I don't think I've ever complained about the announcing as I know they're doing the best job that they can in the moment and it's not easy.
I'm just really tired of hearing Ralph talk about the so-called chip Cooper has on his shoulder regarding AC. 😬
Yes, it's well known as amateurs AC received most of the press and ride/sponsor offers. But seeing how they have raced against each other since they were nine years old I don't ever recall Cooper saying anything really bad that would warrant this CONSTANT dumb saying....
Coop Is like a pit bull regarding his racing he will not let up till the checkers fly. How anyone cannot admire that boggles my mind.
3 2 1 Let the Cooper haters lineup.

I also think it's probably bullshit that DeCoster said to Webb "Am I wasting my time" in regards to his slow start to the season.

Seriously, he can’t just not say anything while he’s in the booth and some of it is filler or just trying to make it interesting from the casual fan’s perspective
I never really got into the Ralph bashing. I don't mind the guy, I think he's truly a fan of the sport, but the Green Kawasaki, Red Honda, etc, etc, that's stating to get to me. I don't recall, did Duffey do that on the first three races?
I'd forgotten, but Ralph reminded me again last night....
I'm really shocked that the rivalry between Coop and Kenny isn't talked about more.

I've always liked Ralph's enthusiasm, but the canned factoids and anecdotes he repeats about each rider are tiresome.
It's a fact that we don't always like what comes out of the booth, but you have to think that each week they have a lot of new people watching the show. The hardcore race fan pretty much knows all the history of quite a few riders , so hearing it over and over does seem to grate on everyone.
And for all that is love and holy, can someone please tell the broadcast crew to stop cutting away from the race, while the race is going on. If they want to show something from the previous week, either split screen it or show it during a break. But don't EVER completely cut away from the racing while the race is going on. Holy Fuck!
Been watching Supercross for 47 years and this is the first time I've publicly complained about the broadcasters. That's probably older than you've been alive.
Chances are the producers and some of the people who work on the broadcast read this site. Have you noticed we haven't seen the Ken Roczen crash over and over again after it was talked about on here?
So if by some miracle, I don't have to hear about the chip on Cooper's shoulder then mission accomplished and you can thank me. Later....
Btw See Are125--that is GOLD!!!
Its. Not. That. Hard.
Follow the super tight race up front, put Tomac & Roczen moving through the pack in a smaller window, and call the damn race and what's happening on front of your eyes.
