Gomez and POTN clearly bumps Papa Clem which in turn bumped a closing Muskett Man.

The guy can really cheat good. I mean he is the best at it. I haven't seen a head-on, but it would take something like that to hold 2nd place.

Bumping isn't against the rules. Who was blocked from running on, or was taken out?

from what i saw on the overhead, it was a pretty significant bump. but...the stewards were probably all in shock.

I saw the blimp shot. That's Garret going all in with his sideways move. He threatens to come all the way over, but doesn't. The other guy always buys that move (like this guy did.) Give him credit. Guy has wicked intimidation stuff. Who got suckered? Bejarano? LOL..Like Bejarano hasn't seen that move from GOGO once a week? Kind of like some pitchers curveball. Know it's coming, but it's just too good.
