GL, if you're out there, thank you. Your live commentary as Kenny was picking the track apart during the 2nd moto was liking being aboard the bike. Describing line selection, apex, carrying momentum, avoiding deep stuff, managing breathing while being at speed, all the while on a beat up ass track. Even for Barcia as Ferrandis was hunting him down. Every little bobble and kick, you were on top of it. Much thanks, you were on point sir.

It was a breath of fresh air to hear less of the woman who chimes in with the lengthy ("well I talked to this person or that person") 5 minute talks as well. Did I see a "baby bump"? Congrats for her nevertheless.

Weege t'ing up GL, good stuff.

Thanks guys.

Love the broadcast booth. I agree with the will segments. Not necessary or helpful. Takes away from battles most of the time to tell us how they feel. Always the same just change the rider. I was fired up when GL was doing that too. Keep bringing the 🔥👍

Thanks guys.
No not talking. She was chatting as she opens every long winded rant about what we read a week a go.

Both those guys have a natural talent for announcing. Weege with rapid fire race calls and GL just effortless, like he’s chilling with 🍺 in hand. Nothing seems awkward.

Poor Wil, I feel like they throw it to her when things are a little slow and I swear 100% of the time right after she starts getting all her words out (and there’s a lot of words) a pass happens.

She brings nothing. She has a week to work on her segments and she comes up with nothing. It's a freaking joke week after week.

Your hatred of her is bordering on unhealthy.

I have given GL quite a bit of criticism over the years, but he has really stepped it up this year, he sounds comfortable and confident in the booth, and figured out the right amount to speak, not too little not too much.
Credit where credit is due, great job GL!

Bring them to supercross ! Wil gets to be apart of the broadcast team for both SX and MX. At least give GL and Weege a few rounds to be apart of.
