It was Southwick at its best imho. Weege may have used the phrase repeatedly but only because he was right.

Weege wasn’t right. Almost crashing is almost crashing. A small mistake is a small mistake, not “ALMOST CRASHED!!”

Apparently the racing isn't exciting enough.... the broadcast team feels they needs to create some.

Weege far exceeds the alternative and the shirt passed the muster. 😉

I didn't start this thread and I'm not complaining. I'll just say it's something I noticed a lot during sx. So and so almost crashed! Eh, not really. It's all good. Weege rules

What this thread needs is a poll to vote on whether this thread is dumbgeon worthy.  Can one do a poll on a poll?

Agreed he’s the best, but he can do wrong just like anyone. Currently, the only thing he’s doing wrong is yelling that guys are almost crashing when they aren’t. Other than that, no complaints. James has been guilty of it too, but not at the consistency of Weege. 
 

It really sets me off when someone does something super steezy, or gets way loose to make a pass and then Weege claims they almost crashed. All that does is make these guys look like they don’t know what they’re doing to the casual viewer. New people to the sport should be aware that the things they are doing are intentional and take a lot of skill to do and part of riding hard is getting loose. Broadcaster shouldn’t be making these guys out to be “almost crashing” when they just riding hard within their limits. It’s just making the riders look bad,

Deegan didn’t almost crash… Hunter did almost crash on the other hand, yet nobody even called it. Before you say they couldn’t see it, you could clearly see it in the broadcast when he did that. Nobody seemed to noticed until different angles were posted. This was the one instance of the weekend it would have been appropriate to say something.

Isn’t it funny how I posted two “almost crashes” and Weege isn’t saying that the riders are almost crashing in either? You’re dramatic as fuck.

He does say it quite often, I'll give you that, but it's all good man 🙂

Still does a solid job and his knowledge is always impressive.

I wish he'd stop saying 'clutch' though... when he isn't referring to an actual, physical clutch, of course. "Clutch move from... whoever". Ricky used to say it a lot too. It's like a shitty 'mean girls' buzz word.

About as many times as someone nearly crashes?
