I mean first of all-Josh Hill did the quad in practice when they said nobody else did and James was first one and then during his semi they were wanting to see if he would do the quad and he did it as they were watching when he waved to crowd and they didn't even mention it. It's like come on guys.

Too bad Cody Webb didn't do it, I would have loved to see a guy on a Beta 2 stroke do it.

Josh got no love for being the first one to do that big quad in the center of the timing section......guess you gotta try and make the broadcast sound better. Dry

I mean overall they do a ok job but damn that quad thing pissed me off. Like other comment said, they were waiting for him to do it, then he did it-and they didn't say anything. It's like there is 3 guys sitting in the booth. They mentioned him waving to the crowd but didn't mention that it was the quad they been waiting on.

By the way-that quad was ridiculous.

I like Ralph just fine, but he does have a serious man crush on JS7.

He absolutely creams his pants whenever JS7 does anything. My buddy pointed it out to me. Just watch the next show and pay attention for it.

Emig is awesome in the booth. I have nothing to complain about. Sorry.

I loved when Ralph said about RV's holeshot that Emig was known to rip them and Emig replies "I used a big bore,20 years is too late to contest it". Awesome.

I like Emig also. Think he does a great job. Shaheen I just don't care for and I think McGrath and Ricky Carmicahel do an awful job. Overall can't complain though. I know it's not easy. It's just fun to dog on them now and then.

Last night, it seems more like Nicolletti was the object of his affection. Every time a Yamaha went down, Phil was the guy riding it according to Ralph. By my count, he raced both heats, one semi and the LCQ, and he crashed in all of them.

Who cares. If u don't like it. Mute it. Its amazing enough we get all these live races.

Back in the 70's, people bitched like u about football games. They aired a "silent" game, with no announcers cause everybody watching was so smart and felt they knew more than the announcers.

Turned out real successful. STFU.
