WCAP with Jukius Bor being deployed to Afghanistan

If Rotich does indeed go to WCAP, it will make making the Olympic steeple team extremely tough.
Frerichs just ran 15:17 or something. She gonna beat them all.
(Seriously folks- coburn couldn’t run that fast and she keeps falling in her races. I hope emma has a great year, but frerichs might completely whoop her @ss in 2019)
