Seely looking for retaliation

3/1/2016 8:46pm
I like Seely, but this is dumb. He sounds like a chick when she gets mad, all bringing up old arguments and stuff.

Either let it go, or pay him back.

Talk to Canard..

But let this go.

Right.
I'd expect there are a few notes for next week's rider's meeting, and pre-race talks with a couple guys.

Why no photos or video of the final incident between Anderson and Seely? Everyone was focused on Dungey and Musquin lapping Stewart.

Rubbish. They're all contact at some point, and consistency hasn't been a word used to describe the treatment of any of them... much less this, which Gallagher has said he'll let them sort out... when in reality the situation is DIRECTLY comparable to Bagget/Anderson last year, Friese and Peick up to Anaheim, and Vince's repeated behaviour over the years...

There might be this week, but his comment after the event was reported as "we'll let them sort it out"

1.) People talk about how Seely needs to ride aggressive
2.) Clear difference in aggression from Cole at the GA Dome IMO, compared to earlier in the season, years past, etc. he looks hungry, like he's just getting started.

Also, people just chopping the turn and block passing is lame. Takes no skill, just recklessness. To clarify, rider A has completed 90% of a 180 turn and rider B intersects him perpendicularly. Someone tried it on Weston a few weeks ago (not the famous incident), he responded the same way I would. Grab a fist full of throttle and hold it wide.

Here's what you say...AFTER the fact. One of my favorite line's I ever read in Cycle News..."I parked him" I would think Seely's got Stanton on speed dial.


1990 Sweden MXDN
Italian Alex Puzar led the moto aboard his works Suzuki 250. Behind him were 500cc riders Leisk and Geukens. Stanton, meanwhile, rode like a man possessed, slashing and burning his way toward the front. At the halfway mark he was up to fifth, and soon thereafter zapped Johansson and Finn Pekka Vehkonnen. Next up was the Belgian Geukens. The duo exited into the track's back section, but when he came back into view, Stanton was all alone. Where was Geukens? Stanton knew the answer. "In practice, Geukens follows you, passes you back and forth,” he explained of the Belgian’s Saturday practice antics. “It's stupid and I got tired of his BS all day. So I put him down in the back. I parked him. He screwed with us too many times and I got tired of it.”

"He hit me in front, he went inside," said Geukens. "It's not a nice way to pass."

Now days? Jesus Christ , maybe were all becoming pussies? Blink Fucking over reactive politically correct world!
And Geukens response after the race. Classic. Professional.

After the race, he came looking for Stanton. "Congratulations," he told him, shaking his hand. "But I'll remember it for next year."

If dungey hits him, Will you go kongols? I still do not understand how a fight in the NHL is awarded a short penalty while in what is undoubtedly a more physical sport, Awarded a suspension and fine? There are way more eyes on The average hockey game than a supercross race.

Can you guys imagine the roar if Cole did something to retaliate against Dungey and he gets hurt in the process missing the Cship? Total meltdown would ensue.

I feel Cole is a super cool dude and he just got caught up in the moment, hopefully it stops here and doesnt end in any suspensions from further problems in the near future. I think if they got into it though, Anderson comes out winning that battle of aggresive riding.

Totally agree on the turn chopping. I don't know why more guys that pull that crap don't have tire tracks on their shrouds.

It's not a 30 minute moto, and with 45 second lap times you need to press the issue to get to the front. Why not grab a fist full of throttle? Because you are then laying on the ground...

Only the last pass is what I'm talking about, but that was a different type of corner where rolling the first and doubling out was common so that's the grey area.

Why grab a handful? There are two options, rider B can back out at the last second (what happened with Weston). And rider A goes along with his race. Option two is that rider B is a sitting duck to rider A and his 450 and gets blasted.

Seely is slowly becoming the next Jake Weimer, a nice guy that rides really fast and let's other riders push him around. We saw that in the title race with Anderson and we are seeing it again. I remember Weimer talking the same talk, about how he needs to get tough with the other riders, but he never did. I like both of those guys, but it's time for Seely to stand up for himself, and be the alpha dog, if he has it in him. JMHO.

I concur.

The most dangerous guys are the ones that get dumped and can remain quiet about it. They've usually retaliated enough times in the past to learn not to yap about it beforehand.

With Shorty retiring soon we need another Smiling Assassin.

He came off as someone who's nice/not usually aggressive trying to be a tough guy, it was kind of awkward. I get it he was pissed though. As mentioned already, he spilled the beans too much and I bet it made Anderson giggle as well.

I'm sure he's calmed down by now and is over it, just putting in work at the Honda track.

What kind of lame ass comment is that?

Are you watching the the races?

Every guy in the main is trying to race forward, just like last week where #7 was behind Friese and Canard was one in front of him.

FYI- Any and all of the dudes in the main are fast and tough as hell. Yes some are faster than others but they are all trying to race hard and be as competive as they can getting the best result possible through not crashing when others do, better starts, not riding over their head and more.

By the way, how is it less of an offence just because of your standings in the race or series?

Baggett put Anderson on the ground hard and I don't think he has messed with him since.

This is getting kind of funny at this point. It's like every week fans are looking for the next thing to be offended by. Personally, I haven't seen a single move this year that I thought was over the top. Aggressive, sure. Over the top? Get real.

My first thought, when watching that euro ax video, was how people would call for a lifetime ban if anyone tried a take out move like that in the US

Just a little note here.....considering most folks didn't actually see what happened as it wasn't on the broadcast.
I was actually at the Atlanta race sitting in industry so I could see that section very clearly, that was not just an aggressive move by Jason.

He shifted up, aimed and T-Boned right into Seely....that was definitely over the top and I am 53 so I have watched some take outs over the years.
I love aggressive racing and have no problem with Anderson or anyone else for that matter bumping to make passes.
What Anderson did at the end of the main wasn't at all about making a pass and could have ended Coles year.

If wanting to see guys actually race instead of just trying to ram each other makes me a pussy well then.......fucking meow.
