I had no idea RJ was behind the scenes there. Very interesting story for sure

How disorganized do you have to be as an organization(s) to end up in a lawsuit to understand who owns what?

Interesting series, thanks for posting.

I'm a big RJ fan, always have been, but I really wish Supercross.com was the official site for SX and motocross.com for mx. This would make it so much easier to follow our sport instead of the stupid alisports crap we have to filter thru now.

It looks like it....(Shut down the forums) Although they could just be in the middle of a move.
It appears they have redone everything about their site, the obvious being the design but as well as what the site is running on.
I don't recall what it use to run on but now they use Wordpress.

I think their whole redesign was an awful move though.....What a horrible experience.
I would expect much better from them.
Although, I think what they did for the team/rider pages is pretty cool, I'd like to see a little more into the design of them but its a good idea.

For now they are, but Supercross.com is making a lot of site improvements and will be introducing a lot of new features.

Always looking for your feedback and ideas!

I really enjoyed the forums at SX.com. We had a lot of great members there that I will miss. Hopefully the forums will be up and running again soon.

Thanks, Wandell...and a lot more of our membership that have contacted us. Yes, we are going through a huge site revision and design, and radical changes take time. The forums will be back, with a new format that will be loads easier for members & admins to use. Please be patient, as we are having to be...

Just showing up one day to no msg boards after 14 years was a bummer. This was worse then when they tried to bring TFS on board.

Were you able to get it to work dirtydane? I'm outside the U.S. at the moment and can't get either episode to play. Can we download it somehow and avoid the player?
