Turning nationals into outdoor supercross, removing the loam and smoothing out unadilla. Displacement rules to make 2 strokes a handicap, NOT paying the PROS ENOUGH !!!!!!!!

One Industries signing Dungey then signing Jlaw. What the fuck were they thinking? That was a bonehead move of biblical proportion.
A few good people quit after this "new management" bonehead move. The end of a great story....

Well I have to say that this thread has produced many bonehead moves, especially killing off the 125 class. But I often think back to what One Industries was really thinking, I mean seriously, like Dungey would be hugging it out with Jlaw or something? I mean, they had Dungey!! As their main guy!

1. Kawasaki not rehiring Carmichael before 2002. Boy does that move look astronomically dumb.

2. Kawasaki not rehiring Stewart before 2009. Not as bad as the RC scenario, but I really do believe Stewart would have SX and MX titles in 2009, 2010, and maybe 2011 if he was on Kawi and riding both indoors and outdoors. He didn't get to finish outdoors when he was in his absolute big bike prime.

3. Honda not rehiring Carmichael before 2005. WTF is wrong with bike brands doubting Carmichael? If the dude wants $3M, you give him $3M. Think of how many RMZ450's were at your local track after RC starting winning on that thing.

Carmichael pulling out of the National series in 2007.

He won every race he entered up to Unadilla and had built a massive point lead.

But he pulled out to follow his "plan" and go run late models at a non-descript track in Florida for a soon to be defunct NASCAR team.

He could have added yet another National title if he had ran one more race, perhaps two. He gave away a title to do absolutely nothing.

Great points, most of the above. Yamaha moving Dowd 'back' to a 125 after getting a good 2nd to Emig on a 250cc outdoors. Idiots.

I disagree with a couple statements...

450s - This is like sleeping with your wife's hot sister, not only is she extremely sexy with a nice body, she can ride you like you have never rode before and the best part is she does all the work!!!! You just lie be lazy and take it like a champ!

30 second chicks - It baffles me that guys complain about this.. I mean seriously in todays world with the gay movement(the media) forcing gay acceptance into every portion of our daily lives, i would much rather have my son looking at half naked or fully naked girls holding a 30 second board for what is about to be some of the best and intense outdoor racing were gonna see(hopefully)!.. This is like people writing letters to Don Maeda complaining about the half naked girl posing by a bike.. NEWS FLASH if you dont like it dont look at it!!

Chicks in the Nationals - How is this a negative thing in anyway shape or form. If anything it strengthens the fan base by adding diversity and promoting more people to ride and more importantly more women to ride.. If i found a girl that loved to ride as much as i did or somewhat close to as much that means family time at the track every weekend. Which is awesome in so many ways if you have ever heard the saying "quality time" from your women then you would be pumped because ideally that means goto the track ride all day grill out some good food and go home and knock the socks off!!
Read your post back. How can you say promoting diversity in motocross is a good thing in one paragraph, but be so discriminating against one group of people in another?

"hyp·o·crite [hip-uh-krit]

2. A person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, especially one whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements."


Do you really think your son's sexuality will be influenced by how much tits and ass he sees in his youth? Do you think if they had naked men holding the 30 second board that all of a sudden riders would be running off into the sunset holding hands and waving dildos about? That's not how homosexuality works. If your son likes tits, congratulations, he won't have to deal with the bullshit people like you spout. If he doesn't, I feel sorry that he lives in a home where he'll be treated as an un-equal.

"Supercross Wars"

The AMA completely underestimating the power and resolve of Clear Channel Entertainment to maintain control of Supercross, and lock up every major stadium venue nationwide with exclusive "dirt event" contracts, leaving the ill-fated, under-funded and inexperienced Jam Sports (along with the AMA) with nothing and the ability to only book venues like college stadiums and Wal-Mart parking lots, leaving the AMA with little choice but to throw in the towel on their agreement with Jam Sports, eat crow, and extend the contract with CCE.

Good one Dave, I forgot all about that mess.

Some of you lack comprehension skills, based on a few of these posts.
