Levi Kitchen podium interview

He nailed it. More guys need to do their interview that way. He talked about qualifying, how he was feeling before the mains, trying to focus on himself and not guys going down around him. Way better than “ya my *insert team bike here* hooked up great. We rode hard and came out on top”

I’m fairly confident he wasn’t practicing his podium speech this week. What a killer night for him and we will see what the confidence boost brings. PNW!!

If I remember correctly, the whole thing has to do with her being 16/17 and he's 20.

They’re mad cause they can’t win a C class trophy and Levi is winning pro races and making great coin for a top team . It must be tough being a squid 🦑

Apparently it was Kenny on the 450 podium. I didn't hear him say it, but it was talked about in the Race Day thread.

He’s 21 turning 22 next month and she was 15 and he finally publicly posted her on her 16th birthday a couple months ago. If we are going to address it mine as well get accurate ages to not soften the blow that it’s completely illegal and gross

Only grows the legend of Kenny, I loved it. Shades of T.O. "I love me some me!" hahaha

I worked at a call center in the industry and when you got an email compliment, or someone called to give a compliment to an advisor you were supposed to send a companywide "kudos email." I thought they were silly so I would always do something sarcastic or make it way over the top. Well one day someone called in to compliment me and by stroke of luck I was the one to answer the call. My email stated: 

"Another fine job. Kudos to me!!!    My efforts do not go unnoticed by me."

It may or may not have resulted in a companywide email from management about taking kudos seriously.    Hahahaha

Kind of a big gap at this stage in life, but i don't see how it's gross. Especially if they're keeping it 'platonic' until marriage. They could have a great thing going.

In Washington state, the age of consent is 16 but if the younger person is under 18 then the maximum age difference is 60 months. So for someone who just turned 16, the older person should have also have just turned 21 or younger. Sounds like this may be more than 60 months. 
 

That’s the legality angle. The idea that it is gross is sort of subjective, but I can say that if any of my kids would have been the older party in a relationship with those ages, I would have dissuaded them as strongly as possible……

It's way less concerning if they're waiting until marriage but I doubt they are. Anyway not only are the power dynamics way out of wack because of their ages, Levi is also a famous professional athlete. Not saying he is or would, but it would be very easy for him to manipulate/take advantage of her. 

If that was your 15 year old daughter would you be ok with her dating a 21 year old?

I ran across him at Bonefish grille in Tally a few weeks back then a couple days after that passed him on I75. That’s all, can’t miss his truck.

Levi has now held off Jett coming up from behind in MX and SX to get a win. Pretty cool. 

If he can figure out how consistently bring that speed he may be the new guy to beat in 250's.

Idk if you would consider the triple crown holding off Jett. He used Jett as a tow and pulled away from Stilez in the third.

Depends on the guy. So if you want a blanket "no", I can't give say. Probably not preferable though.

Would be way worse if they were together since he was in school. 18 year old dating a 12 year old?

I wasn't trying to get you to say "no" I was honestly posing a genuine question. I think there are very few situations in which this relationship would be ok, but I don't know know anything about it aside from their ages. 

From the outside though it's definitely not a good look. I just hope it is one of those situations where it is "ok"
