i think he knows this is his shot at a championships and getting a rider for 2010. hope the best for him and hope he can keep it together
And Hepler?
Tedesco has a National Championship and two Lites SX titles, and he's not as good as Hepler and Lawrence?
Well Davi, maybe if some of us local racers had a great grandpapi's that left the family a few hundred acres of an ex-slavery plantation and plenty of money, we would be where you are today and could "do it". You've ridden bikes all your life and was always supported by other people. Good for you, I'm happy it worked out for you like it did. But get over yourself, Buford. You're privileged, walk away humble.
This whole argument of "wahhh well he only won beacuse so and so if hurt" is bullshit!!
Nobody counted last year's Lombardi Trophy as a tainted championship just because Tom Brady was hurt did they?
A championship is worth the same no matter who is out there..it means you were the best out of all of the competition..
A moto win is hard enough to come by, and the guy wins an overall and still gets no respect..

He has had some tough injuries the last few years and he even tried to race back into shape while injured and we all know how that usually ends up. And racing with injuries, not getting the results your hoping for really kills confidence and with dwindeling confidence your pretty much hosed until you get back on top; which he did a few weeks ago.
I've never been a big IT fan but I think he's getting his confidence back and finally healthy so he could definitely contend. This year for sure, and thats all that matters right now.
You should go.
Incentive contracts? Why the fuck would you care?
The riders build a resume and negotiate a pay based off that.
So tell me, Do you think your check will Deposit on Friday???? Try it and let me know.
Milsaps got his check because he has a contract. In the real world he would be picking up cans on the interstate.
Best Regards,
MR!!! Super-Negative Douche.
I think people put too much presure on him to be "that guy". When he turned Pro I thought he would do ok, but nothing like what some people were trying to make him out to be.
Either way, I hope he can come back and do well.

Pit Row
Most of the attackers have never had to ride injured with the best MX/SX athletes in the world yet alone at their local track.
Even if the physical injury is in the healing process the mental side can and does take much longer to bring the athlete back to 100% ready to win.
Next time someone feels that it should be easy to race against the best with an injury and perform up to everyone elses standards try this.
Break your hand and go look for a fight. But make sure to bring everyone that knows you to watch. I'm sure your confidence will be fine and you will fight to your expectations.
Oh, and please post a video so we can make sure you weren't just fighting for the money.

Not all athletes come across the way some feel they should, yet inside they all want to win.
Davi is no different.
Alan Gerkey
I watched him come to a local race a few years back with a nice big motor home and guess what, he wasnt in it all day long.
He was out in the pits walking around and under the pavilon at the track most of the day, talking with anyone who would approach him.
And man was he awsome on that track.
Mabey he had a bad moment and its to bad a kid had to see it, but it happens. There is no way you can say that kid is a dick though.
RMZ:
Stealing? Just because you dont think it looks like he is trying? Wow.......try not to judge somone like that untill you walk in their shoes, mabey you wont be so bitter. Better yet, go pound some motos and remember how hard this sport is.
When the majority of public perception is a bad image, maybe there's something to it and vice versa.
In this case, I don't think the majority feels that way. Sure, everyone has bad moments, but IMO, Daveys are minimal comparatively speaking.
He's a good guy to me and I hope he does well.
Just curious
As for you assholes trashing these riders, most of you have no idea what the hell you're talking about.
Yes, Davi has bad days like we all do. Yes, Davi has issues going on that none of you are aware of but still gets the finishes he does.
Top 5 sucks now?
Top 10 sucks now?
Podium finishes suck now?
So if you don't win, you suck? Is that really how you people see it?
There is a lot of shit going on that you NEVER hear and NEVER SEE, because it's really none of your business.
But if you think Davi "sucks" you are obviously a moron and don't pay attention.
What matters is what his bosses think, and if they think he's a waste, they'll either can him at the end of the contract or even tell him to stay home to recover from whatever his problem is...and this applies to all riders and teams. It still costs money to fly a rider and mechanic as well as room, feed, rental cars and more.
Morons
Oh, one last thing, many times when a rider changes teams, it's THE RIDERS DECISION, not that he wasn't "re-signed." That goes back to the "There is a lot of shit going on that you NEVER hear and NEVER SEE, because it's really none of your business."
Im not defending the Millsaps trashers, its clear he isnt healthy, you dont go from winning to not being in it for no real reason. But the fact of the matter is, he is a professional, his job is to be watched by fans, so it comes with the territory. If he cant handle it thats his issue.
Since he has an upcoming fight, Roy Jones has fought a career with bad hands, fought fights with one good hand, as have many. He says the net trash talkers couldn't do it, well no doubt, we couldn't do it healthy and that's why we're not pro mx riders. To say we can't do it is a point not worth making but many of us do ride hurt at whatever level we compete, but I still don't hear anyone comparing themselves to these guys.
We go to work sick or ill, some have no choice and actually have to do physical labor while injured to pay the bills. Most of the time they're performance is criticized by coworkers and a boss that doesn't care if they're aggravating an injury, only that it isn't an excuse for poor job performance. Even guys hurt at work are subject to this.
The only internet trash talkers he should reference are either pros that do what they accuse him of doing or normal guys that conduct their professional lives the same way they say he does.
