It's enough that he can't pass anybody without making contact or shoving them off the track, the first thing he says is "he hit, me, it's his fault" when it was clearly his fault. And not to nitpick, but he did toss his bike like a little girl too.

He honestly can't ride on a track with people. He is out of control.

He's hungry, but sometimes he bites off more than he can chew...

I haven't paid too much attention to him speaking up to now, but I've enjoyed his speed. He sounded like a whiny little bitch. There was no way that crash was anyone's fault but his.

Got a feeling Mitch is gonna break a wrench off in his ass for tossing his bike down like that.

Yeah, I kinda wish Erin would leave those guys alone when stuff like that happens. They're always going to be mad and they're always going to think it's the other guy's fault. That was a meat grinder crash, but it looked to me like Stroupe tried to run it in where there wasn't any room.

You guys are ridiculous. You pick everyone apart. You know what? They are professionals. You are not in their position, so therfore, STFU.

"they are professionals" thats the whole point! so they should act like one. Leave the hissy fits for back at the truck when the cameras are not on them.

you're right, we're not getting paid big bucks to ride a dirtbike. It comes with the dough, if they don't like it-- quit.

Spot on.

I would be angry also, but I would take the time to do the little interview and just deal with it.

It was obvious he tried to scrub the jump and ran right into Davalos. I think the announcers and all of us can agree on that. He was just pissed-once he sees the tape he will realize Davalos didn't do shit wrong.

Good point about shoving the mic in their face as they sulk away from doing a bonehead move. I am firmly convinced you'd get similar insight from me if you interviewed me after I screwed something up:

"Did you see that mother F'in hammer twist over and smash my thumb??!! Someone needs to do somethin bout them renegade hammers!"

Reminds me of LL's in 2006. He threw his helmet and bike and got a nice big fat chewing out from Kawi that day.

Is a correction/apology going to be forthcoming? Is Mitch that type of guy to make the kid right a wrong or just let things lay?

He is still very young in his approach. Yeah he should have waited but adrenaline got the best of him.

This is why that dumb bitch should not go asking questions to riders right after a crash.

You get responses like J.s and Stroupe give when you do that.

But, seriously...that was a pretty nasty RAGDOLL/FACEPLANT!
At least he picked up (and threw down--I agree, bad move, but it was obviously due to crash damage and not mechanical breakdown) the right bike!

When he sees the replay, I think he will be embarassed for what he said (and did)--then it's a "heat of the moment episode" and no big deal....

I like the kid--kinda' reminds me of Canard...in a good way Unsure

boys boys boys, let be honest and moto fans here, Stroupe was pissed off...but, we always compare our sport to nascar..in nascar the boys involded in the crash are usually pissed off but then they get a chance to look at the camera shot before commenting or while commenting..if Stroupe sees it he will know he came over...i love Erin going right up to him..we want the next level you gotta get the emotions, but, maybe a little showing what happened is in store..

This sport, our sport, is coming along. We will rival Nascar, lets take some lessons from them. Emotion sells!!
