Colten Mertens vs. Jake Berman is next week...



Until then, Team Quarterfinals workouts have been released and it's safe to say that John does not like them. Tyler's Internet is terrible so he drops off. Seth Page from Jumpship Training and Andrew Hiller join instead. John's mic isn't working so he sounds like a robot.



Seth and Hiller get their first crack at Blind Rankings. John walks through his Games Mountain revisited. Bettin' with the Boys works better than John's audio. The Rodecaster doesn't want to take a caller so we do our first attempt at CrossFit Games trivia with the trio. John hates the questions because he doesn't get any answers correct. Hiller wins.
