TEAM EVENT...Say it one more time....TEAM EVENT....okay one more (I know some of you guys are really slow)...TEAM EVENT!!!
Got it? James wasnt' racing for an individual victory...he was racing for the TEAM! (which he won).
The chamberlain trophy goes to the top TEAM...individual results DO NOT MATTER!
James TEAM won...Everts TEAM lost. End of story.
"Now go to your room!....BITCH!"
James' TEAM won the battle and the war...they took home the trophy...
"individual results don't matter, it's a team event...Everts was riding for the team win...RC isn't that great" (because RC smoked Everts on a two stroke...but Team USA lost).
Then in 2006 they're like"
"Everts owned Stewart...Everts is the best...Stewart was trying his hardest...he wasn't just riding for the team win"....a bunch a hypocrits, ya'll are...
Right...it doesn't...
Its like an episode of Jeremy Kyle in here (English version of Jerry Springer)
With that said, JS did what he had to do, going 2-2 at Nations at his age was impressive, and team yank took home the trophy straight up.
What does make me laugh is the references to it being a team event in one breath, and Americans then reffering to '03 in the next.......when team yank went home empty handed but made themselves feel better by claiming they had the fastest ride in world......team event...?!
IMO, RC is the best rider in history, with Everts sitting a close 2nd. Everts never even looked at a SX track, but there was nothing stopping him.. RC never looked at doing GP's, but there was nothing stopping him either..
They both have they're claim to the thrown, but RC gets it in my eyes, purely because he demonstrated his skills and dominated in all versions of the sport, I doubt we'll ever see that again.

Oh, I'm sorry - have we changed the topic of conversation in here? I thought we were talking about whether James beat Stefan or Stefan beat James? You can spout that crap all day long - in fact, you can spout it all day and all night and all next day, too, and I won't lose a whisker of sleep - but what you're REALLY doing is trying to move the argument onto different and irrelevant ground .
If you don't think James was trying that day, then I've got to question the relevance of your posts to this argument. No-one's trying to suggest that USA didn't win, or Belgium should have won, or Stefan's better than James who's better than Ricky who's better than whoever. All that's going on here is this - Stefan was the better rider on the day, and James couldn't beat him. As to whether or not that matters, or is a relevant point, or makes a difference to the world at large, I have to refer you to Zolder 2003.
By the by, if I ever learn how to quote without having to fuck about copy and pasting to avoid those adverts at the bottom, I'll be a happy man...
And let me tell you what I know deep down...Three things:
-Moto is the best sport on the planet
-RC is the best ever
-And James Stewart (TEAM USA) won the MXdN 2006
You can take that to the bank.
You are the one talking about individual results at a team event and therefore you are the one talking all irrelevant n shit.
If it was an individual event James would have laid the hammer down and left Everts in the dust. You can bet your ass on that. Anyone that will deny that doesn't know a damn thing about moto.
(oh, and about quoting and the adds at the bottom..try F11...it'll move 'em right out the way.)
It would have been fuckin' awesome if Stewart reached DOWN from the TOP STEP of the podium and patted Everts on the head and said "nice try"....
LOL
Were you there that day?, thought not or you wouldn't embarass yourself making such dumb comments.
Go suck on JS sack some more!
Let's have a look at race times - race one ran for 16 laps, that's 34 minutes and 51 seconds, Everts beating Stewart by 11 seconds. Race three also ran for 16 laps, but the winner crossed the line at 34 minutes and 27 seconds, Everts beating Stewart by less than five seconds. Both of them set their fastest lap on lap 14, some way faster than their fastet laps in the first moto.
Are you seriously telling me they weren't going for it? If so, that's an insult to James, 'cause I was there and that cat was not messing around.
Cheers for the shout on F11 BTW, that's made life a whole load easier!
He DID WIN in 2006...he took home the trophy...
