I fully admit I'm biased, as RD is my all time favorite. But my money would have still been on the Diesel. Kenny will always be one of the great what if's in the sports history
BRO don't comment when you have no clue what you're talking about. Stewart raced 8 rounds in '07 MX. He didn't miss the first 5 rounds, he popped his knee in the new back section at Washougal in moto 2. You can easily argue Carmichael would've won that title had he not been retiring. With the racers that were left, Langston had some amazing rides that summer. He would wait until 10 mins to go in the motos and hammer down on that brand new 2008 YZ450F to smoke Alessi, Short, K-Dub and Ferry. It was a terrible summer and then Langston shined.
I am going to guess that reading comprehension wasn't your strong suit in whatever kind of school you went to (assuming it was some kind of "homeschool").
James and Ricky had some awesome battles for the first five races in 07 before Ricky retired and James got hurt then Langston took over the championship!

Is Tate talking about 03 when James missed the first four rounds?
Graduated from one of the best business schools in the country, so try again. Guess you don't have an actual rebuttal so you have to result to personal insults
And dude you don't even know what year you're talking about. Stewart didn't miss the first 5 rounds in 2007 MX. You have no fucking clue what you're saying so maybe keep quiet for a while
Jett seems to be headed down the same path as Herlings. The fastest guy on the track when healthy but can't stay on the bike (figuratively).
I don't think that's true at all.
Jett notably doesn't build big leads, something that was discussed ad nauseum in the undefeated outdoor season. And we've already watched him catch up to the leader and hunt directly behind without major attempt to push the issue in three races this season: Tomac at San Diego, then both Webb and Roczen at Glendale.
You don't see the dude riding over his head often, and I don't think this was a case of that, either. He put his foot in the wrong place and tweaked the shit out of it. We've all done that, hell - even while riding very casually.
I do agree, of course, that Dungey's durability and championship-management was unmatched, and Jett (and most people on a dirt bike) will probably never be that guy.
....the gargling by the unhinged isn't going to stop, injured or not.
Which one is that? Devry.. University of Phoenix? lmao. By the way, why didn't you answer the question? I would guess because if you answered correctly it would have proved my point that Jett was almost a year younger during his premier class SX rookie season than MC was during his rookie season.
All of you vitards that have so much hate in your heart for Jett is ridiculous. Jett is the best SX/MX on the planet, and has been for the last almost two years.. GET OVER IT! Go ahead and accept reality.
1. J.M. Tull School of Accounting, Terry College of Business, UGA. Now where did you go to school?
2. I literally never said McGrath was younger during his rookie season....I refuted the claim that Jett still has a year left before he's the same age MC was as a rookie. That claim is verifiably false
3. Odd that you keep trying to insult my intelligence yet you can't even remember the topic of discussion. That's what happens when you have no valid rebuttal and you lack the ability to admit you're wrong
No hate for Jett...now his unhinged fans are a little much at times....
I wasn't aware of just how many illegitimate younguns JL has until this year - it's astounding.
But hey, at least they defend their mom with the ferocity of a wolverine.
Lol there's a guy in her calling for an imaginary asterisk and calling everyone else stupid for not living in fantasy land
The internet never fails to deliver the goods!
Wow man, you have really rocketed to the top of the unhinged fan shitpile....
So nice Jett has his own super hero team to defend him....
....to the rescue!!!
That's a real stretch. Herlings was destroying himself in his 250 days
This is where some, me, see it differently. I think Jett wanted to win all three of those SX races but couldn’t catch/pass them. I think the proof is clear in Jett’s reaction’s to being beat. Even in the appearance of good humor loosing to Tomac, his riding was balls out all he had. I think the stupid and misleading comments that Jett was riding at “80”, or was it 70, percent, even in outdoors, and still beating his competition was actually believed by some. Despite fast qualifying laps being within a fraction of a percent some said this, including some fanboy broadcast analysts. SX has shown that’s wishful thinking. I think this, combined with a weakened field in MX, has actually hurt Jett on some level. Case and point…the lack of training to his competition’s level that not only left him vulnerable for wins, but may have had a hand in the ACL injury. Right now I think the “speed” difference between Jett, Chase, Eli, and even Kenny and Coop (never thought I would say that about Coop) is dependent on the day and track. Most top riders can’t even accept that and blame bikes, ect, for not winning. I’ve followed SX closely for over 30 years and imo this IS the most competitive field/season. I would say any rider going at 80% these days will get lapped. Don’t get me wrong….i put Jett in my first spot in fantasy more often then not….but less these days. All jmho
I know he does well when hes in the lead at managing it, but mistakes happen when hes trying to move through the pack.
Also, no reason to even do that jump at hangtown this year on lap 1 of moto 1. He was in the lead.
I am just thinking that history is repeating itself and to sustain Jett like speed (which is sometimes quite a bit faster) isnt possible.
Note* Herlings injured every single year type speed.

I believe you're referring to Jason "80%" Thomas, no?
There's the Power Rangers and then there's the Rump Rangers.
Different strokes for different folks.
Maybe. But neither of Jett's injuries occurred during serious over-the-head moments. The thumb was in "a minor practice crash" and this one was just a misplaced dab. Even Kenny's turn 1 dive bomb was more of a "goin' for it" moment than anything we've seen from Jett this year.
Herlings may just be kind of a brittle dude. His last big injury was also a practice dab, and prior to that, during a photo shoot. Those aren't "wants to decimate the field" situations. Between those two injuries, they found unrelated bone fragments, and additional time-off, surgery was needed. Meanwhile, we see Gajser pop up from insane yard-sales semi-annually.
Mmmaaayyyybbeeee….but he wasn’t the only one.
I don't get some of the "logic" here. That wasn't some yard sale like Roczen's big crash, he caught a foot.
Don't forget this gem.

Ya'll are hell bent on taking this thread right to the Dumgeon. lol
This thread has confirmed that. 😊
I hate it for him, but yes the was having a hard time winning first 4 rounds.
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock n roll
This is an observation:
Jett is the only guy that dabbed his foot in that spot. Watch the video, no other rider even thought about putting his foot/leg out. So did Jett’s bike let him down?
How close was he to the nearest Pro Circuit rider?
😂😂😂
