I think you are right on, but I just cannot understand why NBC/Feld have him on the broadcast.  He clearly lacks the skill and charisma which is not a dig on RC, just don't put him on camera offering zero value.  I could even look past the lack of social skills and vocabulary challenges if he actually analyzed the race.  That's why Stew is so good IMO.  He also has his own issues, but clearly is a student of the sport and his analysis is generally spot on.  

Ricky offers "inside/outside" and "now that he got passed he can follow and learn"  and "OHHHHHH".

Monster is the series title sponsor and RC has the mystrical Green Claw pin on his jacket. Emig was a Rockstar guy..

Who's the other Australian? Will? She's English.

Jeff Emig just said on Pulp this week that Ricky is one of his best friends and there was no problem when Ricky took over. So OP is overly sensitive.

This thread is just one more example of how obsessed this forum is with broadcasters and literally makes shit up out of thin air just to criticize them..

What does he have to gain from saying anything different? Was he open and critical of anyone in a way that demonstrated his willingness to go GL-mode in speaking his mind or did he talk about the industry products and projects he's working on?

Help me understand.  You're saying that Emig is covering up for RC? Or are you saying that a random guy on the internet knows RCs intent better than the guy who was there, who was the supposed victim of RC, and who is close enough to RC to consider him best friends?

I mean both are ridiculous and prove my point 

There's nothing to understand that's not plain language. Why would he go out of his way to be critical of a popular and influential figure when he has nothing to gain from it? Intent is irrelevant. Most people can read social cues tho. If you can't, I'm sorry for you. Unless you think ricky is just poorly socialized and telegraphs unintended cues. In which case, the internet keyboard guy argument goes both ways I guess.

You won't see many in the media and most of the industry .."if any"... support DB, at least not publicly.

Almost no one wanted to comment on it and if they did it was all middle of the road b.s. and we all know why.

They don't want to go against the establishment for fear of backlash.

Today RC and Diff are in the driver's seat and fully backed by the decision makers...so they don't want to ruffle any feathers by taking DB's side.

clasic case of the worst guy won.

Further validates the DB side for me

The way Phil was laughing whilst looking at Emig at the top of the show says it all

Ralph got the axe because NBC Sports / Peacock wanted it's own guy and a not American to appeal to foreign fans. Think it's an accident we have two Australians covering the races?

I do agree with you that RC had to always say something to put down any other racer, and Emig just dealt with it. Doesn't seem to have the ego issue that RC.  

The difference is Emig is keeping his bridges, Daniel is burning them. Both have their personal reasons for their decisions and both are comfortable with them IMO.

In the 30+ years of following motocross, this bullshit about announcers is the stupidest fucking shit to happen to this sport in a long damn time.
 

I can really give two goddamn shits about any of these fuckheads. They don’t race any longer and are about as relevant to anything as my early AM shit.

RC, DB, and every other leach trying to make a living in this sport and trying to stay relevant by not racing can suck a giant dick. These guys are all cocksuckers only interested in their own goddamn self-centered personas.

Don’t all of you have nothing better to do? The fact this is a “thing” is truly pathetic.

Better product -> more viewers -> more participants -> more sponsors -> more money -> healthier sport

Daniel is far more successful than Pricky.

Daniel has had a stable long-term relationship with Maggie, and have a great kid.

They are both heavily involved in his upbringing. 

PRICKY has twins that others raised, gave half his shit to Ursula after she was chilling with riding instructor.

He is now married to a lawyer his size, I'm still waiting to find out which one is the gold digger.

I saw all the clips....FUCK THAT GUY.

He is lucky someone hasn't knocked hiss ass Tha fuq out.....

Really sucks that someone that has made millions by being good at something is cock blocking someone just trying to make a living at what he is good at.  Basically taking food of the man’s table… Be better RC.
