It was said that DC/RacerX did not renew Nerd's contract at contractor's end..... nothing about being fired.

Nerd did not get canned, we just didn't renew his contract. He did good work for us but we didn't have the budget to continue. And what I wrote in the initial thread, if I remember correctly, was this:

Steve, I did not berate you, I simply disagreed with your opinion, and because it's impossible to have WADA or USADA and not use their code and the drugs they test and penalize for, the column was a moot point. And James Stewart and Cade Clason did not accidentally ingest anything--they had prescriptions for what they tested for but not the TUEs to use them.

And you're right, you were hard to work with, but I still miss you.

Good luck with the next election.

Racer X

The thread got deleted? Haha what a joke. No wonder that nobody knows anything in this sport.

What do you expect when people run around this place gossiping and shit talking each other like a bunch of high schoolers.

Don't blame the principal; blame the kids.

I didn’t get my answer.

That doesn’t bode well for either Steve and it proves my point:


So, I’ll ask it again & I expect full explanations & reasoning as to “who” you picked and, most notably, “why”:

Dave
Or
Sammy

You will be judged!

Van Halen fans are watching! We are waaaaay past all this trivial Motocross crap.

Question #2: What’s the most important part of a pick-up truck?

Answers are limited to 500 words (Q1) & 2 words (Q2).

Queensbury rules apply (Rule 17, sect. 5, pt. 1).



If we’re wrong, will we be reassigned to fly cargo planes full of rubber dog-shit out of Hong Kong?

This is the reason why we think that "Moto is shrouded in secrecy". Stinks. Dry

Its gotta be tough to be a photographer, journalist, and the dude w/ the delete button at vital.
Let it ride. If you get emails over this stuff then maybe its time to buy your own lunch?

I understand maybe not wanting name calling, bad mouthing, gossip and such on your 'forum' but what else is this forum for then? Delete inappropriate comments but the whole thread?

Not that it matters any in 'real life' but can the Admin of the forum at least explain their thinking with deleting the thread? It was bringing you lots of web traffic! I didn't see anything so bad.

Nerd did not get canned, we just didn't renew his contract. That is litterally the quote on quote "nice" way of firing someone.

And by the way, 1978/79, Van Halen was killing it. Concert was great. 1981, they were all a bunch of stumbling bumbling drunks and that concert sucked.

Rabble rabble!!!!

It’s frustrating knowing I’m only allowed to be a fan of misdirection. Good thing the magicians also suck at their jobs. Get those rabbits back in, you’ll need your hats to block the sun.

What's ironic is that the Motodrive message board (which sort of morphed into VitalMX) used to be the "outlaw" board where people could discuss things that would get taken down at Motonews / Mototalk by TFS.

Now, it's become basically the same place that Mototalk eventually became right before things started to go downhill over there, minus the gate fee to get in.

Is that the front gate or the back gate?

If I take anything out of the other 15 pages and these three.... it's that saying right there!!! Pretty sure I'm going to use it too much and probably in a context that doesn't even make sense, but it'll still be funny! Laughing Laughing
