Hi ! i am Steve Matthes i write opinions for a living ?

what the hell does that mean ? what is his job description exactly ? how do you make your money ?

It was on his own website. An editorial works the same way a professional motocrosser does. It gets people to view paying advertisers by bringing in traffic. That's all any motocrosser really is. A really talented bulletin board (at least the ones that get paid)

riders and industry people alike work very hard on thier image , everyone does really it what makes you worth more then maybe some one else doing the same job as you !

Seriously man, just realize that the only one that's been hurting your sons image is you. There comes a point when ever father has to let their sons be a man. Your son is a 21 year old man, take a step back and let him do it. He is by no means a fuckup like can be said about a couple riders that have taken the wrong path, Mike doesn't need a puppetteer.

That article made Mike look good........He was shown in a positive light and given the respect he deserves as a top racer
.riders and industry people alike work very hard on thier image
You arent a racer or an industry person.

One thing is for certain. your image (whoever you are) needs no assassin. It's committing suicide.

That article said very nice things about Mike Alessi. It suggested that something is wrong with his program and suggested a few things that could be the culprit. But nothing bad about Mike himself.

Two things I've learned in this thread.

No way, have you seen a pic of Alphado lately? He's skinny as fuck.

You put content on a website. content gets looked at. Advertisers see that people look at it. Advertisers pay website owner to advertise on site. And they all lived happily ever after.
