Shots fired by El Hombre

I swear some of you haven't actually watched the drone footage.

Anderson holds his line and Jett tries to push the issue and almost goes down, jumping almost completely sideways. Then Jett dives inside before the double Roczen crashed on, jumps out of the rut and clips Anderson. Which obviously irritated Anderson because he definitely moves over to block Jett from going around. Then gives him a decent brake check in the next corner. My humble opinion is that contact when Jett went inside is what instigated the rest of the gamesmanship by Anderson. 

After a couple more laps, looks like Anderson had enough and said ok kid, go on by...and Jett takes him high. All fair, I think. Also I doubt Anderson would have said anything after that, yeah he's been one to play dirty, but I don't remember him ever complaining about it coming back to him on the track.

In MY opinion he probably wouldn't even have had an issue with Jett throwing his arm up after he passed him. 

What happened on the track is racing, period. What happened after sure makes Jett look like an entitled punk, and even worse, an entitled punk that Honda and his camp are enabling and protecting. Not a good look, especially when you have the majority of the industry, even self-admitted Jett superfans like JT, more or less taking Andersons side.

I hope the kid can learn and recover from this, but it's going to take some genuine humility and self-awareness...and we haven't really seen that from him yet. Time will tell.

Good Morning!

We REALLY had it made back then, didn’t we? 

You think the youngsters in here that’re posting their silly fanboy-isms from mom’s computer in the basement would believe we were able to race 3 days a week back then? Actually “night racing” during the week…then we had the Dunes, Saddleback…Carlsbad as our Saturday-Sunday Choices. Golden State Series…Factory Bikes at CMC races…? They just don’t know. 

Good Times! 

Hey, did ya hear? Someone in here says MC was a pouty little bitch back in the day….?
Funny thing! I was there. Don’t remember that being the case. So, I’m thinking we need a new “standard response” to these basement dwelling bullshitters…

“STFU! You Weren’t There” 😂

Anyways…

Have an Epic Day, crank your tunes to 11 and I’ll see you at the races.

Loved Friday night racing at Indian Dunes.

Man. Now I’m excited to see how everyone else rides with Jett. Did JA open a Pandora’s box? These guys visually seeing how much jett really isn’t liked between all of them might make them ride a little rough with the golden boy. Before all this they knew if they punted golden boy they would be getting torched. Now? Hmmm

Get this…

You’re on a Moto-Forum…posting about the classic Moto era that the sport is built on; and, there are individuals that don’t like it…or you…because they just can’t help themselves. Laughing

I don't see anything wrong from either rider in that drone footage. Good racing.

Jando was riding forward, the ruts were coming together at the end of the turns, frustrating Jett. When the pass was finally able to be made, Jando looked over and relented the spot as Jett sealed the deal by taking him high.

"Yulia" from the Monday show is going, "SEE!...No character for you!" Silly

Looks like to me that Anderson relented and looked almost like he let him get underneath him...but that Jett took him high even so, and I think that pissed Jason off. That would've pissed me off too.

So you’re saying there’s no fight in JA21? He just rolled over and gave up the spot?

I doubt Jett was trying to bully JA, he was just steaming from another rain race! JA was there as the object of the frustration!

JA was like “I’m not your wife or your dog, go away!”

I also pondered this same question over the week thus far.  This season has delivered in spades already with the points mix ups and mud rounds.  It has shaken a lot of the riders up and makes it better for all of us.  I don't think it will start a trend per say but I believe that when push comes to shove other riders are going to start shoving in critical moments more IMO.

I agree. The sport needed this. Sucks that Jett was the punchline but he’s young and fast.. this will go away. I personally felt the sport was becoming too much of a political bro show. Yeah bro we are ALL cool off the track. We don’t want to race anyone dirty. How boring is that? There’s a new excitement added to this season that has nothing to do with points. A lot of mental games now and that’s awesome.

Stuff like this happens every single year but since we are getting the Hunter Brothers shoved down our throats every week everyone is making a big deal about it. There's always been drama like this every single year. There's always been mental games. Remember Coop giving Roczen the finger guns? I think everyone is just a little jaded from all the of Jett hype. This stuff happens EVERY YEAR going back decades. We're talking about a couple guys grabbing helmets. There's been literal punches thrown many times. This is literally nothing new. Chase said it best on the pulp show. You're highs cant be too high and your lows cant be too low. You have to keep it level. Jett has rode his highs very high and his lows he as absolutely emotionally lost it. Chase said he needs to be more level about things like Tomac. It makes since.

Manny 

late 1970's racing options in SoCal were unbelievable.

Wed night at Ascot

Friday night (take your pic) Indian Dunes, Lyons raceway, out in corona.

Saturday Saddleback

Sunday at every MX track

 

I have to agree that MC was never a pouty little bitch, Fuckin guy was a Rock Star.

Jett could erase a lot of the negativity attached to him by going to JA the next time they're in the same vicinity and working it out face to face. No need to post about it, the news will spread like wildfire. Just man up and go handle the shit before it gets out of hand and evolves into stupid dangerous shit on the track. Fuck social media just go handle it in person. I know, one more nobody's opinion no one wanted to hear. Laughing

Jason would shake his hand or Hi-5 him. It would be good for both of them. 

Jett would probably hear something like,”Dude, it’s all good. I was just blowing off steam because…I’ve been there and I hate it. Good luck tonight.”

I ride every weekend.  When was the last time you or Magoofan rode? Probably no time recently, hence all the daydreaming of when you were actually useful. 

Oh man....     You don't know Manny at all do you?   LMAO.

Crazy all the Jett hate on here. We all know that he was prompted by the interviewer to comment on the 72 wins record right?  What was he supposed to say? "Nah I don't think I'll ever get close, I probably won't even try"? He's a champion, so he has to have aspirations, if he didn't think he could do it, than he wouldn't even have a shot at it, but you can't say that he doesn't have a shot, at his age and current trajectory.

I recall listening to a James Stewart podcast interview many many years ago where he claimed he would beat the 72 win record as well, do we hate James to?

Pretty easy what he was supposed to say, show appropriate respect for one of the all time greats, someone who made the sport something he himself could achieve great things in, and then show at least a little humility. Supercross would not be where it is today without MC, 72 wins or not. Jett displays his dimwittedness, shallowness, and myopic view of the sport insinuating that he can achieve MC's status with win totals. All this before he won even one.

I love how the Anti-Jett fans keep putting words in his mouth to suit their narrative.

Not anti-Jett at all. Anti-disrespectful  though. He has no point in including himself in a conversation including MC's achievements, none at all. No other successful rookies, like Reed, Villo, or JS did.

Oh I know, it's not the content, it's directed at me.  I laugh it off, it means nothing.     Can you imagine how miserable and small someone has to be to carry that kind of grudge around day after day after day.       Gotta feel sorry for people like that. 

 

No one gives a fuck about your 1970's circle jerk in this thread.

Wow. Bro, do you even ride?!

Wait, I’ve got your response, already…

”F-Off, Boomer!” Laughing

Yesterday. 2 loops. It was muddy…it was awesome. 

Magoo has probably taken his Triumph ADV on gnarlier stuff than you’d believe.

Btw, don’t tell Magoo his bike weighs 500 pounds. It’ll piss him off so much that he’ll set down his beer and go weigh it.

Karl? You’re right. The kid got me. I’m gonna go sell my bikes, take up golf, start drinking Bud Light and all that. 

Damn, that kid get really got me. Laughing

Bummer the Fork chimes in to throw Jett under the buss. Do it when it happened, otherwise don't dog pile just because everyone is going at the Jett.

I don't agree.

RC spent his first year of big bike SX on the ground and for the most part, kept his mouth shut.

It wasn't until the 2nd year that the disdain started.  And most of that was on his handlers for making him enter the stadium with a crown on his head...

His rookie year was spent taking his licks and learning.  

That deal with him wearing the crown was some of the dumbest pr I've ever seen. I gotta believe RC wasn't that hip to the idea.

One would hope that Jettson would regret saying that at this point. Look I want to see the young man (he is not a kid anymore) take this sport to another new level. I think he has what it takes and maybe a little controversy early in his 450 days will serve him well in the long run. Time will tell.
