Not to totally bash on current racers or anything, but I was thinking the other day how I like most AMA racers at the moment. There's not a lot of riders that I dislike. There's a few that I could take them or leave them. But there are a few that rub me the wrong way however. I don't hate them, they're just not my favorite. I have 3. For example, Cianciarulo. I know he is well liked but I've never really been a fan. Not a 100% sure why. I feel like he feels entitled at times. Even though he seems like a nice person. And also at the moment, Baggett. For his unnecessary comments he has made recently. But it does make for some entertainment. Another one I'll throw out there who is pretty well liked is Wilson. Back in the day when he got injured by connecting with Tomac. He got online and started tweeting lame things about Tomac. It was clear what Wilson really thought of Tomac off the track. Seemed like a bully. Never really rooted for him since then even though that was years ago and he was a kid.
I don't know much about the GPs, but I've always been "ehh" when it came to Herlings. Maybe for the same reasons as Cianciarulo.
So it seems like my listing are of pretty popular/likable riders...Just me or anyone else?

The Shop
Reed is someone I've never been much into either. I am all for a shit talker, and he is / has been an incredible asset to this sport, but his inability to own up to his own shortcomings has always worn me a bit thin.
I personally really want to see him pull off a successful title run.
I don't dislike any rider, but I'm jealous of anyone who gets more seat time than I do.
Pit Row
I've also never been much of a Barcia fan, I like to see him have success after what he's gone through but in SX this year IMO he had no business being out there with the way he was riding. He had zero capability of seeing past the position directly ahead of him and a lot of the time would end screwing another rider over and himself. Just seemed like a piss poor attitude to have for someone of his caliber. Not mention the other times he's made himself look silly, but I can't really blame him, I'm sure racing is a rollercoaster of emotions.
We all have our favorites. We all have those who aren't so much favorites. Who cares? Why can't we discuss it?
Personally I'm not a huge fan of Wilson because of his stupid comments about " why would my parents ever move to Canada... " ( because they were trying to make a better life for your family you spoiled entitled little whiner - instead of being upset maybe be thankful....... ) and his horribly FAKE Scottish accent.
Just my opinion.......
They get fresh bikes every week, factory suspension... New boots and gear every week, As well as the custom butt patches...it's just not fair... I stomp my feet in protest!!
They don't even clean their bikes after the races, just jump straight on a flight home...lol
This thread is stupid by the way.
The other they are the more respect I have.. it's not an easy sport as you get older.
Fake Scottish accent? Damn.
Let you in on a little secret, the more he's around his mom and dad...the thicker it gets; and, that's kinda funny. All the while, it makes sense. For a few years he wasn't around them as much as he is these days...so...there's always that.
Sean Connery would punch you in the face.
I'm jus' sayin'...
