What’s the story behind the Pulp/GL $5K thing?  I don’t have twitster so can’t really see more than those 2 pictures.

What's the lie Matthes is referring to? He doesnt go to the press conferences and when he has gone a few years ago he just makes a mockery of the whole thing by calling himself different names amd not taking it seriously

I think Johnny gave a valid question, and Steve had a valid opinion about it

As for Gypsy’s comment..isn’t that the same thing Steve used to say about him not attending the races? 😂

I think it’s referencing the rumor that Steve Matthes sued Yamaha at one point. I’ve yet to ever see any legal documents or anything to prove it.

I like all three of the mentioned guys for their own takes - all very different.

'Drama' amongst moto journalists is pretty pathetic.

Pretty sure you’re right. I believe Steve talked about it at one point and did sue someone but not Yamaha directly. 

I think this is comical. Wonder if it’s actual beef or fabricated shit like the 250 class. Either way I read it.

I probably wouldn’t go to the press conference either, it’s a joke. Gypsy just asks other riders questions about Haiden non-stop when he’s there. There’s only one or two journalists there that ask good, interesting questions.

Brian wants to be a victim so badly. “Intimidate riders that don’t share his belief” Ok buddy.

I was wondering why I didn’t see that and then I realized Brian Deegan has me blocked 🤣. I’ve never commented on any of the Deegan’s posts in my life.

Such an ignorant comment from Deegan. Racing dirt bikes is his job, it's not personal time, and the only reason he gets paid so well to do it is because people care about it.

“Makes a living off of the riders, not the other way around”

Steve’s successfully used his platform to put almost a million dollars back into the pockets of privateers with his LCQ challenge.

What was the question that started all this? 

Kind of a shame reading through the comments. I remember Steve, Grant, and Ping used to be pretty good friends. Wonder what drove them apart.

I believe it was a question directed to AP about having a new team mate next year

I need more context. Did GL get really personal with Steve for him to come back at him saying hes broke? Fucked up all the way around

I presume it comes form Langston saying somewhere that Steve sued Yamaha  over employment issues  ,  which doesn’t really make much sense as Yamaha is a big PulpMX sponsor now

I’m not a huge Matthes fan and I like Gypsy, but that post seemed unnecessary. Matthes really wasn’t hard on hopper at all, unless there was more said than what was on pulp. He just said he thought that you shouldn’t put riders in a spot where they could say something that could get them in trouble. I think he even prefaced it with he liked hopper. 

There are obviously deeper issues with GL and Matthes so I don’t think this had anything to do with their beef.
