Got it Jay but put yourself in his spot. He does an interview with me and gets criticized for it but if he does one like Dungey does most of the time, he'll get criticized for that like RD does. Then he's got idiots spewing rumors about his chick, his training (with providing absolutely zero proof) and eventually what he'll do is just turn into this guy that doesn't want to talk for fear of people slamming him. Then we can just call him James Stewart because that's what I believe happened to James, he just doesn't want to deal with anything anymore. He's tired.

People can spend their money anyway they wan to but they aren't "owed" an explanation or for a rider to act the way they would which happens all too often around here. If you don't like a rider then don't support them with your (virtual) cheers. The sense of entitlement by "fans" simply amazes me sometimes.

AND once again, for the 983rd time, let me once again reiterate that the industry cares way, way too much about what people say on here.
Exactly !

What everyone needs to realise is the post of a fool or 2 does not represent the thoughts and beliefs of 1000's of fans. Crazy posts get taken way out of context every day.... It just proves society hasn't moved on since the middle ages when witch hunts were common place.

As a rider, you have two choices.

You can either embrace this place (ala DV), or totally completely ignore it. Thats it. Any half thing here or there, will just wear you down.

But as a pro rider, here is something EVERYONE needs to know straight up and its not a choice... you better hike up your big girl panties, cowboy the fuck up, and get some thick skin to go with that 6 figure salary to do what you love to do. Thats the price and we have far far far to many riders that are too big of a ... puss... for their own good much less the sports.
DV is a good example, and Jeff Alessi for that matter.. from what I've seen (correct me if I'm wrong) these guys get praise from a large majority of the posters when they do decide to come on this site and interact with the fans, clear things up, and just be around... I sure didn't consider either guy before, but have become a fan of them both just from this site alone... Maybe just some sort of respect from man to man, stepping up and putting yourself out there and being involved... I understand that may not be an option for some of them but, you know what, if they really cared about the fans, or were that worried with what was posted on here, then yeah they'd put them big boy pants on and embrace this site too as it is a part of the sport like it or not... Don't know if the vid is relevant, I just think its funny as hell

I like Villopotos style in interviews. Dungey is a bit stiff on interviews, but that's ok too, that is his personality or that is how he wants people to see him. People can dog on him but he has a very professional attitude and it shows in his interviews, he is all business.

Villopoto should say what he wants. Now if I were him I would not disrespect his fans by calling them names but I though it was cool when he called out BobbyM and to do that to an individual is ok once in a while when they are out of control. But that is his personality. I would hate it if everyone interviewed like Dungey or Villopoto. I would rather see their personality, the good, the bad, the ugly. Though most try to hide the ugly, that is fine too.

What really counts is can they ride and both RD and RV can, I don't care what they sound like in an interview, I am just glad they are both motivated enough and get paid enough to entertain us with some great racing.

Some people will hate poto but they are probably the minority, while others may favor other riders, and some are fickle. It is a mixed bag just like the riders are a mixed bag.

i agree

if he knocks up his wife and she leaves him after a few years he'll regret not taking the yearly payout.

RV doesn't seem like a dummy-- as we all know many of his peers are boneheads but marrying that chick was the WORST thing he could of did.

These girls are gold diggers to the max, however..ill be honest..if I had that kind of loot and worked that hard i'd want to slay top shelf pussy too.

Wow. Do you actually believe the garbage you are spewing?? So tell me, how long have you known RV and his wife? How much time per week do you spend hanging out with them?

What? You DON'T know them??? Well then please tell me how the fuck do you know that she and these "other girls" are gold diggers. Please enlighten us all.

I don't believe it man, I KNOW it. The truth hurts man

Do you know how young RV is??? Do you know how much people change in the course of 5-10 years, even after they're considered adults??

Do you know that most early marriages end in divorce??

Sorry..even if he wasnt making millions and winning SX races I'd say the same thing to him that I tell everyone else I know that gets married under the age of 30.

BAD IDEA!!!!!
MXPunk,

Dude you are so right! I used to work for Kawi as the head technical advisor for cylinderical pressure of rotating mass. Basically, I was in charge of anything with a wheel at Kawi for close to ten years. Dude, I was at a strip club with RV during testing a few years ago when he met his chick, now wife, and I can tell you, she didn't want anything to do with him. During a lap dance with me, I told her about his motocross stardom and his riches and next thing you know, BOOM, she is on him like white on rice. These chicks are all the same, gold diggers as you say.

You are a fucking moron if you believe any of that along with any of what you wrote. You have not a clue about him or his wife and probably never will. Do you think she was some trophy holder at the races, a 30 second or umbrella girl, do you know anything or just guessing? Let me guess, you used to beat RV on 60's, but you had to go work 9-5 at 9 years old while he got everything handed to him and drove around in a semi with 15 bikes. Because you had to work at an early age, you had to race your practice bike which was clapped out and thats why you never made it, so now, his chick is a gold diggin roach and everyone should jump on your "hater bandwagon." Do I have the story right? Tell again what you KNOW, fucking idiot!

MxPunk prolly not cool to talk about his wife. If you have any respect for him you wouldn't say shit like that. If RV know she is the best one for him then she is. Are their chicks out there that are flakey? Absolutely! Are there girls out there that get passed around? For Sure! It's honestly the same thing in MX than any other work place or casual life for that matter. Personally there are alot of guys out there that don't do the smash smash pass game with girls. Look at Family Twotwo that's a relationship to be proud of! They are both blessed!

Just because he isn't doing what you would do don't say disrespectful things about him or any other rider for that matter. Who cares? There is more great moto and silly season talk then to turn a good thread in garbage!

This is about how interviews are done and riders marketability seriously. The more you embrace the media better off you are. Chad Reed blew up bigger this year than any rider in a while. Everyone has a huge respect out there for him. I hoestly think he is the most liked rider out there. He has done way more positive or fun social media this year than anyone ever. Seriously him and James are fucking tweeting back and forth! Seriously!!? Stanton wouldn't have been tweeting with JMB that's for sure. Riders need to see what he did and duplicate that! The more comfortable these guys get being themselves in front of media the better off they are. Everything is very fluid when he talks even sponsors. I would to hear more interviews like the ones with matthes on TV!

Stanton comes from the Tom Selleck era where chest hair, Pontiac Firebirds, and testosterone were cool. Things have changed. He wouldn't be tweeting now or then. Chad Reed wears eyeliner while practice riding.

You know Reed used to have issues with the fans on motoboards and he figured out a way to deflect it, Twitter is his weapon and it's worked for him, very well I might add. Most of the big names go through this period at least once. People, myself included, tend to root for the underdog. Well, RV is no longer the underdog, so it's his turn on the hot seat..... Smile

mxpunk-so now you are venturing into the social conscious of society and are going to dispense relationship advice for all to read? Listen, thanks for the many tips, especially the nugget informing us that most marriages end in divorce. Good one. You need to take a bit of GuyB's advice and read your post before hitting submit. These are total douchebag posts and you are officially out of your league here. This follows your well informed post about university professors. Btw, I happen to work and teach at a university and have been there for 26 years-can't say I've experienced much of what you seem to know.

So, to review, stick to simple moto and try not to venture into comments about people's wives and/or relationships, unless you happen to be banging your best buddies chick, b/c that kind of shit is what brings otherwise intelligent conversation down to the lowest common denominator on this board.

People posted the same sort of shit about RC when he got married and we all know how well those predictions have gone. Of course you are new to this board and sport, so I will forgive you for knowing fark all.

No, more like 3 or 4 hundred but nowhere near 1000.

WWBHD? What would Bob Hannah do?

My perception of BH in the past was a guy who said what he thought. He had fans and haters, but always drew a crowd.

I see RV with Hannah's determination on the track, but maybve he should adopt some of his interview skills. Say what he believes and make no appology for it. He can't worry about the haters on here, just do his job, win races and speak his mind.
