Anybody else feel like Bowers came off as a bit douchy in his interview? Maybe it's just me but I can not stand the meathead Neanderthal mentality. He is clearly his fathers son. It is 2015 man. You can not get away with beating the crap out of someone because you do not like what they said about you. You think he would have learned that by now with all he has dealt with because of his fighting/bullying mindset that him and his pops seem so proud of.
You better stop talking shit about Bowers or I'm gonna come over and kick your .... Haha J/K Silly Laughing Tongue

I too dislike the shit out of the guy. His career is quickly becoming similar to Alessi

Tim used to be a body guard for guns n roses. He's a bit jaded and is stuck in the 80's.

As far as I'm concerned, Tim is WAY worse than Tony Alessi. Tony might be a primadonna nut job, but Tim is a thug and a total piece of trash. There's no surprise that Tyler is the way he is.
Did Tim or Tyler do your wife or what? Damn, we get it, you don't like them; And, your opinion is always the right one. Your comments remind me of a little yappy chihuahua.

Good one Ryan.

Forums get little respect because of threads like this IMHO. It is great to have a favorite rider or even a rider who you root to have a poor finish from time to time but this thread has gotten way too personal.

Dumbgeon please.

Apparently the mods do not agree with you or this thread would be long gone. Sorry you and I do not see eye to eye on this one.

Why do so many people feel the need to call out a guy cause he's a bit different?

Guys, get with the real world...it would be an awfully boring place to be if everyone said the right things and acted the same way, so many of these young racers are basclically being taught how to be pretentious at a very young age, your a fool if you think not every racer is thinking the same way as Tyler Bowers!!! If you dont have the killer instinct in this sport, you wont go far! Imo Tyler could use a better approach, but again who are we to judge?

Im not a Tyler Bowers fan, but I can't say that i don't enjoy watching him race. I dont like him for outside reasons, his dad being a major part of it!!! But I respect the guy for not being the sponsorship puppy who sits when told to sit.

Hm? Your kinda slow aren't you? Where on any post have I ever implied Rd5 or Tc41 dont have the killer instinct?

Basically what you are saying is that neither Dungey or Canard have the killer instinct riding style? If you feel that way, then you must be a new fan to this sport!!! You dont win championships by sitting around and waiting!!!!! Both Canard and Dungey have shown they wont take the back seat to no one. From their amateur days to their lites championships neither of them gave an inch....so go back and watch some races and get caught up with whats what and come back with some new examples of riders who havent done much...ill tell you this, every rider in the 450 class has that killer instinct otherwise they wouldnt be racing with the best in the world! The way to prove that fact is for you to get out there and try racing with any of them and see how you do kid!!!

Thank you for so eloquently making my point.

In your first post you write that Tyler is just saying what every other racer is thinking and it's just his "killer instinct." While I can promise you that guys like Dungey and Canard do not think the way that Tyler does, I can also tell you that they both have that killer instinct and aren't complete assholes. My point is that having a "killer instinct" doesn't mean you have to be a total asshole. Bowers (and his father) are assholes - having a "killer instinct" doesn't justify that.

I'd also suggest making sure that you're not burying your foot in your mouth next time you call someone else "slow." You might also consider writing in a fashion that doesn't give someone a headache to read your run-on sentence drivel.

Lmfao, so professor Snope, I guess that superiority complex isn't wearing thin much eh?

No, really though~ thank you for the laugh and I love the grammer annotation. The advise is free of course, correct?

As for a genuine response to your actual post about supercross and the subject matter at hand, and mind you I've read between your lines and still I see nothing but contradictions....so your point just leaves me second guessing that slow remark(reading comprehension) is what I should have stated. Either way I guess you wont be in the running for this years Darwin awards.

If you cannot figure out what I'm saying by reading between my lines, maybe you should start reading what's on the lines instead. There is no hidden message here. You've suggested that Bowers' bully mindset is a result of his killer instinct. You can have the killer instinct (like Trey and Dungey), and not be an asshole (like Bowers).

If you can't put together what I'm saying from this post, then I don't know what to tell you, buddy.

Haha, explain to me what your argument is?

In my first post, I pointed out Bowers has a killer instinct style of riding or (bullying style). I also stated in the last sentence of that same paragraph that Tyler could take a different approach. So where is it that your making a point?

Then you state, that Dungey and Canard dont have the killer instinct and suggested that they have gone far without it. My rebuttal was that they did have that killer instinct but approach it differently. Then you end up writing a long paragraph suggesting the same exact thing, again where is your point?

My God... I honestly don't know how to make this any clearer, so I'm not going to try.

Also, if you couldn't tell that my first post was dripping with sarcasm, then you might seek medical help.

OOOOOOOOuch!!!!! haha. That's a good one.

As for Bowers, someone else said it; he was just brought up that way. You can hear it in his speech. It's too bad because I thought he was doing pretty good . . . until he opened his mouth. He needs to step up the riding and suck it up on the retaliation stuff. He has to be smart enough to realize that, but like I said, it sounds like Pappa Bowers wasn't the greatest role model.

No, I typically ignore yapping dogs, just a nuisance trying to cover their lack of self confidence by continuously barking. I just thought it ironic that when Peelout (if I remember correctly) called you the biggest douche on vital that you yapped about how you treat people on the board exactly like you would in real life. It is highly unlikely that you would tell either of the Bowers "in real life" that they are "a waste of oxygen" or "a piece of shit."

I am 100% confident that I wouldn't bother having a conversation with either one. If I did, however, I wouldn't hesitate to tell either one that I think they're trash for the things that they've done.
