I feel like whenever everyone is grabbing their pitchforks in these threads after reviewing a slow mo replay, they also forget how long it takes to stop a bike at your slow ass speed, and how fast these guys are going landing from a rhythm section.... And then the retards proclaiming "he'd have not made the turn, get him!!'"

It's Supercross. Shit happens. Especially when you try rail around the outside of someone who has the inside.
yup, totally agree with you there Crush Smile

I don't see why everyone can't see clearly here that Craig made a bonehead take out move in practice. Craig had total control over his bike going into that corner and had no intention of cutting down. If that was for a transfer spot ok, but pulling stupid shit like that in practice!?

I just hope Martin is as aggressive in his retaliation next week.

pretty heavy heat on CC on the social media outlets. Stay tuned for a CC wife meltdown soon.

I guess Shane must be a retard too and not have any clue what he's talking about. There is absolutely nothing wrong with disagreeing but why is it necessary to add insults with it? So far its been snowflakes, vitards, retards, etc....
Because it's an obvious accident. It's just annoying that the low test cucks jump the gun and get triggered over racing accidents. Like another poster said, the speed they are carrying into those corners is unreal. Craig has absolutely no motive for taking out Martin, it's just a simple accident. Lol

Unless A-Mart did something before that to deserve it, that's a ridiculous move.

The "accident" talk is pretty funny. Maybe if you come from a WWE background and this was your first day watching them thar confangled durt bikermajigs.

When you take an outside line like Martin did and then try to exit on the inside like Martin was fixin' to do you have got to think about someone doing the opposite.

Right. Only been riding for thirty years and watching supercross since Bradshaw was on 125s.

Looked like Craig was on possibly the fastest lap of the session when he came up on A-Mart who was cruising around noticeably slower than Craig. Apparently A-Mart decided to pick up the pace and hold off(hold up) Craig for a couple corners screwing up his fast lap. Looked like Craig was pissed and moved him out of the way.

D-bag move by Martin messing up his fast lap when Martin was obviously cruising around. D-bag move by Craig to park him in the corner. Now let's move on.

I don't think you know how bowls work. The line Craig took is the slowest way to exit. The only time you dive 3/4 of the way to the end of the bowl is when you're aiming for someone.

I agree with this too. CC isn't a dirty rider like that...he just couldn't slow down in time. You could see it in CC's posture when he rode off. 100% accidental.

Martin wasn't cutting down though. He was taking the outside line around the top.

I don't think Craig did that on purpose at all but I think the AMA should sit him out for the night. If you plow someone in practice for no reason and make it so they can't race, I don't think you should be able to either. At least when Osborne hit AC he had a reason to. I'm a fan of both CC and AMart, but just my opinion, there shouldn't be contact in practice, save it for the night show.

...accident or not, Craig has some explaining to do and an apology to make.

If he has an issue with Alex Martin, practice is NOT the time to settle a beef, do it during the race. No one expects that shit during practice. That is like a pitcher beaning another player while warming up in the bullpen.

Either way, I have a feeling that the AMA might have something to say here soon enough...

That's like a main event going for 1st type pass. Not qualifying.

That would be a slippery slope.

Stuff happens out there and it aint safe hence the helmets and stuff.

I really don't think it's the best option but the practice shenanigans have to stop and IMO they need to make an example of someone and this is a perfect situation. Last week AC came away with a knee injury, now AMart's obviously got something wrong so he can't race. This type of thing is just not needed in practice.

Craig's never done anything in the past (that I know of) to make me believe he's too aggressive intentionally

If you think it was an accident, then that's a ridiculous response. That would be like making bowers sit out after his bike bounced up and hit Martin
