Who the hell is that annoying guy in the booth?

I reckon Jim and Kevin are thinking the same as me and I swear Jim looks like he is really biting his lip, he has such a condescending manner.

Is he some sort of big time American presenter? Feld guy? What?

It doesn't matter, he keeps asking K-dub questions, and doesn't talk over him like the other guy does.

I like his lack of comfort, he leaves the stage to K-dub and Holley.

Yeah he keeps quiet which is nice and asks good questions but damn, Jim doesn't seem to like him one bit..

Yup. Perhaps he is there to keep things to a tight schedule or something I dont know, he seems to be the one busting in and saying the formal stuff while Kevin and Jim chat....

This sport always hires brothers sons cousins and usually not the best for the job.

Honestly I'm so pumped Kevin Barnett's not in there that I haven't even noticed how bad Erv's son is.

There was lots of questions they could have asked PK!!!!!!!!

Functionally he's doing a good job, but the Braun kid might be better suited to announcing figure ssskating than motor-sports.

Ha Jim's face when he looks at the Guy talking is priceless, almost like what is coming out next or spit it out, get to the point.

I guess it's good to be in the stands rather than watching handies on the stream?

I didn't like Kevin Barnett when he first announced at the MEC a few years ago, but he's actually grown on me. He doesn't sound like an idiot when he talks like several announcers supercross has had over the years. Yeah, he talks over Jim sometimes, but he usually actually has something decent to say when he does.

I tuned in 3 different times to watch practice and waited about 5 minutes each time to see actual riding then gave up. I can't believe the lack of riding they showed! Too much BSing and barely any riding!! WTF!
