Is anyone else mind blown?

 "AC CRYING FOR 3rd with 8 champs out reminds me of alessi crying for a heat race win. Not worth tears but good job."

-john kuzo

even if it is true, hating on someone having a good day is sad. 

i have had the pleasure of meeting john and his wife Ali seemed like good people and shit i buy the goggles lol  but what the the hell is this ?

seems like childs play,  you can never judge another person until you have walked in there shoes, which makes me think there has to be more to this. maybe ac passed on wearing the product? 

But in the end i think it was a bad tweet to post about  i guess you could say his pier in the industry, i guess im just surprised a guy representing a large company in this specific industry would do something like that.

Kuzo is a clown for putting that out as a tweet.  Some things are better left in your head and not in public.

Yeah also not a big 9 fan but I couldnt imagine dogging someone like that. Thats the biggest victory he's had in a while and to attack it is very poor taste.

It’s not his first douche bag tweet, and it won’t be his last

AC was crying for a lot more than third place.  The guy has had to come back from injury after injury, and has put everything he's got into motocross.  Kuzo must not understand that.

Alessi was having a mental breakdown AC9 was just stoked.

Let's be real: if AC was a 100% endorser, he'd be giving him the highest praise on an emotional moment.

I 100% agree. (Pun intended.)

 

EDIT: Except I AM an AC9 fan.

Kuzo’s not a bad guy; but, he absolutely fails to realize the outright defeatist-insanity that’s been thrown at Adam…and Adam takes it head on and succeeds anyway. 

Kuzo should have known better. This is….just a “posting” error in my eyes. We’ve all done it.

That’s a tweet (like many work emails and VitalMx responses for me) that you write, walk away for 10 mins and then come back and delete it…

I would agree AC’s 3rd place was primarily due to injured riders, BUT the fact he is still standing and racing and finishing the season is a major accomplishment and healthy (except the part last week when they discussed him seeking out stem cell therapy- this tells me something is very much wrong still)..

Looks like he’s since deleted the tweet and apologized to Adam for saying it. Good on him for doing the right thing, but you can’t put the toothpaste back in the tube. Still a dick move and will be remembered as such. 
 

His tweet was at least a cautionary tale for everyone else. Saturday night, drinking a few beers and watching supercross is generally a good time. But when the last shred of intrigue left in the series disintegrates in an instant, that mood can go dark. Best not to be on social media in cases like that…

 

Come to vital instead!

Perhaps Kuzo has never put 100% effort into anything.

AC's career has been massively frustrating, he has the talent to be on the podium every round, but constant injuries have set him back, obviously he is nowhere near 100% and it looks as if he is riding in pain.

I had asked who he was in the AC is Legend post and posted the screenshot of the tweet. Yes he deleted the tweet after getting a lot of heat, not sure if that really counts for taking ownership or not 🤷‍♂️ But guess good that he apologized D4AB5A54-0681-45AB-AC41-8190932C0650.jpeg?VersionId=70

I remember hearing something about his hand or arm going numb.  Not sure if there is other stuff also going on. But he was saying he would rather be out racing in the back of the pack, than sitting on the couch at home. For a rider who has been injury prone, he has managed to stay in the series when so many others have gone out injured .

What a loser.

Someone already pointed it out but we all know that if AC was wearing 100% that Kuzo woulda been licking his balls all the way to the bank.....Kuzo.....just another example of an industry shill that has absolutely no social skills or even real skills that would get him anywhere in the real world but he thinks he's cool cause he has a little "power" in this industry.

100% has got their last dollar from me, lots of quality goggles out there and I don't want my money to go to a dipshit like this Kuzo fuck.

Hey Kuzo, we all know you insecure industry folk read this board....grow up homie, you ain't nearly as cool or important as you think you are.

That's a pretty decent response to make. He didn't flee, showed respect, and didn't make excuses.

John is a good dude who has been around the industry since birth.  It was a regrettable tweet that he absolutely owned and apologized for.  Props to him.

If it was genuine, I'd agree.

But that's a blatant BS apology after realizing that nobody laughed.

You can't 180 *that* hard from such a shitty comment made less than a week ago.

Still shocked a dude tied in that well to the industry would tweet something as douchey as that.

With that being said, he was man enough to publicly apologize. We’ve all said things we shouldn’t have, he was just stupid enough to put it on the internet.
