...it should probably be this one. Eli Tomac, Jason Anderson, and Blake Baggett. There are some funny comments, and equally funny body language.

Pretty good! They didn't really seem to want to talk about the trash talking. Haha

Jason Anderson has to be the coolest guy to hang out with at the track!

The next time they say "may the best man win" ask them "well who's the best man?" Smile

Anderson shoulda said "cool well I guess I am gonna win" and then laughed!

Just watched it now. I loved watching the faces. Good to see the hard questions asked. This is going to be a good series.

Several cringe-worthy statements in there. That had to be an awkward 10 minutes for them.

Y'all need to bring some better questions though.

These three are the best thing to happen to the sport in many years. A little "spirited talking" builds and brings drama and excitement to the races.

Just like in last year's election between President Trump and the notorious HRC ..........spirited debate in back! Cool

Would rather have BB, ET or JA for president! Great press conference - best in a long time. JA had BB squirming more than once to the amusement of ET3.

I thought the body language and squirming spoke loud and clear. The dynamics of that presser was entertaining to watch.

I couldnt decipher Blakes answer about his comments.

Let the games begin. I can't wait to see BB and JA head to head in a race. Something tells me BB would come out on top, even with JA's aggressive riding. I also think BB will be a little quieter from here on out. Tomac was just smiling, thinkin to himself, i'll just let these two get mired down in the crap and i'll do my thing, classy.

Haha that was pretty good, only one who looked comfortable up there was JA as he clearly gives no fucks. ET wanted nothing to do with any of that.

Interesting how Blake has spun breaking people into having a great job and having fun, maybe he got some backlash for the talk? Personally I didn't mind it, it was maybe a little premature but I guess you have to twist the knife when you get it in the guy right?

BB didn't look all that happy. Which is alright by me.

Yeah but he's not as fast so he better hope that he can start up front and have Barcia run defense or else Tomac and Baggett will be passing him quite a bit

Nothing wrong with some trash talk! It's to bad Webb and Marvin aren't in there as well. The sport needs rivalries.

Baggett is good for the sport, he says what he feels and does it with a sence of humor. Much like Hannah did back in the day. It is refreshing to hear a guy that can say he had nothing for the first two in the first moto no excuses just man up. He has shown that he can come through the pack better than his competation not just once but twice. Tomac needs to be aware of Baggetts ability to make a good day out of a bad situation. This looks to be a good series for the fans, three great riders and three great personalities. What more could we ask for?

What's funny to me is that people say they want personalities...and rivalries...but then when someone steps out of line they sort of lose their minds. Smile

Personally, I think stuff like this is good for the sport. Look at Hannah and Howerton BITD. The only difference was, there was no social media, and no forums to chat about it. Smile

This may shock you, but multiple people use this forum, each capable of having their own wants.

I just think a lot of people, including myself thought him running his mouth was a little premature, especially when you compare his results to who he was talking about. I didn't necessarily have a problem with it, just thought he maybe should have waited to unleash the beast haha. Look at Kenny, he didn't always have that chip on his shoulder and say some of the things he does, but when he started dominating last year he earned that right and has ran with it.

You can show personality without making yourself look like a tool.

Guy B,

Wonder how some of these youngsters would have made it back in the day when unless you were at the race you had to wait until Wednesday or Thursday to find out who won!
