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

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. 

When you AI it, all it brings up is GL8 saying on tube that Matthes was lazy, complained about being overworked and went to sue Yamaha about being overworked, but they settled. He also says no one knows only him and was told to be quiet about it..

 

hmm....

Sensitive souls these guys. 

Gypsy was making money off these guys while not even attending races. 

I would rather listen to a more informal conversation with a media guy that the rider has some rapport with in the pits.

And can someone tell Brian, that if the press conference is so important, tell his son to put his fucking phone down. He’s just salty the pulp audience (bigger than the presser) doesn’t get to hear the dribble that comes out their mouths. 

What a bunch of morons. 

He said it was dumb to put a rider in that position, I think that’s fair to say. You’d think Hopper would have thicker skin by now.

So what was the point of Mattress yapping about GL's money?  That was pretty cringe, what a dick.  Had nothing to do with the conversation..  

agreed.  To instantly make it personal tells me this feud is nothing new.  Not a Steve stan, but that doesn't seem like something he generally does or something that I've ever really seen him do before.

Wonder if we’re going to get deegs on pulp Monday after the win? Wonder if he’s going to avoid the star Yamaha pits? Police presence is strong tonight already in the am pits. East coast is just a different vibe.

They should have a boxing ring setup at every national....Cool Hand Luke style, duke it out on Saturday afternoon. I bet there would be a lot less petty BS social media fights.

Love all these dudes but my wife is dead on, they all sound like a bunch of clucking hens. Is money tight or something? 🥴 Hopper's question and AP's answer was a much needed relief in an another typical boring QA. This is really the whirlwind caused by young buck Hopper asking what everyone wants to know? Gatekeeping? Receipts? Grim for the whole 10,000 hardcore insider fans that ... don't really care...  Lame prattling

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. 

Covid!  Steve actually believed it was real and that everybody should get the jab.... people with common sense stood up for themselves and said F that.

If this is what’s happening when we have a race this weekend I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen during the off week!!

ML just did a video the other day talking about all the silly season stuff and who goes where. Good on you ML. 

In case no one has noticed, everything is very much controlled now. F1 was very different when they had Bob Varsha,David Hobbs and Will Buxton (who now calls Indy car) They could say what they wanted and it was very entertaining. It's all very homogenized now and quite boring. 

Maybe ML could do a series like Mat Oxley does for motorsport called "how I ride" where they discuss in depth on rider technique with the different motogp riders. But it seems the riders and teams are very paranoid about everything they say and do.

not blaming one side or the other, but its notable that steve is at bitter odds with GL, Ping, and Brian, who all are outspoken critics of the views matthes happens to hold. it's a wonder he and JT$ and RV are friends.

I was just thinking this. A pulp mx/ vital mx boxing match for money all going to R2R. I know there are a few on here who say they want to beat someone up. They should try and donate the money to a charity such as that. The media guys won’t do it because it may mess up their manicure.

So funny that daddy deegz is so butt hurt over Steve calling out his drama even through Steve constantly gives DNGR credit for how fast he is and compliments him for being in great shape.

Brian Deegan is on drugs. He's ripped like a 25 year old Chili Pepper, no way that's natural at his age. He's doping for sure. But he knows the Lord, so it's all good.

Brooo no way, the Brazilian ju Gypsy would clean house……

All seriousness I’d watch matthes and the general throw down. Would enjoy seeing Brian get man handled by an out of shape Canadian liberal 😂

Brian does jiu jitsu from time to time, haiden does it occasionally.
