I think stewart believes he's on the same level of legend status as RC and MC. Am I the only one that doesnt see it that way

I believe he has/had the potential for that... but... well, he does have a place on the all time win list..

I don't see why James is being compared to RC or MC.

I honestly never believed Reed would win an outdoor title - I just didn't think he had a fire in his belly for one. I'm happy I was wrong, and I'd be happy if he won it this year. One great thing about this year - there are at least three guys who are co-equals in the favorites-to-win department, and they're all good guys. Whether it's Dungey, Reed or Villo who walks away with the big trophy, I'll be happy.

It's just a personal opinion, but I think once Villo gets his health issues straightened out, I really believe he's going to have a bit too much pure speed for the other two guys. Just my .02 worth...

Reed giving props to Dungey after the gas/mechanical (whatever it was) is another example why Reed has grown to become one of my favorites - attitude - attitude - attitude! Oh yeah, and he's pretty badass on a dirt scoot also...

Reeds a racer.........JS is not...........Reed has a passion for the sport that JS doesn't......Reed races because he enjoys it, JS races to make money. Not baggin' on JS, I just see a guy who has spent his entire life racing and has made a lot of money doing it but has kinda lost interest and is ready to live a life not 100% focused on racing.
Exactly!

But whatever, you have your opinion, thats ok. I just think he should race if he's a racer.

No doubt Stew's done a lot. He's a champ and definitely one of the fastest to swing a leg over an MX bike. But, you know he never lived up to the fans' expectations, whether those expectations were realistic or not. That's why there are the questions.

Racers like the GOAT, or Henry, or Stanton, all exceeded the fans' expectations. That's why you hear so few challenges to their retirements/absence.
