"Never in the history of our sport has a rider been so over publicized."

Are you talking about Jett or Haiden?

Edit: ... or Bradshaw?

Bradshaw? Bradshaw had hype, Pastrana had hype, a lot of riders had hype, none of them were on camera running down stairs during a 250 main. None of their dads where interviewed during a race. 

If you don't like it stop watching.

Is that what you got out of my post? 

 Did they not teach reading comprehension in your high school?

The "sport" has always hyped riders, Supercross is entertainment, run by an entertainment company,  if you don't like the way Feld is currently hying riders, stop watching.

- Jett even talking about his “haters” is revealing that the negative comments matter to him. 
- That SMX ring ceremony after Tomac beat him (albeit narrowly) in timed practice looked like a funeral. No smiles, just thinking about how the old man (Tomac) has the upper hand.

Who are all these people that hate him? Is it the biggest crowd in the pits standing in front of the HRC trailer? Or the ones buying Ogio bags with donuts painted on them?

How much donut merch do we have to buy to prove our love?

I think the boo'ing might actually be getting in his head too. He got booed last night at A1 again during opening ceremonies. 

I think it's ridiculous, I like the kid and we shouldn't be dicks to the riders. But between that and his bike not being all the way dialed. I think he's a bit jaded right now. 

A1 booed him because he talked about a perfect season.  Cal is touching about the subject & only thinks MC is and will always be the winningest rider.  Bball stars Love getting booed and yelled at . Just more people to hv a melt down when you destroy them. It makes it even more sweeter when you beat them.  What they won’t yell at you is that they fantasize about being you . Doing 321 shots in there driveway.  Too many threads on this

It comes off as arrogance whether it is meant that way or not. Secondly many of us longtime fans of the sport fear watching someone dominate like MC or RC did. Personally, i don't think he will stick around long enough to ever do it.

Funny how when they switched over to the 25’ in motocross last year they mentioned how great of a platform it was and how great the bike felt. 

Now the bike is a problem ? 
 


Is that the case or did the rest of the field just step up their game ? 

No Showa has new suspension for the 25 and its off atm.

Check how the whoops went on Sat night.

Last year they had 24 Factory Showa in the 25, now they have an update.

When did sports fan stop wanting to see their athletes aiming high? 

Mike Tyson said: “I’m not gonna lose, you hear me?” Then lost.. 

who wanted hear him say: “I might lose, we’ll see.” ?

I think Paris was where they first tried the new Showa gear? Was less than good in the whoops there too. Hunter in particular was struggling with it, as he doesn’t have the leverage Jett does.

I wonder if there’s an external difference between the 24 & 25 Showa setup? @ML512

If there's a set-up problem that they can fix the next couple of weeks, what have they been doing since October?

They got back on the bike early Dec after traveling to Oz.

I didn't quote it but someone earlier in the thread wrote 'he's distracted'. That's kinda my take. The Lawerence pit experience, Jettson Donuts, Santo Studio clothing, testing, training, press, off season races, new bike, new house, new cars, etc.

He'll probably just need to focus on the task at hand. McGrath (or maybe it was Skip Norfolk), has mentioned that the thing they thought that cost MC the perfect SX season in '96 was all the press Jeremy had to do going into that St. Louis round that he lost to Emig.

Who knows.

The only external difference I noticed on the 2025 works Showa suspension is the fork caps. An additional air spring fill point has been machined into the fork caps.

Yup.    I  lose interest when the same guy is winning every week.  Don't care who it is.    Right up there with the practiced to death repeat-o-cross tracks week after week.

All the athletes are regular human beings that need distance from their job, just like all of us.

Ken likes to surf, Eli like to hunt, Sexton golf and Anderson like to get fried etc. Having something different to focus on might be a good thing when you are in a position where a second place is considered a failure.


He would probably go under if he only had MX in his life and no ventilation from the pressure he have on his shoulders.

Nobody has ever been hyped like these two, nobody. 

Again, reading comprehension is a special gift.

I have a ton of respect for all these guys, I've been riding and racing for over 35yrs and if I'm on the bike back to back weekends I need a break. I can't imagine grinding like they do and racing something like 30 plus weekends a year. They are all animals in my opinion.

He would be smart to not get involved. Every time he does things go downhill fast for Jett. The train seems to have come off the tracks after the Deegan start/no start shitshow.

Who wants to listen to thousands of bedbugs every time you show up to race?
