Oh man! You just CAN'T criticize the U.S.A. here. If you carry on like this you'll get branded as a "Hater" and get "clicked". You have been warned !

(however feel free to go over to the Non-Moto section and refer to the entire U.S. black population as "animals" - that's safe from getting you thrown out).

You guys are pretty funny. There is a LOT more leeway here than a site like say MXTrax ? What a joke that is. You could always start your own moto forum also.

I guess this is just one of those, "That guy doesn't/does deserve a ride" threads.

The "does" ones are positive and the "doesn't" ones are whiny annoyances. This thread is of the latter.

Well you may have spoken too soon, he just got a 6th place, that is 'NOT TOO BAD'!

Anyone that has never raced in a World Championship race is not qualified to criticize those that have. If you can qualify for a start in a World Championship event, you are fast.

And please my fellow Americans, don't use the ---- Well RV is also on Team Kawa, and he is just protecting his fellow team mate, you know what I mean, Americans - we need to just get more real in our thinking and our comments, otherwise the Euros are just laughing at us when we say stuff like Covington is doing GREAT, look at the standings............

Not really, your criticism just needs to be substantiated. Some Americans can't take it, but most can. Just like any country, for that matter. Also, when you're taking potshots at USA riders on a USA based forum- what do you expect? That said, I don't think OP was taking a potshot, some Americans in this thread are just being fucking crybabies.

Julian, I would understand your criticism if Thomas was at the very least a highly touted amateur, but he wasn't (even then, highly touted amateur doesn't equal pro results- doubly so if you're moving to another continent to race). It sounds like you're using the metric of him being a past AMA champion for where his results should be, but he never was. It actually seems like he's where he would be if he was racing in the states, which was probably what RV is eluding to when he says that Thomas is doing really well.

When a privateer makes a Supercross main for the first time or a predominately 10th place rider gets an 8th, we don't say that his results are shitty, do we? Not everyone can be a Herlings, RC, AC, or Dungey-esque rider.

Problem: people everywhere are supposed to be PC@ 100%, period.
Free thinking is perceived as hate, ignorance, etc. Unreal how effective the tactic has been.
Leaves a lot of folks confused.

All Americans on here were just accused of racism of blacks. Wow.
Barcia and Co. Are gonna have to open that can. Woohooo!!!!

Aaahhhhh, there are plenty of 'merican's fed up with the politically correct/koombyahh"/you don't have to be so mean spirited" drivel that has pervaded our society for the last 20 or so years.

And it's easy to tell what side you're on.

If you agree with most of what Trump says, you're on one side.
If you don't, you're on the other.

Well was anyone expecting Covington to be a top contender? I don't believe he was a top amateur in America or anything. He's had some good rides, and I believe RV said something to the effect of he's doing well for a young guy in a different environment and it would take him a few years to get comfortable. I don't see anything worthy of bitching about there.
Covington was a very fast amateur. He had the option to go to ride for Mitch or go to Europe. He picked Europe cause of the experience he'd get and that PC ride will be waiting for him.

An occurring theme of "us versus them", meaning the US against the world is always present.. So to not pussy foot around...The US spent decades developing riders that could race with the worlds best. Then, the US found it's global dominance and has held that for several decades. Currently, we are fighting for victory, and it is hard to come by.

FOOTNOTE- If anyone honestly thinks that RV's GP efforts were definitive proof of anything, they are mistaken. A healthy, focused RV at 100% would have very quickly dominated. He is that good. Everts is the only guy in 20 years that had the talent of a JS7, RC, or RV.

people need to quit bashing podium speeches and official comments. this is business, and then their are personalities. let's talk about paint drying instead.
If anyone honestly thinks that RV's GP efforts were definitive proof of anything, they are mistaken.

I don't feel I am mistaken when I think RV's GP efforts were definitive proof he "phoned his effort in" by coming into the season underprepared. The killer for me (and it spoke volumes) was RV not racing the warm up race but instead practicing the day after to get lap times. WTH?

I am thrilled Covington is racing over there. But let's face it he is not Americas finest and he chose to race the toughest series in the world. What more do you expect from the kid? RV was right on and he is doing fine for who he is. If he was here in the U.S. He would be consistent top 5 week n and week out

So, RV says a rider is doing really well (Which he obviously is not), that means every single American agrees with RV? Funny, not only you agree with that ridiculously STUPID logic, some others agree with you as well, amazing..... What is up with some of you guys here using that flawed logic?

"That one guy said that other guy is doing well, when he is obviously not. Lets call out the entire nation based on what that one guy said"

Covington is doing better than 99.999999 percent of the rest of Americans. Damn just because RV didn't rip him doesn't mean anything.

He is making mains and that isn't easy.
