Risk factor is always lurking even when riding/racing for fun. Glad Chad's stuck throttle ended better than Emig's did.

Noticed he doesn't have Arma logos anymore. Thought he was one of the investors.

It’s funny how every time there’s a guest in the booth someone comes on here and says “so and so should replace Ricky in the booth.” It absolutely never fails.

Maybe Chad doesn’t want the job? Or RV, RD, Alessi, Windham, etc, etc, etc? Maybe if they wanted the job they would have applied when there was an opening?

Ricky does a nice job. Is he perfect at announcing? No. Not many people are. But he does a good enough job and he’s the greatest dirt bike racer to ever live. He offers an unbelievable amount of experience and knowledge. There are some real donkeys here who just want to complain or attack anyone and everyone. It’s pretty pathetic.

A couple issues with your points. One, Ricky does have unbelievable knowledge and experience. BUT, he doesn’t share that. It’s just your typical watered down announcing. Bailey offered knowledge

That’s one issue YOU have. Which is an opinion so it’s subjective. Everything else is a fact. “Chad should take his job” maybe Chad doesn’t want his job.

Just so you know, Feld doesn't want in depth insight, they want general commentary that any person can understand.
That's why they didn't put Weege in the booth...too much info that casual fans won't get.

Chad should come out of retirement immediately to satisfy Big Lenny's needs.

He should be doing whatever he wants. He's retired and a legend, he was a great ambassador to the sport

People forget how many times Reed straight up beat Carmichael.. Especially 2003 season in Reeds rookie season.
RC4 won the titles, But man.. Reed has 44 wins for a reason.

You were doing somewhat ok until your last two sentences then you just fell in line as a donkey yourself. Just sayin’

FWIW. I don’t agree with your opinion that Ricky was the greatest dirt bike racer to ever live as that is a pretty broad brush you are painting with and yes he has knowledge and experience but often times can’t articulate it into real words or something understandable. Not hating, just stating!

Dang. Your approval of my opinions is all I’ve ever wanted in life. I promise to do better.

Chad mentioned that he would love to join Aldon for a pre season and get in shape to do a couple races. That would be really cool
