Does anyone know what the "real" story is with JLAW?

Why would he continue throwing opportunities away?

He must be running out of money one would think?

What has he done recently? I haven't heard anything about him around here in a long time. Have you heard any rumors?

Nothing. and that is my very point - he is always in the news historically

Be cool if a journalist actually got to the bottom of this. How hard could it be?

well, when supposely your agent cant get ahold of you for over 3 weekks right before your return to racing.. i think it might be a lil hard for moto journalists to get at him..

if anyone has a chance it be Swapmoto.. arent him and Jlaw "friends"..

I guess I tend to focus on guys who are at the track and chasing championships.

That hasn't been Jason for quite a while.

sold his race rig about a month ago. went missing after that. missing, as in, not even his agent or friends can get ahold of him. but please take that in context, this is par for the course behavior for JLAU.

been rumored to have lurked and may even have posted under a alias here in the time since.

people who seem to know whats up, dont think things will end well.

thats the latest. till next week when the next jlaw thread pops up.

Not that i disagree with you, but i think the point attempting to be made was that journalists chase stories and this seems to be a story that many people have interest in.

There's a story to be told and judging by the way JLaw threads in here go multi-page, plenty want to hear it.

Guess it's the difference between being a reporter and a journalist and our sport being full of the former and thin on the latter......

X4...I talked to a guy named Michael @ Suzuki City, not sure if he is the owner or just an employee, and he said that JLaw is still on the team and he just wasn't quite ready with how everything was getting set-up. whatever, that means. Asked if he had talked to him, when he would be at the Nationals...not recently and wasn't sure, were his answers.

Yes there is a difference.....most of sports is about "reporting" what happens at the events and to the event participants

There is also a difference between talking to a guy that knows someone at Suzuki City and actually getting to speak with the subject in question.

Lawrence is famous for not wanting to talk to anyone so why should a person who is otherwise busy with the races chase Jason around instead of focussing on the guys that are out there racing?

Lawrence doesn't want to talk obviously or else it would be on TWMX.....simple as that.

As for the interest in Jason being gauged by multi-page threads on here........seriously put that in perspective.
Devin Davis can pull a 10 pager just by being his douchey self does that mean GuyB should camp out at his house to get the inside story on what's up with DD?

Ok,
We know that Guy is out, Swap is dangling from his new bff Paluzzi, so that leaves us with Matthes or the real Steve Cox. Come on men, step up to the plate.

Page views...okay. If I were just looking for page views, I'd try to be the TMZ of the moto world. Fortunately, I'm not that guy.

At this point my guess is "many" has been reduced to "some" people have an interest in Lawrence. IF he comes back let's talk about it but until then it's bascially Ground Hog Day.

I tuned the Jason deal out when I was told first hand in December/January that he was still dealing with some of the same challenges he's been dealing with the last few years. The definition of crazy is repeating the same thing expecting a different result. Until Jason IMO does a 180 degree turnaround people will only be talking about the what ifs instead of his results on track.

It's a shame but he isn't the first and is unfortunately won't be the last rider to squander massive talent. When and if he comes back I will be at the fence and in my seat cheering him on big time but for the foreseeable future I'm over it.

When the guy first posted this the title was "Laurence" but a mod must have changed it for him.

I know the feeling. The rage is just a minor set back in my opinion though.

Or that Brotocross dude... if I was RacerX or Transworld (or Vital) I'd commission that guy to go on a fear and loathing style goose chase road trip to try track him down. haha. Would be a good read.
