Genuine question, does anyone actually not like him because he is a foreigner? It makes zero difference whatsoever to me personally where the guy winning is from. Would I like better racing overall and have less of Jett dominating? Of course I would, but it's not his fault he is as dominant as he is, that is the objective as a professional athlete. I am always just confused on why Jett is so caught up on the American's not liking him because he is winning in 'their' series, maybe that is a thing I just don't see it.

I would agree with this but it definitely seems it all goes out the window if they do something seen as wrong.. Like Ferrandis' move on Craig or when Marv took Tomac out for a win.. It seems the booing and 'hate' is more than a 'local' would receive..

In my opinion.. 

You sure about that? Look at Friese😂

I think its all a beat up after the Ausx re Deegan bullshit.

Title24 interviewed Jett while he was in Aus and he was happy go lucky like most 21 yr olds.

The negative press is mostly Ausx.

I think Jett is a freak and will be amazing for years to come.

Just get a PR person to run his IG and concentrate on racing and having fun ie what DV12 said.

If these guys are going to use social media then negative people and comments will come with it. The simple solution is to stop reading the comments. Also, any “hate” toward Jett is more than likely pointed toward his fanboys, not him.

I know some on here think I'm a Jett hater, I'm truly not. What he does on the bike at his age is definitely amazing to see. The "hater" part I bitch about all the time is more about how the broadcast team over publicizes EVERYTHING the kid does. And they act like he's the first one to ever do everything. JT needs to stop the gargling, its out of control. When a 250 Main or moto is going on...Broadcast team: "Can we please show a window in window shot of the currently LIVE moto but also show Jett just sitting at the Honda semi picking his nose while watching the same LIVE moto? Okay great, now do that 4 times on every broadcast weekend."

Well he is the first to ever go 22-0 his rookie year which is an amazing feat.  Sponsors entire objective is to publicize champions especially if what they do is spectacular, which thus far his career has been.  Do you want corporations running the sport to humble themselves and stop publicizing the very thing they want to capitalize on? 

To the people telling him to “just ignore it and get over it”…he’s getting booed by knuckle draggers in every stadium for who even knows what reason.  He’s 21 years old living in a foreign country working his ass off.  I’ll bet at 21 if you went to work and got booed by a large majority of people there you’d be stressed out too.

We usually disagree and I'm actually a fan of Jett. But we're on the same page here. People dislike Jett because he's a foreigner? Deegz has plenty of people that don't like him and he's American.

Speak for yourself I don’t believe people hate Jett because he’s a foreigner, if that’s your theory why do most love KR. If Jett’s panties are bunched up and the negative talk bugs him, he should stay off his SM. Either case he’s turning into a crybaby. 

I don't believe people hate Jett because he's a foreigner either. Thus my use of a question mark after that statement

Just cause he maybe made $20m doesn’t mean he has $20m. Go listen to RV talk about it. Most of it gets spent every year reinvesting into yourself to get better and stay on top.

He gets asked 500 questions by the media and they cherry pick 1 answer they can twist into arrogance. This is lapped up by fuckwits looking for a reason to shit on him. Fact is he doesn’t care that you sister fuckers are crying about him while he is out making millions, having fun and doing what we all do for fun in our spare time. He will win a lot, and your whining will make no difference 😝


Happy new year motherfuckers!

I thought I'd be raking it in after graduating college. Nope. Life and taxes eats most of it up.

At the end of the day...when the SX starts next weekend, aside from Tomac and Jett in the 450's, Deegan is going to have 90% of the eyballs on him. People want to see this kid ride. And like I said before, he does not disappoint.

One of the first things out of Jett's mouth was a comment about haters. If it isn't in his head, then he's a helluva actor imho. I have no doubt he will still ride like himself this season but I kinda feel sorry for him if he can't learn to let this stuff slide off his back. Look in the mirror dude! You have the world by the short curly's!

Jett has made himself the victim.

I see a lot of people making statements like this but a lot of them do not understand what it's like to make big money and how difficult it is to hold onto it and make it last.  If he grossed 20m you pretty much cut that in half and you are left with 10m in your pocket.  You buy a couple houses, nice cars, clothes, women's shoes and handbags, and you are left with 5m.  Then you get a divorce and she takes half and one of the houses, so now you are left with 2.5m and paying alimony and possibly child support.  

Pretty soon, you are in your 40's and 50's and only have a nice house to show for the fortune you made.  And then you soon realize you don't have money to pay the property taxes on it for too many more years, and now you are out trying to figure out how to make more money to keep your house...

I can't tell you how many times I've seen this happen.  A couple of them are former professional riders.   If you don't know how to properly invest your milions when you make it, it will be gone in 20yrs.  Proper money management is not usually a trait of kids who grow up racing dirt bikes.

Nor is it a trait of tons of celebrities who make a lot more than 20m.  Whitney Houston lost 250 million, MC hammer over 70 million.  Here's a list of many more:

Only after getting all pissy at a racer not letting him by without fighting for position

When did Deegan whine about haters? Hell, I didn't know there even were any Deegan haters. He has the RC attitude and every bit as much skill IMHO...I don't want to just race and beat you, I want to lap you.

Deegan is the biggest whiner about haters. He's brought it up countless times in his interviews. 

Edit: Typo

Yea deegan talks about the haters 24/7. This is the first time jett is ever bringing it up because hes a down to earth kid who isnt going for the deegan us vs them mentality and just wants to win races and not be involved in drama. Jetts bringing it up cuz hes genuinely confused about why so many ppl hate him, whereas deegan brings it up all the time cuz his dad taught him its rad to say f the haterz. The deegans want drama and go out of their way to create more, jett wants whatever drama there is around him to go away.

Not reading the whole thread...but I have no doubt the usual sack lappers are out in force.

 

I don't hate Jett.......but I'm sick of Jett, mostly because of the constant media BS and especially the sack lapper fans.

However, the kid crying about haters is endemic of this safe-space generation.     Boohoo.....thumbs downs are emotionally scarring me.

This, this right here is the bullshit that is wrong with society these days! 

Just jumping in without putting in the slightest of effort to fuel a bullshit narrative..

'The kid' made an off hand remark/joke people read too much into it and made claims of it getting to him then sheep like you come in and feed on it..

Man, you made a stupid statement and instead of owning it as being dumb, you doubled and tripled down on it. It's almost impressive...

This whole thread is laughable, but also a sad demonstration of today’s mentality. 

The interview is there for all to see for what it is; a wry comment not to be taken seriously. Maybe it’s lost in translation because of the typical dry Aussie sense of humour, but Diffey’s lead in even states it’s humour, and Jett makes a sideways eye movement and slight smirk as he says it.

Yet here we are with everyone taking it seriously and denigrating the kid for something said in jest. 
Ffs what a sad mob, happy new year!

Good.

If they were really tough they'd repeat over and over that downvotes don't matter to them while mentioning the downvotes and wearing them like some kind of badge but also making sure everyone knows that they don't mean anything to them but also screen grabbing the number of downvotes that don't mean anything to them cause they're from the hardcore generation that don't care about that stuff
