I am a huge Tebow fan and I support his right to be a Christian because in the NFL if you get I to drugs or some off field incident they talk about it.

I don't support MX's desire to suppress anything that could be negative. Yet we can talk about Christianity because it will win fans.

Love that sketch.

DF has a point imo. If media is going to show us people's lives, then tell us more than the watered down version of what that person is about. What the riders are really like as people is basically a big mystery unless you're in the know. We do know how great they are - giving to charity, taking pictures with kids, being religious etc.. What we don't know is the rest of what what makes them human.

I suggest Jlaw has gained fans because people know he makes mistakes. He's like us, albeit more extreme. He isn't boring. He also loses fans because of this, but wouldn't we all? Isn't reality better than BS? I don't want to excuse his ear biting and the like, but he's an interesting character. Part of what makes him interesting is that he isn't freaking perfect.

Does everyone really want riders to be held up as examples of wonderful human beings? If you want your kids to look up to someone, wouldn't it be nice if they looked up to someone who made, and then learned from mistakes? Someone who is believable when they say "such and such is a bad idea" because they've actually lived a life where bad stuff happens?

It would be nice to hear if a rider makes an ass out of himself once in a while. Not because I love gossip, but because I'd like the guys I root for to be portrayed as normal. Most everything we're fed is picture perfect lives, or nothing at all.

If someone wants to believe in an omnipresent being who over-sees the lives of every person on our planet and they get some strength from that, it is perfectly fine. However if someone was to say thank you to the sun-god and the man on the moon, without whom nothing is possible, that should be accepted the same way. If I was to give a podium speech where I said thank you to the great leprechaun who has my pot o gold at the end of the rainbow, I guarantee people would not be as accepting of my beliefs as those of born-again Christians.

I was raised a Christian, used to attend service 2 or 3 times a week, knew the bible inside and out, but also understand why Christianity was started and the role it has played in controlling people, waging and starting wars, and killing innocent people for centuries. The guy who said earlier that 'extreme' religions are dangerous was correct.

There are lots of things we can use to give us strength and motivation, one is no better than any other. Try telling that to a born-again who thinks that all non-believers are going to roast alive when the rapture comes.
Excellent post. How can you not like Trey? Love his passion, heart and skill when it comes to moto.
Could do without the relgiousity though, but don't begrudge him his beleifs.

Trey is awesome and one of the nicest people you could meet. Couldn't say enough good things about him and his family. This should be the focus, but since church was brought up, the stupidity was brought out with this and now we have arguments that are completely irrelevant to the OP. Just stfu and talk about motocross people. No need to be sensitive and stir everything up.

Its as simple as this.1. If you don't like Trey talking about god, turn the damn channel when hes being interviewed, or plug your ears if your at the track. 2. We live in a country that has Freedom of speech and Freedom of Expression, there for say what you want when you feel like it. What is Trey doing wrong exactly? Nothing. Trey is a great role model for everyone. If you are a true MX SX fan sit back and watch what there doing cause its a thing of beauty for anyone to haul ass on a bike like they do.

Great transworld video with TC.

I got to interview Trey at Hangtown 2010, he is a very nice guy, he didn't need to give me the time for the interview after a long day racing but he did anyway...and I appreciated that a lot. ( Thanks to mom241 as well) He is a true role model for young kids and inspiration for other christians (young and old) as well. Trey is just the same off camera as he is on it.

I don't see why people are offended by what he believes in, even if you some of you guys don't believe in the same thing he is still a great person, very humble, and a fantastic rider for the sport.

I like Trey because he is a solid dude and a contender.

I am not an Andrew Short fan because I think he is taking a ride from someone who might actually win.

Hando thinks its funny how so many people get upset that TC thanks god on the podium.

Hando thinks it's even more funny that anyone even listens to the podium speeches as they are mostly just sponsor plugs.

As soon as the race is over, I change the channel or leave the stadium.

TC could worship satin for all I care.

LOL LOL LOL
Why the hell would Trey worship fabric???? Did I miss something?

Best thing about the man? Religion is 99% of who he is. Moto? Less than 1%. Yet he is faster than most of all mankind. Imagine that.

I don't care if he is a Christian or not. If we can't talk about hookers and blow and everyone wants to complain about how the rock star girls dress I don't need that Jesus crap thrown in my face all the time.
If he earns a podium, and they stick a mic in his face, he earned the right to talk about whatever the fuck he wants.

You don't have to agree. You can even dislike him for it. That's your prerogative. But he's earned the right to say what he wants to say. If you don't like it, start training!

I agree with you he has the right to say or do whatever he wants and he is his own man.

I do like Trey. He is not only a solid guy he has personality.

As for me and training I might have a better chance of being able to fellate myself than make a main these days!
