I'm not saying there's nothing to pick apart when it comes to JS. Just that doing so has gotten repetitive.

Another thing is (and this isn't pointed toward you UAW) people seem to revel in the fact he is failing. Not too many here are wishing the best for the guy.

Better in practice than the main. Get that out of his system maybe? When one pushes for the very limits, it can bite you for sure. perhaps now he knows what not to do for the night?

When confidence becomes cockiness, you lose a lot of fans.

I understand what you are saying. I think more is aimed at irritating his fans than at James though.

In my opinion, practice and heat races are a giant pissing contest. Reed is one who seems to build his speed during the day and when he is on peaks for the main. Stewie on the other hand rarely loses practice or a heat race.

I wish the best for all of them.

I've never been one to play favorites.

I enjoy seeing good racing no matter who ends up on top of the box.

Everyone in the field deserves respect just for working hard enough to make it to the top level of our sport.

Thanks Zippy for the link, there was no saving that one and I think he got off easy by landing on the tuff block but you know it still had to hurt.

Thanks for posting that video. Nice. Track looks great. Pretty hard fall for Bubba. Man his bike just doesn't look good to me this year.

Kongols? He's about the only one left. Rarely see the others anymore.

Anyway, just wanted to pop in to give some ying to the yang around here.

Last year Stewart lands on a guy who misses a triple, and there are 45,687 threads baggin on the guy, but when Albertson lands on Nick Wey last week in Phoenix, not one person callin him out.
Albertson's was an accident, but so was Stewarts, but we all see the difference.........

Geezer, I agree with all but number 2. You see, being from MN means it's a rare occurrence to have a world class rider from your state. It's nearly impossible for me not to root for RD. It was the same way with Benolkin, Schmidt, Keeny, and a few guys who could at least qualify for a national. Normally I don't play favorites either, but if RD wins it is a bit more satisfying!

Has Ryan Hughes seen this crash yet Wink this is exactly what he's talking about. That was a pretty nasty high side, reminded me of some of RC's crashes in the whoops
