I've got no problem with him doing it, and keep in mind I'm not a citizen of your country (my nephew is though-close enough!), although he might help Puerto Rico bump Canada out of the A final.....I'm all for good racing and he would certainly provide that!

Puerto Rico honestly has a legit shot at winning with that team.

James Stewart is a big upgrade from Tarah Gieger.
Stewart MX 1, Osbourne MX 3, and maybe like Barica on MX 2... I just hope no one from Puerto Rico reads this... they might try to pull it off... LOL

Well, DC already ruined everyones fun and said James isn't doing it.


Is regal still in, then?

Haven't seen any mention of France. They look pretty strong to me. Lot of assuming going on here. Puerto Rico may have to settle for second. :-)

Have some fun with this, but it's not going to happen. I mentioned it to LB last Wednesday when he heard about the deal, and Gary Bailey went to the San Manuel Yamaha rig on Saturday at Unadilla to bring it up, but James and the team are only interested in riding for Team USA.... While building a "dream team" for some other entity might sound like fun, ask LeBron and DWade and Chris Bosh how that plays in the real world.

Nobody is trashing LeBron and them for wanting to play together. It was more the way it was handled.. Hour interview to announce where he is "taking his talent." Then the dancing on stage at the introduction.. That didn't do him any favors..

Now if James does race for someone other than the U.S., and he comes out doing the sprinkler at the press conferences, then he will take the same beating as James and D Wade did..

But if PR wins... isn't that almost the same as the "B" USA team winning? I can't believe you guys would be pissed if the team...

I can't believe you guys would be pissed if the team James is on wins. It would be RD's fault... nothing more... nothing less.
X2. If they win look at the effin team! That's USA numero 2 right there, we still get bragging rights LOL! Hey the rules bogus or not say he can ride, I say go for it James. The Boss still has you covered though

You hadn't read the Bill Simons take on LeBron, eh?

So, for everyone, are people going to hate on Zach adn Kyle if either of them take points from the US?

Man, just enjoy the race however it unfolds.

Yeah, but the site managed to get itself a bunch of hits in the meantime by "reworking" the interview.

Good stuff Trip. And that doesn't surprise me about the Euro site just trying to make some shit happen.... And the different with Zach or Regal riding is they didn't start out on Team USA and then go there. They will have a lot of fans cheering for them, including me.

And I think Zach had 338 before J-Law, who was always 38 on minis, I think!

I'm as American as they come, but I'm also a race fan and I for one hope he does it.

At the end of the day a great race with a lot of drama is entertaining.

I hope team USA wins but give me an exciting race.

Does this not add drama does it not make the racing better.

IMO everyone should be for seeing as many of the worlds greatest riders on the track at the same time. If it was up to me countries would be able to submit up to 3 teams if they wanted.

lol I know it was your number first.. Jason just can't get it together long enough to get 38..

The other day, I was a 7-11 in Corona and someone asked me about you because I have a license plate with 338 on it.. haha He was joking, and it was funny.. Dude apparently knows you, and we bs'd for 5 minutes talking about you..

New breast cancer jersey for softball is goingto have 338 on it, maybe I should jump ship and say its for you?? Ha

Good Luck!!!!

Actually I don't think there is such a thing as bad PR with Bubba. The people that hate him will just continue to hate him, while the other people will see it as something interesting to watch and add more excitement to the race.

if he showed up to Race for PR, he might as well make that his last race in the US. Might as well move to Europe and race the GP's
8/20/2010 1:48pm
That would be fckin funny.. I say do it Bubba. It will make the USA win that much sweeter. Not too mention it will make going to the event that much more exciting. I wouldn't do it but I have a feeling if Bubba raced for a different country he'll have more than just a water bottle thrown at him.
