Again...I'd love to see a round table of legend analysts....but the reality is, at this point of our sport, they would all have to do it for gratis or peanuts...
DV was right, we all know about the rules, flags, and restarts. Show the damn racing! every broadcast they are yapping about nonsense and the crowd erupts and never show what happened and then all of a sudden the leader is on the ground or a crucial pass was made and they don’t show it in replay ... show the damn Race!!!!

The irony of the hipster douche arguing with moto over the very meaning of moto is priceless..
That was the most painful 10 min of pulp ever recorded

You also have to assume they have time and want to do it.
Being on air like that takes time and prep.
That requires two things. Content (the race/pro commentary/teams/mfg.) and access to watchers (distribution)
Rutledge is completely mis-cast for Supercross, but maybe this is NBC/Feld's attempt to be creative to
bring money in. What if advertisers will pay $0.50 for every watcher of the broadcast and Rutledge brings
his 500,000+ social media followers to the program. NBC/Feld just upped their income by a quarter million dollars.
That only works because he is an outsider, as are his followers, so it's all potential upside.
He's annoying and a bad fit but if it was about advertiser dollars, can see the angle, but don't like it.
Pit Row
Do you ever wonder, just how many advertising dollars are available in the world. Seems every website, every network, every sport, every radio station, everyone needs ad revenue to exist. Maybe there just isn't enough ad money to go around. Maybe these entities need to figure out a new method to monetize.
Anytime you hear the words, grow the sport, it's from someone who stands to gain from it financially.
How come no one in this super gnar extreme sport can do the same?
Kids/teens/young adults are millionaires off social media, but not one "star" of our sport (or their handlers) can accomplish that, even with head start in mx.
Show's that it's like DV says, this is and will be a core sport, it won't be NASCAR.
That also means we viewers might want to consider being a little more grateful or we can be outside looking in while they show more Pro Cornhole
The way he talked so much and for so long without stopping on pulp mx was insane. All he did was have me praying he'd finally shut the fuck up and let me hear some DV. Or ANYONE ELSE for that matter. My prayers went unanswered as that jackass continued until i just clicked off the pdcast. I wont watch any podcast if he's a guest. He's too damn irritating and i cant fathom him helping this sport in any way. Maybe he can, but i sure as hell dont see how.
As for Rutledge Wood, he thinks he is more funny and more important than most SX fans do. I have never understood his appeal, I thought US Top Gear was a joke after about 2 episodes. I rarely watch NASCAR so I don’t know what he does for them. I assume he plays the silly overweight kid that asks the dumb questions so us idiots don’t have to. I am not a fan, he is probably a decent guy, but I just don’t want to invest the time to find out.
As for MotoGP, F1, BSB and WSBK broadcasts, these are really well done shows. They give you good info but don’t treat you like you have a serious brain injury. They assume you know something about the sport and are smart enough to figure it out if you are the least bit interested. They don’t dumb it down to attract the non fans. They know who they are servicing and the programing reflects that. You have to remember Feld is not a racing company, it is an entertainment company, its all about the sizzle and not about the steak.
This bloke, is the very definition of a complete CockWomble
