It may work for the MXdN but this is American SX.

Time to get Sean Strickland up in the booth with Ricky.

I don't get you guys. Leigh sounds perfectly fine to me (Weege is better, but no complaints about Leigh from me) and Will doesn't bother me at all. I've heard better from some of the RDL guests theyve had, but I have no real opinion on her. They both can at least form coherent sentences on the broadcast.

Nope.  This is America.  The great melting pot.  A nation of mutts.  I enjoy the shit out of the different accents and perspectives... especially the riders.

Heck, I'll even go so far as to say that the sport wouldn't be the same without the diversity.

The glass ain't half full or empty...it's overflowing.Woohoo

The accent doesn't bother me, it's the yelling. Weege gets excited, too but he doesn't come across as harshly to me.

This is american sx until someone started a world championship in sx, then the american national series with riders from all over the world became a world series according to some people in here.
 

If it’s gonna be a world series, world championship or what ever the people claimed it to be, then the australian accent of some of the promoters can’t be a big deal right?

You f***ing losers need to go outside and touch some grass, breathe some fresh air and look at the sky. 

Every week it's the same shit with you guys. Do you even watch the races? Nobody wants to hear your shit, go yell at your wives or something.

You want him out of the booth, not because you think he’s bad at his job, but because where he’s from?  I don’t know if it’s better that people like you are overt, so we know who you are…. or if it’s worse, that people like you are comfortable saying your racist thoughts out, loud.

Ironically though, claiming britons are a discrete race, will get you branded as a racist by the machine. 

I disagree with OP, but I think there's the sense that producers think American English isn't sophisticated or quaint enough to be interesting.

I, for one, would pay $$$ to have Paul malin do solo commentary for sx

I’d rather have Weege in the booth because he’s better than anyone else.  I wouldn’t care if he was born in a spider hole in Iraq.

I agree with the OP, I want the foreigners out. I watch the races most of the time with my family. they cannot stand will, can’t even understand what she’s saying. But I don’t even really pay attention to the announcing, I’m more focused on the rider position and the camera work, making sure we catch the right battles and if not than I’m pissed
