So Australians can learn about the history of their own country! Next step ... eating utensils, spoons, next forks, lastly knives. It's all in jest, Australia is where men are men, women are scarce, and sheep are nervous! Australia is awesome because Buffalo, NY needs a place to make fun of....

Booing someone for doing well is pretty fucked. Karma’s a bitch, and hate is a cancer.

"No one at Team Honda could figure out what happened. When they signed Ricky Carmichael away from Team Kawasaki they thought they were buying the ultimate package–a champion who was fast and popular. Wrong! Something happened between September 2001 and the first of the year in 2002 to turn the crowds against Ricky Carmichael. The first time it happened was at the 2001 U.S. Open in Las Vegas. It was Ricky’s first ride on a Honda and when he was announced, there was a large percentage of boos emanating from the crowd. It got worse. As soon as Ricky spoke, claiming that he hadn’t gone to Honda for the money, the crowd erupted in boos. And the booing continued unabated for the whole weekend."

Are you right there? One wanker makes a dumb comment about Americans and then all we hear about is you trying to educate us on our country lol So back on topic, yeah Jett was boo’ed it seems and I don’t think there was any way he wasn’t going down in that corner against Coop.

He would have had to completely not touch the brakes and lean into contact to have put webb down, which was clearly not what he was intending to do.

i think he expected webb to clear the corner a little faster imo

I think Webb saw him, drifted toward his line for good measure

Looks like Webb took the same line he'd been taking in previous laps...

He's learning, hopefully, that it takes more than speed to win these things sometimes.  Webb is a good teacher.Woohoo

Knuckle draggers in the stands were giving him the fingers when he went down. 

This is an opportune moment to pour water on Gypsy Bro's ridiculous idea that supercross can be as popular as Formula One. Supercross fans are from a completely different demographic.  Formula One appeals to the wealthy and elites. If you want supercross to start gaining some mainstream fans don't show the people in the stands.  They make the sport look far from glamorous.

I don't know anything about NASCAR but apart from Lewis Hamilton doing his woke grandstanding a few years ago and trying to drag everyone else into it, F1 hasn't changed that much.

When he's in the lead he looks as smooth as glass and manages it nicely. When he has to pass it's like a bull in China shop. Imagine if he started 16th like Eli 😳

Didn't Webb do literally the exact same thing to Jett in the sand a few rounds ago? Tried forcing something up the inside and ended up down himself?

Could have gone for the insurrectionists but instead you go straight for racism… cool very cool 😎

 

It’s amazing how MXGP can race all over the world (sort of) and not have racism and Uber nationalist fuckos make the sport worse (Luongo does that for them) other countries seem to actually get excited for a World Series and people from different countries competing. American race fans boo anyone from overseas that wins and decides to call a national series a world championship because umm, retaliation for a shitty little Australian start up running the ‘official’ world championship.

But while you're here, are you saying the majority of looters are white?

I’m pretty sure I saw him as far back as tenth or so.  
 

he seems to make passes quickly and in bunches and gets frustrated when it doesn’t just happen.  
 

But then last week he was behind Ken and was super casual. Even this week he wasn’t super ragged was just fast, made a silly pass attempt/pull out and went down, then said what he attempted then pulled out from doing, even though the only possible outcome from not pulling out was two seasons ended on the concrete… but like the big brain maths assessment, it was wrong but true at the same time.
 

He made the assessment. He said he made the assessment. He said why he made the assessment.

He was completely wrong both times, like a typical home schooled sports dude.

You went from a video of an Eastern BROWN snake and thought… the only comparison I can possibly make is searching ‘looters’… because yes eastern brown snakes are very well known looters, it’s actually the only reason Australias economy isn’t as big as it could be, all the looting from Eastern brown snakes.  
 

So that’s a very very very good search term you chose.
 

The analogy is strong with this one.
