I get what you are trying to say, I just dont buy it. The last few years of James riding blue has clouded our memories. He still has it, and he and Villo are going to elevate themselves above the rest of the competition this supercross season, or at least I hope this will happen. Someone once said to me, "hope is doubt", I hope this isnt the case.

Like Hannah and Bradshaw before him, he may not have won as many championships due to his lack of consistency, but I'll tell you why.

For them, it is not good enough to win or podium, they have to Destroy the competition. Bradshaw had a huge amount of fans, me being one of them, and he never won a big bike championship. (that is why I wish 1st paid 25 pt.s and 2nd 20, to the victor goes the spoils).

The first SX I ever saw was 1989 in Tampa on a vacation planned around the SX, Bradshaw was on a 125....he finished 2nd behind MXKid, and he was pissed!

I think when JS7 is on the podium in 3rd getting his picture taken, he is, ummm, throwing up in his mouth.

Hey, I'm Canadian, so here is a hockey analogy. A young goal scorer is lighting it up with 40 goals a year. After a steady decline of motor skills due to age and injury, five years later he is good for a little of 20. He's frustrated and not having any fun. Sure he has a brilliant and lucky night and scores a hat trick once in a while, but those nights are further and further apart.

JS7 is my favourite racer since Hannah, they have had similar results in the record books. Prior to Hannah's waterskiing accident, he had everyone's number...then Howerton stepped up, the mystic was gone some. So it is with JS7, he is just another fast guy now......not a good enough stature for his liking.

I see JS7 in a cage of some sort next year, maybe off-road truck to get started.

I want to thank him for making every race he was in interesting, making a 2000 mile round trip drive to TO worth it by him and RC putting on a show with him taking it late, and every exciting moment.

Hope I'm 100% wrong, go JS7!
