Don't care much for Bailey and his low energy level...

Don't care much for Langston and his never ending stories...

I would fire both of them and add JIM "HOLLYWOOD" HOLLEY to the booth.

Jim's energy cannot be matched.

Okay...why the dick comment? I always treated you with respect....

It's my personal statement.

I prefer Jim Holley because the dude jumps out of his chair with excitement. David Bailey is a hero but damn he puts me to sleep. Anyone can do his color commentary....especially Holley.

Holley is FUN...Bailey is BORING.

Keep DB for sure.....he's the same broadcaster we loved at ESPN doing the same exact "low energy" deal he did with Despain and Maiers that got rave reviews.

Holley is great though, he reminds me of Jerry "The King" Lawler from the WWF

Okay...look at it this way

Langston 1
Bailey 0

Langston's color commentary is pretty good...long at times but colorful and accurate....and very articulate....and upbeat.

Man...Bailey is too analytical for general crowd.

Just fucking with you....don't take it personal.

but imo, having Bailey back in there is awesome. After Ralph, I want some calm, cool, savvy color...

It's a two man job...

Man up and make a decision

Weege/Bailey
Wegge/Holley
Or
Wegge/Langston

Don't play the soccer coach.

I've shown respect for Bailey since I first saw him ride in 1986 at Anaheim 1. But come on he is not better than Holley when it comes to EXCITEMENT. And Hollywood may not be as fast as DB but he has lived and breathed motocross his entire life...he has the experience

I agree that Holley is awesome....But how can you not dig Bailey doing the mic? I think he sounds great! It's nice having a legend in there that knows what the hell he's talking about.

Holley is a LEGEND.

Dude had to race against the best motocrossers of all time...Johnson, ward, JMB, Bradshaw, Bailey...etc.

He did it racing those Yamaha's which were just production bikes.

He was a world champion as well.

Dude is the LOGICAL choice. Rodi Cup Champion.

Dude has a smile on his face all the time.

Check out Holley's interview with JLAW at Supercrossonline. Holley is the COOLEST DUDE in the sport.

I'm done with the boring bailey.

I think Bailey is fantastic - I love his insight and I actually like his low-key demeanor. Listening to Langston is very entertaining in my opinion.

I think the setup is ideal - keep it going. Holley is good, but I certainly enjoy it the way it is.

I kind of like Weigandt Lt. Col. He sounds kind of like a young Jim Lampley.

Holley is the best there's. His livewire things have kept me alive for some years. He and Baily would work good for me. I guess this a matter of taste, and we will newer get a consensus in this matter.

You are right about Bailey over thinking the race. 5 or 6 times he tried to set himself with a Grant is getting tired Alessi trains harder I think call but came up goose eggs. He was goose eggs last week in the second moto trying to set himself up with a great call.

Other than that Bailey is money. I also think Weigandt has been very good.

I like Bailey just for the fact he's not afraid to call things the way they are most of the time, where as other announcers sugar coat it.

I also really enjoyed Langston's work in the booth as well. I enjoyed it when he did it a few times last year too.

And so because DB cannot "jump out of his chair" you're dogging him?

Bailey is great (calm, cool, etc.)
Weigandt> very strong in the box+alot of knowledge
Langston> very good has been there and done that. Plus adds to the international feel.
