I love reading all the haters. Im personally over stewart and have been since bubbas world, and SX only contracts. But the storm of shit talking after he has a press release is sweet.

He had a crap year and got 5. 10 was very doable last year. Not to mention he usually does get 10 a season and that was against RC and Chad in their prime. To just come right out and say he CAN'T do it is not accurate.

This is going to be interesting...all of a sudden the Naked Truth ad might make sense...as to wtf were they thinking? "We're gonna have JS7 and JGR next-yr. Who cares what KMC-USA does?"

The guy is well over halfway to 73. If you look at the number of wins vs. starts it's still pretty staggering. And he has done it against the best riders in history. He's only 26 years old. Look at Windham. Definitely doable.

you act like villapoto didn't hand a few of those races over as well. also any year the james stewart lines up all 16 races is not a crap year. is mc s record impossible of course not. but you need to realize that these next 3 years will be tougher than anything he has had to deal with in the this was proven last year when he went 4 5 races straight without a win.also before poto tc and rd james supposedly never lost if he stayed up...remember those days?. tray canard would a stolen a few more if he had not crashed out last year... you could just see his progression. I understand your frustration because people are saying he's crazy to think he cpuld win 10 a year for 3 I'd say anything's possible but odds sure are against him

How old is RV, RD, TC, JB, ET, DW, BB, KR...and we ain't talking qualifying here, we are taking winning mains...and a lot of them. As a frame of reference, Carmichael retired only 1 year older than Stewart is now. Stewart will certainly win some races, and he is now on a great team for sure. But that many? Smart money says no. Personally, I'm kinda bummed on the wrong turns he took along the way, but in every life some rain must fall I guess.

Ryan Villopoto is only 23 . Stewart is 25. Ryan is less than 3 years younger than James.

Yes, I know but remember that 3 years in moto is 3 years of punishment, not 3 years of couch sitting. Those years take a toll. Also, Stewart will be 26 in less than 2 months-Dec. 21. I'm actually quite excited to see the battles of next year. Man I hope no one gets injured testing and practicing in the next 2 months.

Mcgrath won his last championship when he was 29. He was still winning in to 30-th.

you make a good point...

but who knows what makes a guy like him tick...i would be focused on making my career last as long as possible, but then again he has never had to go to a boring job everyday to know the difference...

odds are against him, time isn't on his side anymore, but it is still hard to bet against him winning the most races...

why can't he manage the yardsales a little better? lol
that's the key, not crashing... and unfortunately for him that hasn't been something he's been able to do except for a couple of years (in the big bikes).

you know some of my talk is from just not wanting him to dominate. i actually enjoyed Jeremy's domination. i got fed up with Ricky's domination, although it was something to behold. but i just don't want to see anymore! James could do it... i don't think anyone would be surprised if he won both championships and most all the races in 2012. the odds with what we saw Villo do at MEC are slim, especially with RD5, TC and Reed out there I think they are VERY slim. (at least I'm hoping).

Since turning pro James has always been the biggest name under the tent. Now he's racing for a team who's owner makes Stewart look as anonymous as a Craigslist ad. From being surrounded by "yes men", to having to say "yes, sir", makes for an interesting transition. For both Sr and Jr.

Stewart will do fine with JGR. It's a solid team, they will do what ever it takes to get the bike to his liking and most importantly, they will handle the day to day managing of the team. All James needs to worry about is racing.

K-Dub won 4 races in 2010! How old is he? Stewart can do it. Say what you want about him needing to focus on SX Championship, but I actually think the 73 wins and the SX Championship kind of go hand in hand. If he is focussing on wins, that's gonna get him a Championship........
