And since my parents have passed away, the basement remark, will not work. So if you come to the east , for sx ot mx, i guarantee the remark about my mother you made, you wont say it to my face. Thats not a keyboard tough talking, so lemme know what races your going to attend.

So you know Reed personally? Are you going to go to his rig at the races and tell him how much of a pussy he was at MEC?

He has to be a sponsors nightmare. Emotional and never terribly professional about talking some serious shit about previous bike and other sponsors.

This is Reed`s job. He has contracts. He has to be there. People may not like what he said because to everyone here MX is a hobby, passtime.

I watched the press conference and he said he wanted to be here and hoped to be healthy enough to play.

GO SPEEDY!

Reed has always been Reed…
Everyone thinks he speaks his mind, i personally think he just likes to hear the sound of his own voice, his interviews seem like he rambles on and on…

Why do members on vital always say "Does reed really care what we (vital) think" ? We are a Motoboard, were allowed to have an opinion. I don't get why members always say that….

I think he could have gotten the point across a little more diplomatically. Reed has said he is not a fan of the MEC, and he is not even bothering to train for it. He is going to hit it hard in November.

would have been way more interesting if he talked about how he was looking forward to the night and to get the million he'd need 3 strong starts and solid laps and how it's a unique race because of the Joker lane and it'll be a good shakedown for the upcoming season to see where he and his team is at

yah that'd be waay better

My bad for posting on a public forum, you better tell the other title contenders to stay home, ya know to avoid injury
Except he's still injured and probably has a higher chance of re-agrivating that injury with a minor mistake ....Better tell RV to sack up and race SX instead of letting his injury fully heal to race the GPs then right?

What he meant to say was>

I am still banged up from MXON and I don't think I am going to do well, not even sure if I can race at this point, so I am letting you know that in advance that I am gonna do shitty. But since I have contracts to race here, I am going to do my best.

How he stated it was a total mistake. Anyone ever say something they regret?????

However, the comment about jet lag and rather be at home was the real stuper......Looks very irresponsible to take a vacation and drag it out long enough to come to race lagged out. He deserves a vacation more then almost anyone on the planet, but hey, don't run your underwear up the flagpole.

REGARDLESS OF Twitter quotes etc 2 huge races by your personal sponsor "des Nations &MEC" can you look yourself honestly in the mirror and say I gave 100% commitment to these two races which my sponsor (& country) expected me to give?
Look Reed is a legend but sometimes it's time to admit you ain't always out smarting the industry and that when you spend big $ on big races maybe you should spend big time on working on big results. In short you don't make wine on beer output.
Something I learnt in my time in the military yes only in the reserves but PISS POOR PLANNING PROMOTES PISS POOR PERFORMANCE.

All you guys that are bitching are probably the same ones that bitched about RV saying he was racing the nationals, too. Reed was honest, what more could you ask for? Now continue bitching just for the sake of bitching. And to the guy that called him a douchebag, you obviously know where reed will be every weekend for about 4 months, so why don't you wander on over to his pits so you can tell him to his face?

There's honest and then there's honest with integrity/professionalism. Even if I parted ways with my current company over a disagreement, I would still keep my comments above the belt, positive, and professional. Why? Because even if they did me wrong, it still makes me look bad by slinging a bunch of crap around about them.

Reed can be honest as say he doesn't feel 100% but he's out there to represent the people who have believed in him and backed his efforts. Instead he's being whiny about it. What happened to the Chad who first created TwoTwo? It's like he was a whiner before that point and now he's turnig into a whiner now.

All just my personal opinion of course.

Going to work when we don't feel like it, would rather be riding, have the sniffles or hungover from a rough weekend is one thing...putting your life on the line at an even like this when you are (from what Reed has tweeted) injured and should be taking time to heal to 100% instead of punishing the injury more by being on the bike is another. Grow up!

Yeah, Chad has always come off as a bit of a whiner. Can't blame him, in this instance. Unfortunately, he's being paid by Monster to be there, soooo....

I agree - doing his job in the shape he's in is nothing like doing our jobs sick.

Not a good season but so talented that it is not wise to ever count Reedy out of some good battles & wins/podiums contention.

This is Vital. Doesn't matter who it is...we feel like it's our God given right to bash anybody and everybody. Just so happens, Saturday is Chad Reed day.

Haha you're too funny, defender of the chad and all must think he's great and never has any shitty remarks.

Get your tightly whites outta a bunch you fool. Read grieby54 first post. That pretty much nailed it on the head, I just don't like to type that long shit out as most the ppl on here (apparently you too) read too much into every word that is typed and somehow twist it to be used against you in the court of vital law! Laughing

Anyways you're more of an online "dork" than I am judging by post count so yea.
