Bashing someone who has a different and truthful angle on moto topics is pretty lame. Cooksey is keeping things real and some can't seem to handle that which is just hilarious. The abuse and slander & baseless fake claims will only embolden him and i hope his followers and popularity greatly prospers for it. The new raw breed of tubers like him & hopper don't follow any script and that is really what the public want unless you are someone else's little bitch.

 

Ok cooksey

The cOnTeNt is absolute garbage tier

His IG videos are like 20% truth when he makes headlines or analyses someone like Jett.

Dude was spot on with AC’s wrist and the cover up. Pulp trying to bash Cooksey with a very awkward interview with AC was classic regime media

Holy shit, amateur hour. That's what's I'm talking about. No professionalism or production to his video. Just sets up a camera in public where people are going to cross in front of it. He's awkward as fuck on camera and doesn't know what to do with his hands either

Guy has unpopular takes just to rile people up. Probably doesn't even believe most of the crap he spews.

He's everything that is wrong with current mainstream news media, brought to moto.

You do realise that vital, pulp, racerx

, swapmoto, moto action etc are the MSM of the moto industry right? They have the same incentives as MSM has to be "honest" to us fans/viewers.

I watch the odd vid of his and don't mind them but the fact that there is so much hate towards cooksey, hopper, ping etc on here makes me think they might be onto something?

hopper is a good dude. wife is thin. and hot. he's financially literate and can ride. anybody hating on hopper needs to take a look in the mirror. i hate people that hate on other people simply for not taking themselves too seriously. 

Hopper comes across as a dude that wasn't fast enough to make it and resents the sport because of it.

I’ll watch his videos from time to time, he’s grown on me a little..The guy loves moto so I can’t hate on him like some of you drama queens in here.

Sometimes he has a good take on things, sometimes not. Seem when he is wrong he owns up to it..
Whatever, if someone is butt hurt over what he has to say then don’t watch him..

 

This sums it up for me.  I find that when he says something wrong, it's amplified by those that dislike him and if he says something right, it's downplayed or passed off as luck.  At the end of the day, if you don't like him, don't watch him. I watch him from time to time in part because of an annoyance with the "mainstream" moto media. RacerX's softball coverage of the Star bike claim incident is an example.

I don't care for his personality or the way he talks to people. But I found it very interesting that DB125 did not deny the accusation that he struggled with RC in the booth. After all DB125 coulda said, "Absolutely false - No way". But he simply remained silent.

I really don't know anything about Hopper or the others. As for Cooksey, I don't understand the people saying most of his stuff is garbage but every once in a while he's right about something so they keep following. Really? I can't stand watching unsubstantiated bullshit regardless of the subject matter.

Also for those saying he just a harmless dumb ass, the insinuation he made (and repeated) about a certain former champ's recent death at a time when friends and former acquaintances were still looking for answers was disgusting human behavior. I hate that I have to share oxygen with classless trash like him.

You hit the nail on the head, all these moto media entities are beholden to the Coombs family. The Coombs family controls probably 99% of all things MX. Promoter, Media, Track owners, Loretta Lynn’s. The Rupert Murdoch family of MX if you will.

Interesting right? Bad mouth and pile up on a small time independent moto guy all you want but as soon as you go "political" you're out? Not that I care to bring those politics into moto but every industry in itself is political. Political things will happen and corrupt opinions etc

Cooksey is an idiot but I’m glad he’s around. At least he will try to hold DC’s feet to the fire. You are not going to get the from pulp etc.

I enjoy Deegan saying “F the government and don’t put your kids in public schools”

 

sometimes men with a platform need to drop their balls and speak the truth.  Everything is political at the end of the day, even motocross.

Hopper comes across as a dude that wasn't fast enough to make it and resents the sport because of it.

He doesn't hide his resentment at all.  Part of that is his platform.  The goal is to help make the sport better for future riders so they don't have to go through the same shit as he did.  Can't fault him for his efforts or telling his story, even though sometimes it's a bit negative.  He does give some hard truth from a privateers perspective.
