Drugs maybe. But not soaps, that's what cable tv is for.

It's pretty pathetic when a bunch of motoheads are sitting around discussing an advertisement for a soap opera. What's next, griping that Target doesn't have a good enough sale on mismatched separates?

Whats even worse is the fact that you know Target sells mismatched separaters.

First off, what's a mismatched separate?

Secondly, why do they call these shows "soaps".

Lastly, do you guys think that James Stewart will have a YZ250 as a beater practice bike next year (trying to steer the topic to something worthwhile, moto related)?

He is probably making $1,000 each time it airs. Good for Metzger, got a wife, two kids. He still would smoke you on a motorcycle in any discipline.

because, in early tv, when these 'drama' shows began, the sponsors were detergent companies and the target audience was housewives, who bought the detergent.



Sheesh, I am old, to know that, first hand!Laughing

Actually promo/commercial work goes along with signing a contract just like any other business. If it was a stand alone ad and he wasn't appearing on the show that would be a whole other deal.

I pulled the $1,000 each time, based loosely on what Kmart paid for a national commercial 9 years ago. Back then, Kmart paid $500 to skateboard with no speaking at all. Metz could be getting a hell of a lot more, or less? I don't know that industry very well.

Metz broke his back, realized how short life was and decided to start doing other things. What exactly is the problem here or is it a jealousy problem?

You must be missing my point. If it is just a print/ T.V. advertising gig he would be getting paid every time it runs. If Metzger is actually under contract and on the show he wouldn't be getting paid for advertising, it would be part of his per episode salary.

Didn't Metz race for NCY back in early 90's with Clowers, Don Upton, Tyson Vohland...maybe Mike Chamberlain....? Metz has been puttin' his neck on the line forever seemingly.

He's been an upper level rider for so long....let Metz make a buck the easy way. Good post Camp.
