You can't even compare those two rides. One rider fought his ass off to comeback through the pack, the other played slow down tactics when he could have checked out and won easily.

Edit: so my point is..if Tomac took Dungey out I think it would have been intentional and a dirty move. Osborne's pass was a race move going forward.

Eli would never take out his championship rival, he has way too much class for a move like that! Ask Dean Wilson...

If Dungey was floundering around in the lower end of the top 10 on the last lap and Tomac was flying through the pack towards the front after going down in the first turn I would have applauded Tomac. Osborne did everything correct.

Tomacs display was nothing I've ever seen before....thankfully it failed

Maybe Dungey should have Osborned Tomac at the beginning of the race and take out both bikes. Than he could have walked off the track to grab the champion trophy before the race ended. But he didnt, thats why he is Ryan Dungey.

Why was Kent Howerton able to use that paddle wheel anyway? And why did Bob Hannah pull over? And why do we call Ricky the "goat" ? And is James coming back at Daytona? And ....... Silly and yes I know it was Jimmy. What is this like 20 threads on this.

Wilson started that one and tomac ended it. IMO it didnt look like tomac meant to do that after the finish. Tomacs bime jumped upwards then the contact happened. Watch that video ago and you can clearly see that mid way through the turn tomacs bike stood up and it made him go straight towards deano. But if i remember correctly, deano did start with the aggressive passes in that race. Even in the interview after the race tomac said he doesnt like to ride like that, but hes not just gunna let someone do it to him and him not do anything back.

Cool seeing that old video but that was nothing compared to what Eli pulled. Chad pushed him wide one time and them raced forward. Eli tried to take out Dungey 3 times and in doing so completely changed/altered the outcome of the race. He was holding the pack up so bad that the field was bunching up behind them and he ended up losing the race to a guy that would have finished 3/4th if Eli did not ride dirty

It seems like a lot of people either think it was awesome that Osborn took out Savatgy or "they don't have a problem with it" I have a feeling that these same guys would be so pissed if Tomac took out Dungey. AND what is a BIG question, what would the AMA do if Tomac won the championship by that take out? Just a $7500 fine? Would they be consistent? They never have been before.
Funny how you see things. If Joey knew Zach was there and stood up, he would have done a Dungey. If Dungey had ignored Tomac and not aggressively got out of the way, he would have been on the dirt. But, Eli came back and went at Dungey a few more times - not to pass, but to go at Dungey. The crazy thing is that Dungey is the only rider that doesn't go back at the other guy. So Tomac knew he could go at Dungey heaps without risking retaliation. That is amazing - not Tomac, but Dungey. Has anyone won 4 titles without needing to rub other riders hard. The sport allows it, but Dungey chooses not to do it. And people hate on him for it. Crazy!

What if Dungey Osbourned Tomac?
