There has been some crazy euro talk on these boards lately. Its really kinda funny how they actually think their guys are the best in the world. They are only good because that is all you see. Our guys don't go there because there is no money and no need to beat people all day long. Sure your guys are good but do you honestly believe they would stand a chance over here, HELL NO. Only a select few even need to think about coming over and running here in the U.S. with the real mx championships. The guys from here go there because they can't run well enough here so they think they will be in the top 10. When here they were 15 or worst at every race. I know that crazy grill is good but if hes that damn good, don't you think he would have gotten Crest as a sponsor and hopped a plane here so they could fix his teeth and ride for them. The pourcells need to come over and coppins and a few others but damn, im sick of all this mxdn crap. All it is complaining back and forth because everyone knows the U.S. has teh team that can't be stopped. Its like France bitching about Lance Armstrong with HGH cause he whipped their asses each year. Thats whats happening with the MXDN
What's up Reid, had a few Light beers tonight?

I don't think any Euro would dare say that Euro riders would be faster than JS and RV at the moment. But the rest of the field is even.
Anyway I'd bet you that in the few years the nationals will disapear and be merged in some way to the GPs and that would bring the end to the discussion. SX series is where the money is and they are going to extend it regardless of the impact on the nationals.
French couldn't care less about Lance Armstrong being a Texan could have been from Mars would be the same for me. He used PED like the rest of the peloton but still won the race so good for him. Sounds like you've read a bit too much propaganda about how France hate the US.... you've stopped eating French fries to get back at us?

What about Landis
I believe that the rest of the World, and especially the Europeans, really dislikes 1 Texan man, I don't think they really care about the rest.
Yep, the AMA riders rule for sure, on home soil.
In all honesty, take out Stewart and probably Villopoto and the playing field is pretty level. Euro's are good in europe and American guys are good in America.
As for the South Africans' Australians and Kiwis, they can ride anywhere. But PLEASE don't go ranking guys like Cooper, Byrne, and Jeff Alessi BETTER than some of our top ten guys, it's just isn't so.

They are a proud people like any nation. They absolutely LOVE Armstrong and tour.
And they think Americans are boorish, arogant , fat pricks. I have to pretty much agree w/ them.
1 ) Haven't got the 1st f**ing clue about the world of cycling.
2)Or are taking the piss because you know EXACTLY how the world of cycling works , or
3) You are in actual fact Lance Armstrong.
If America is the greatest place on earth, as most of you would like us to believe ,why is it that most Americans can't wait to tell you they are Irish, German, Croatian, etc, etc, .
Then when you ask "Oh and when did you move to the States" you find out they were born here , have never left here are US citizens and the only reason they think they are any of the above is because thier grandmother once met a guy who knew someone who'd bought a bag of potatoes from a guy who'd been there once.
Very weak.
Oh and Mr MXREID429 the 1st off road motorcycle race was held in England and you, sir, are speaking ENGLISH so show some respect and stop talking such bollocks. Because without us you would have neither the sport of motocross nor the language with which to discuss it.
