He pulled off after going down and in dead last on a sprint race because he was leading the Lites West Sx Champoinship....no reason to risk it. Im stoked he will be there and whatever peice ESPN is working on for "Bad Boy of MX" will likely explode his exposuer fame and popularity with the fans.

OK, so all the Jlaw bs has worn off for me and I want to see the kid ride. I don't even want to look at the rider list but I'd have to say he should be the fastest. It's hard to fire a kid that can get so much publicity. If he doesn't melt down and do some stupid shit at the event, we will see him back soon.

Know it all....


Unlike those kooks at the AMA, the folks at X encourage drunken fights between fans and athletes. J Law should be their poster boy.....

J Law is heading to Hollywood and Madison Avenue......and then along to the bank.

The bank doesn't care that the lighting was bad.


Biggest lead in story at Summer X.....you won't need a Tivo, it'll be prime time.

If Jlaw wins........ all the other "shenanigans" will soon be forgotten.

To the X Games crowd, what JLaw did was no big deal.

Last years X games was packed at both Staples Center and Home Depot Center.

Do not confuse the X games with the Moto X thing in San Diego.

Also, do not forget the X games is a made for TV event.

it's going to be interesting , What YOT's sponsors do after this year if they didn't let J-Law go like they already told everyone they did.

Where's quanteem at ? As soon as he gets done T baggin J-Law he will tell us the real deal.

After his antics early this summer, I heard through the grapevine, Jason Lawrence has not been cut from YOT and will be at the X*Games aboard a Yamaha of Troy machine.

I guess we'll see if the outpatient rehab courses have helped this youngster out after a short period of time.
Trashing the AMA in interviews would be the most stupid thing he could ever do. They have him by the balls right now.

I hope he has learned his lesson and gets his license back for SX. It will be interesting to see if he can back up his title.

I was just putting the champagne on ice for when he wins X, gets more pub than he ever asked for, and sticks it to Racer X and the "golden boy" nuthuggers at the AMA.

So what - he was there to either win or quit? Whatever. If RC crashed and was dead last do you think he would have quit? Unless he was hurt or had bike problems, he should have finished the race for his fans and sponsors.

Kind of like what he did in step up? and this doesn't have shit to do with RC so stop trying to compare the situation. RC isn't perfect either so hey if I give you some money will you run to the store and buy a can of STFU?

He was injured. He smashed his head on his bars and had blood dripping down his face. Probably had a concussion. You're the one comparing the situations not me. Yeah, it's great that Lawrence quit when he was out of the race. I'd also like to see Pastrana pull out of the rally race if he ends up in last place. Maybe Tiger should quit his next tournament halfway through when he realizes he isn't going to win. Why don't you STFU already. I will take your money, though. Thanks for offering. Smile

That's it? Things happen? There was never a press release saying he was fired, it's all you, and that "perceived" word. Told you to wait and see before you go off at the mouth. You didn't listen.

You call people out for a lot less than this. Can we now stalk you because you were wrong. Can we call you a liar in every thread you post in?

So again Dave, just cause something is perceived, doesn't mean it's real. You were a victim of your own bs on this one.

RC wasn't hurt that bad and he didn't have a championship to protect and he quit.

I have called them all out on the topic. They all couldn't type fast enough to say he'd been fired. Any of them ever say sorry, we got bad information? Not that I'm aware of.

Maybe they went with the perception too. lol

See, you can't believe everything you read on the net.

Jason had a few meetings, came to some understandings and things changed.
Bottom line

Why is it that you think you can never be wrong. You post on here like you are some insider with all the facts when you're not.
