If he was American he wouldn't be considered cocky, he would be cool and edgy like J-Law. Lots of grown men piling on a 17yr old because he's confident and wants to take on the world's best riders at the MXdN. Starting a thread asking, "is he an asshole?" No but maybe you are thread starter. All I take from all this attention he's getting is he's got fans over here nervous. I feel good about the US taking the win but I sure wouldn't bet against JH taking both his motos
I agree. Why's it so bad that he said he'd like to line up against the best in the world? Bid deal. I think it's cool that he's willing to lay it on the line and at times tell it like it is. A little Bob Hannah-ish.

I think someone else brought it up but how is Herlings attitude any different than everyone's favorite badass Bob Hannah? I don't recall Hannah being like, "Golly gee, I hope I can win today. All my fellow racers are so fast, I just hope for the best." No Hannah said something along the lines of, "I'm the best and if someone gets in my way I'm gonna break their leg!" Then he went out and t-boned someone haha! The MXdN fanboys on either side of the pond are definitely the worst and this year the Herlings situation is making it downright painful with all the shit posts

John Dowd made a impromptu visit and a fast getaway from The Netherlands 17 years ago. Make of this what you will.

He has. Searle's won nearly 40% of the moto wins between them.

And this includes Searle's 3 mechanical DNFs to Herlings' 1. Plus Herlings had 2 home GPs to Searle's 1.

So anyone who says that Herlings ''doesn't have much trouble beating Searle'' is stupid and thinks we are too.

Herlings isn't a good mud rider. He has clearly stated he hate's the mud. This is where Searle shines.

It is irrelevant to consideration of the validity of your comment.

when was the last time you stopped yourself from swearing at a lapped rider? thats genuine emotion, and she stuck a camera in his face.

plus he's only 17 (right?) at 17 I was one year from being a father, lighting fires at unadilla like a jackass and enjoying the fact i didnt have to go to school

Jeff Herlings invented sand by crushing rocks in his bare hands.

Jeff Herlings has been to Mars....he won.

Jesus is the son of Herlings.

Any other little known facts out there?

My point exactly, that is where your maturity level kicks in, everyone gets mad but to let it get the best of you..... Shows just how mature the 17 year old is. I'm not bashing him but from what I've seen outta this kid, all the take outs and shit talking makes me wonder.... I would love to see him and freezy on the se track (granted Vince would have to take herlings out as he was being lapped hahaha)



On another note being a professional means you gotta act like one, don't matter how old you are..




Herlings should take some pointers from AC92

How did you come up with that 40% number???

Herlings has 16 moto wins
Searle has 9 moto wins

So Herlings has almost double as much moto wins.

I used an ingenious electronic device - commonly referred to in English as a calculator.

As you don't seem to have cottoned on to them yet, I'll do the math for you - although it's pretty basic stuff.

Total motos - 25
40% of 25 = 10.
So 9 = nearly 40% (and clearly much closer than almost half)

Allright. I didn't need a calculator to see that 40% was incorrect.

9/28 motos = 32,1% for tommy
16/28 = 57.1% for herlings

Do you suffer from dyslexia?

I said ''nearly 40%''

In presenting a completely different equation in a desperate and transparent attempt to divert from your partisan induced error you are, in my view, disingenuous.

Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah...

Here are the actual facts...

This Kid is Fast...maybe the "Fastest" on a tiddler...?
He's on film acting like a lil' Bitch...so what...he'd just come off the track and he was PISSED!
He's THE fast guy in the Netherlands...it would seem that he's in need of faster Team-Mates to pursuit the Title & that sucks!
He's thrown an awful lot of attitude around, let's see what it get's him.

We'll all know in a few weeks.

Sounds to me that you all shared Herlings is going to smoke your favorite rider(s) at the Des Nations.

Kid is pure class in the sand, deal with it and move on.
