I wonder if he kisses his mother with that mouth. Ha. Kidding. He's so energetic it's pretty funny. There was a little snipet of something in there I'm going to wait to see if anyone else picked up.

What is the procedure to get it fixed and how long will he be out after the procedure?

Pretty sure anyone that has a fractured vertebrate can sympathize with him. I can relate to what he said about lifting the 5 pound item when it went out, that is how mine does too. Just move it a certain way and wowzers here comes days of grief.

I hope he manages this well and has better days ahead and his wisdom teeth too, dang....

I have the same condition/injury. While no two injuries are the same, I've lived with mine for 30+ years, and the docs say its stable enough that it doesn't need surgery. Carey said he finally had to get his fused, but it doesn't sound like KR's is that bad. The episodes come about 3-or-4 times a year, and when they do, its excruciating. Simply standing and walking from the bed to the bathroom will make you cry from the pain, even the mild ones require my wife to put on my socks and shoes for me. And then a few days later, you're bouncing around like nothing happened. I expect to see a different KRoc out there this weekend.

when is the last time anyone defended an outdoor title outdoors? i'm talking 450 and 250? probably Carmichael?

i also thought he was going to have a strong chance at defending his title

Great interview guyB. I have back issues from casing a jump racing 80's back in the late 1980's, has stuck with me ever since and it sucks. Can totally relate to picking up or moving the smallest item and aggravating it. Best of luck KR! Get better soon.

Thanks for the interview, but speeding up a few swear words? Really? It's part of the English language... it would be really nice to get over this ridiculous hang up on swearing. Not like Vital has a problem dealing with profanity.

Makes me wonder if RCH's lawyers are already thinking about this from a contract standpoint? Pre-existing condition that was obviously not known about or disclosed. If Kenny isn't able to get back to form, I bet there will be conversations.

Kenny has completely lost his German accent, and picked up one from Murrieta, it's kind of funny.

F#CK!!

Is there a way to automatically ban anyone that decides to go with an RV avatar? No disrespect to RV, but the guys that run his avatar are fishermen of a different breed. . .

The swear phrases are used in Germany not as part of the German language but its how the youth talks recently Silly

There are certain people they use I swear almost in every sentence.
He will get over it.

He said he had all the paper work ready for the AMA. So I am assuming he would pass if he took a test.
