What did you want them to say?  Matthes said he asked Blair to call and no response.  They are both friends with both sides and were not there for these events so they are leaving it at that. 

I do wish that a media outlet would publicly ask Leigh and RC for an interview on the subject, but we all know that's not going to happen. ML??

My opinion is RC has massive small man syndrome and his narcissistic behaviors don't allow him to accept anything other than being told how great he is.  I cannot understand how he is still employed since he is horrendous at his job, and was likely threatened by DB even though they were doing different jobs.  I lean towards DB telling the story as it happened, but welcome to a job.  Whether corporate or working for a small business, you sometimes have to adjust and "tow the line".

What the fuck is the point of being a journalist for a sport if you’re gonna make friends with everyone then not be able to tell the truth on anything because your homies. 

Unless we are all willing to just admit he’s not a journalist anymore and moto really doesn’t have any

Come on, there's a HUGE difference. Journalists in standard news media aren't paid or sponsored by the companies and people they're covering like they are in MX. Right?

No dude, MX Journalism is the pinnacle of journalism, it's studied in multiple universities around the world.

Do not ever forget one of the best journalism documents ever written, the "This Week in your Sport" When the Deegan-Yamaha claim happened at Lorettas, Brought to you by Yamaha, Revs your heart.

At this point this is like a murderer being caught on camera with face and prints but pleading not guilty in court. 

RC can say whatever he wants. The proof is out there of him being an absolute prick.

Is there any truth to the rumor that both RC and Leigh Diffeys names were in the Epstein flight logs?

You should know by now that the only time Steve will have a hard opinion about something is when he got nothing to lose.

Look at how he handled the Yamaha/Deegan claim gate thing, he wanted nothing to do with that one since he is ”blue crue”.

And sure as hell, Both JT and Steve knows all the details in this one but of course JT don’t want to say anything about his employer and Steve don’t want to burn any bridges going on RDL and running his pulp privateer race again.


But if the moto media don’t want to talk about it and report it in a real way, don’t do it at all. If circulating around the subject for 15 minutes saying ”I don’t know man” and ”there is always two sides to the story” is the best they can do, just let it be then…


 

You know this site is part of moto media......is Darkside, ML, and/or Lewis providing anything?  Nope.  Crickets.  

Now, if they reached out to the other side for comments and got nothing, than so be it, but they should report that here if so.

Just listened to Matthes's take on his Monday night show. He boils it down to "they didn't get along"? What a doosh. No Steve DB was freaking railroaded by insecure power hungry unprofessional scum bags. There now you get it.

I swear Steve and Jt basically dances around the story never mentioning the reality of the facts  being how RC bullied him, Lee was a baby, and the "Decider" slammed him into submission.

How about say something genuine like, " I don't know man, I like both DB and RC but the facts seem to point to RC disrespecting the nicest guy ever in DB". Steve built his empire on claiming to ",say it like it is"? But now only when it benefits him. 

JT and Matthes threw out tons of false scenarios and platitudes in order to confuse the entire issue. 

How about push RC to own what he did and said. 

Just because DB didn't call Steve back does justify anything. And for Steve to say several times, " Well DB never called me back is a cop out on Steve- great friend he is.

ML has stated that he is friends with JB and knows more than what he want to say.

And that is the problem with this small sport that they are all friends and can’t report on things without burning bridges. 

Think about how much the ”journalists” knows that they always has to wait for a certain date before they can report when riders are gonna change teams etc.

Lol @ "beat a dead horse" when the video literally dropped on Monday.

Guess you can't call someone out for shitty behavior without wanting to boycott everything they touch. Seems like a dumb hill to die on

Like I think Kanye West is a POS and won't go to his concerts, but 808s & Heartbreak is still a jam

I never would've guessed I'd see this comparison on Vital but it's spot on. I guess we're all just getting old. Grinning

Oooof, he could might possibly apologize for one vid being a dick and say he was having a bad day, but damn. Multiple videos and him obviously not giving a fk that its being recorded. 

Its really to the point of not being recoverable.

Some random thoughts... so DB went on coach robs show to talk about his path. Didn't get into drama or details. Really good show btw. I think he's done talking about it and doesn't want to engage with Matthes on it at all. yea his video was emotional but I don't think he's as bitter as ppl may make him out to be (watch coach robs vid). So, kudos to him for not feeding the matthes media machine; and choosing how to say his piece and move on.

Weeges take on today's moto60 show was pretty fair. He rightfully asserts he wouldn't let this ordeal sway his own path but gives DB a lot of credit as well. Matthes is a little more critical and is probably offended Blair didn't confide more in him, who knows. I smell a potential for a bit of a GL/Ping rift there.

He did marry a lawyer. Their idea of foreplay is probably writing a cease and desist letter together.

Isnt any coming back from this. Very much tarnished his epic race career.

From all reports his mom treated him like a step child. Sure the results were impressive but he probably still has issues from his childhood

Wow.... I can see with these clips why DB would be irked. He has a right to be. There is nothing sarcastic in RC's voice - in that and the other video where he makes a run at DB. 

I hope he gets dropped by sponsors over this behavior. This is not brand ambassador behavior. It's brand destroying behavior.

The entertainment/TV business is a dirty corrupt business ruled by the dark side.  Blair is an innocent well meaning  guy thrown in with the sharks.  They chewed him up spat him out to the curb.  Just like Emig, Bailey, Langston.  He’s better off now just doesn’t realize it yet.

Agreed. Just toxic behaviour displayed. He has never matured/developed beyond a low level emotionally. Very sad actually.

What the fuck is the point of being a journalist for a sport if you’re gonna make friends with everyone then not be able to tell the truth on anything because your homies. 

Unless we are all willing to just admit he’s not a journalist anymore and moto really doesn’t have any

You're correct. It has media people but not journalists. Journalists are required to be objective and to use multiple sources for their stories. In this day and age that is increasingly not the case due to the destruction of the news industry by the internet. It is, however, still the ideal. The moto 'media' is made up of ex-industry, or industry connected, amateur enthusiasts.
