You just never know in motocross. Anything can happen and I have seen so many people around here not even give the notion that we may lose. It can happen!
I was pulling for canard as he was the underdog however I am also a fan of 377, and never thought he would not be able to wrap it up. The point is, ANYTHING can happen. Weather, mechanicals, crashes; riding tight.........that’s what I love about this messy sport!
Good luck to our guys, as well as anyone coming over, and I hope they all stay safe and ride to the best of their abilities..........and more importantly, that we come out on top.
Italy and France are badasses.
If we lose, I'm blaming MXR.
The most idiotic quote of James "Bubba" Stewart when he got owned by Everts...

bad karma would still be tilted against the GP guys because of a certain poster on this board who I will not name but his screen name is MXGeoff! lol!
Pit Row
The U.S. is the overwelming favorite this year, obviously. Very strong team plus the home crowd, plus track familiarity. I'd definitely be putting my money on them.
Having said that, to start gloating about Euro riders making excuses BEFORE the race is even run is not good at all. Gloating in general is not a good trait but to do it before the race is a bit unseemly. If luck turns against us the gloaters would look pretty dumb.
How about if we just say, "We've got a great team and the home track advantage so I really like our chances this year" and let the racers race.
If we win, you can gloat then.
Britain would probably have won in 1985 if Kurt Nicoll hadn't broken his leg in practice.
Anyway we whooped Team USA in 1994 at Roggenburg Switzerland.
#10 We have, and we will always have the best riders. LOL.
#9 Our best top riders are out... (Bubba Who? Villopoto? We will see next year)
#8 Ricky Carmichael got retired, he was the best.
#7 Villopoto was the best on the 250.
#6 Dungey/Canard was clearly faster than him, tough.
#5 Bad Luck.
#4 We won, who cares? American riders are of course the best. Ahahah
#3 - If Germany, France or Belgium would win - Canard and Short were riding a Honda ahahah
#2 - work in progress... -
#1 - work in progress... -
those are all very legitimate American excuses :-) We Americans will certainly make excuses if we don't win. That is human nature. If the Euros are trying to imply that they will not make excuses if they don't win they are lying to themselves and to us. The problem that I have is the underlying anti-U.S. vitriol contained in most of the euro posts. We can poke fun at each other in a good natured way without it always having to turn ugly. The American riders respect the GP riders and vice versa so why do we (armchair quarterbacks) fight with each other over it? Pointless.
