Apparently, a decent interview can't stay live on here. Which one of y'all is worried about your payoff?

At the other end of the spectrum, quite a few interviews are absolutely loaded with bullcrap and no one seems to have any problem with it.
Oh well...

Just spitballing here, but it could be something way less juicy than what some of you are thinking. Maybe it didn't have anything to do with being critical of Feld, but instead had more to do with Cole dropping a few curse words in the interview. I have absolutely zero knowledge of this, but it's always said that Honda likes for their riders to be pretty buttoned up, so perhaps the team just wasn't too stoked on it. Just a thought. Could be wrong.

Dunno.. good reading. But being deleted a couple times.. should tell you not to post again. LOL.

If Cole..errr...whatever the persons name was..ha.. had issue with it, why wouldn't he contact the offending website to edit out what he didn't want published? I doubt that's why it got canned....all conspiracy theories now until someone gives a quick reason if its warranted I spose.

I'm not about to post it again. Figured I'd give it one more go considering people were asking about it. I've spoken with said rider about the interview, and there's no complaints on that end. It's a shame too, because there's a lot of other cool stuff that he and I talked about in there that's worth reading. With there being so many topics on the state of the sport and things that could make it better, it's somewhat surprising to me when a rider has actually has voiced an honest opinion, it gets suppressed.

I hear ya.. stuff that we all talk about and I've said it quite often on the change needed in purse money, etc.. and here is someone (that people would listen to more than us joe blows) that sticks his neck out a tiny bit (saying it in a public interview) about wanting some change.. and voila..taken down..maybe too critical of the ones who bring the show to town?

Not sure what you're talking about, but payoffs? When does that happen, exactly? I must have missed the memo.

Why was it deleted? Best interview I've read this SX season.

Cole and his agent have both told me the interview was taken out of context/wording and that it didn't represent him as it has been presented. That's why I removed it...

Final call on removing it was mine, but when they tell me that it's been altered and doesn't represent the original interview they gave, then yes, I removed it. The interview still exists on that website, so it's not like I removed it from existence, but I'm choosing not to support it on this website because of what I've been told by the party involved in the interview.

Btw, I love the pay-off claims floating around lately. Maybe I'd have my own place if I got pay-offs Laughing

What if the other side said it was accurate? You got one side of the story here. Agent and rider deemed it unfavorable. Based on that you acted on it. What if it was accurate, but still unfavorable? Who benefits by having it removed? Rider and agent. So isn't it possible they will obviously say it was taken out of context?

Oh it was accurate!

If the media had to pay $200 per event, parking $50 and $25 per ticket they would feel the same as Seely.

It's a he-said, she-said situation in a way. I've never met nor heard of the person on the one-side of the interview nor have any past work to hold up to his claims. I do however have two members on the other side saying there are miss-quoted answers in there related to questions that aren't presented in the interview as they were at the time of the interview. Also as I stated above, the interview isn't be hosted on our website, it exists on its own source. I didn't delete it from public eyes, I just chose based on what I know to not have it displayed on our website. You're free to read it at its home and believe every word in it if you'd like. But because of it's questionable truth and the response against it I received, I've chosen not to have it pushed through this website.

So.. said agent and rider can't get it edited or removed from original site?

Think once it was posted.... he had regrets (because someone told him he better have regrets) on how he sounded and how he criticized the circus a wee bit. That's my conspiracy theory anywho.

Surely... reading it again.. there is nothing in that that shed poor light on him (except maybe the few curse words).

And.. to remove it from here... no problems with the decision, yours to make.

Oh well..C'est la vie.
