I wonder if anyone complaining about RC has actually really stopped to think about how cool it is that we have the GOAT, (the greatest of ALL TIME) in the booth. The dude could have sailed off into the sunset with the money he made, instead he's right here every week giving us his insight. I used to complain about him too, but when you actually think about what he did in the sport, you can forget about all his odd Rickyisms and mistakes and just appreciate the fact that he's there. 

Yep. And think about it, it's not like he needs any money and does have to do it. He clearly enjoys it and wants to be involved in the sport. And it shows with DB that he can do waaay better. I also don't mind Diffey at all. Just don't bring Todd Harris back please.

Just going to put it out there, I’m a DB super fan. The man can do no wrong. Blair’s breakdowns are the best pre-post race content online at the moment and he just hits the mark on everything else in my opinion.

Get him and weege together and you’ve got perfect moto commentary.

Exactly.

If you like Blair, you better enjoy listening while you can. I have a feeling he's not long for our janky little sport. 

 

Also, if you enjoy listening to him why aren't you subscribing to Main Event Moto on Patreon?

I promise you he’s not doing this for charity.
 

Thanks for clarifying what GOAT means. I was really confused about that. I also get confused during the races when they don’t tell us what color bikes are tied to which brands.

To be fair that’s catering to the audience. 90% of people watching anything futures related this weekend wanted to know how Deegan was doing.

I would say 90% of the people watching the race could care less about futures. What about the CC fans? Maybe they want to see a photo instead of being wallpapered by the sports future poster child.

The reality is who has a chance to grow the sport more, CC or Haiden Deegan? 

The powers that be see the number of followers he has, and they drool. If you were running the sport and not ramming Deegan down everyone's throat you would be a fool.

Deegan has a bigger following than EVERYONE in our sport. Roczen has a few more instagram followers, but I'm sure Deegan is more of a "household name". Maybe you could argue more people know Pastrana, but thats probably it. Deegan will change our sport, and it won't be by winning races.

May as well get rid of the international riders too. No Roczen, Ferrandis, Lawrence bro’s etc. Or are you okay with that?

Well, if you're that narrowminded, you'll also have to get rid of Ken Roczen, Marvin Musquin, Dylan Ferrandis, Tom Vialle, Jett Lawrence, Hunter Lawrence, Dean Wilson, Fredrik Noren, Jo Shimoda, Max Anstie, Josiah Natzke, Cole Thompson, Dominique Thury, etc.

Only fair, right?

I normally like what he does but that pre race deal he did this week was cringe worthy

I will take your word for it. I signed off with the A1 post race deal. Couldn't make it half way through.
