SX? MX? Both?
The Shop
4 games for the guys in the NFL.
And he gets a full season???
Another reason to have a riders union.
Ohh well at least I can cheer for Trey!
Paperwork? Ending a legends career because of some fucking paperwork? Bullshit.
Sure, where do you draw the line? Where does it end? Right here. This is where the line is. It's fucking adderall people, not heroin. Stewart has paid his price, a "time served" of sorts.
This is the problem with America now adays. Everyone has their fingers in the pot making rules and making changes not a
single one of us wanted.
Who the fuck is WADA? who the fuck is
USADA? They are nothing more then an unwanted addition to our sport that is doing nothing but driving up the cost of ticket prices for us fans who struggle to afford seats for our families.
I have done my best to stay neutral on this topic, but I can't hold it in anymore. Im not even a huge stewart fan, i would feel the same if this happened to a privateer. WADA and USADA can get fucked.
I do not know why anyone who actually did any research could have concluded anything different would happen. EVERY time USADA or WADA has nailed someone for amphetamines, the penalty has been 12 months or more. Why would James be any different?
It is especially brutal for James, because he was not trying to cheat. If his use was not legitimate, he would not have received a TUE, regardless of when he applied for it. The WADA TUE process is very strict. But he did not follow the rules. A TUE is essentially a permission request...and you can not ask permission AFTER the fact. He threw away his career out of sheer ignorance and irresponsibility.
Those of you getting mad a WADA get a grip. The FIM and FELD are the ones who did this. They made the bed they now have to sleep in. This is what they signed up for, and it is their fault for not making 100% certain the stars in the sport understood what they rules were. Once FELD went with an FIM sanction, the stage was set. WADA can not apply a different set of rules for our sport.
Pit Row
ie, if it took 2 months to decide, and gave him an 6 month ban, then that's that, he can race. If they give him a year plus, or then he's in trouble. If it's a year, that could be first few rounds of outdoors too. If it's an amount of races, maybe that's both but I'd doubt it.
Too bad the riders don't have a union to represent them like the NBA & NFL. I know it's a isolated incident but I'm sure there is going to be many instances in the future where riders could benefit from having one.
GOOD THING THE AMA RUNS SHIT NOW A DAYS
Stewart never gets the exemption.
FIM suspends him albeit harshly.
Fans freak out and call BS.
What kind of fucked up logic is that? Grow up you butt hurt Stew fans. We're all bummed but let's not act like pouting little kids because our favorite rider got in trouble for doing something he could of avoided. My god....
