Sorry for cussing but i’m so tired of being put to sleep by jett, i wish hunter would challenge him more. Stop telling us stuff we already know. We aren’t 3.

We all want more riders to challenge him, no question about it.. But the fact is that other than Chase nobody has the speed to actually challenge him and Chase doesn't have the same mental strength (yet, hopefully). Unless he gets injured every season will likely look the same and we have to get used to it.

Eli made a pretty good charge, but they didn't show any of it

That’s Doc G.

Rant: Use the damn split screens, show battles and show jett rolling around in the smaller screen. I completely understand showing jett the last two laps. But now half of the race has been jett and storylines about him. We get that he’s great, but it’s not his most best achievement or championship. I get he came in from a torn acl but everyone has dealt with something. They are acting like it’s his first ever title in 250s. I’m not saying they can’t celebrate, they absolutely can, but showing him for 15 minutes and talking about him for 15 minutes and interviewing people we’ve heard from before. Rant over.

bro calm down he literally won the championship this moto. Of course the spotlight is on him.

Hunter has trained with him more than anyone ever probably, he’s tried but he hasn’t actually done something yet.

Well the only reason Hunter is the 2nd best guy right now is because he trains with Jett, but Jett is younger and probably more talented, he will always have Hunter covered for championships, that's just how it is. I doubt Hunter would even be close to this level if he didn't train and ride with Jett every day, a big team and family effort after all.

I know an acl is a bad injury, but it’s not like the worst of the worst injuries with the technology we have. Stop acting like this title is earth shattering, it’s his second title after a good amount of adversity.

Everyone is acting like it’s earth shattering though. It’s his second title after a good amount of adversity. My point is just stop over exaggerating everything about jett.

Normally I agree with you but let me tell you ACL recovery is brutal.

Really? Doc G has used some magic to look much younger and lose a lot of wight compared to youtube videos from 6years ago... but I don't know, maybe it's the same guy? ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFmOtdwYdbo )

I think Hunter is tired of hearing the question, "how does it feel to be 2nd?"

No one is safe from Ozempic face. And I agree, it does look like he got veneers. The Steve-O comparison is spot on Grinning

ET looking good today. We need him for the MXON riding like this. Hopefully Chase heals up and is ready.

Did you look at live timing? there was zero battles in top 10, you could watch a random person ride around or you could watch the fastest guy in world rn about to win the championship

Closer to the end there wasn’t, but at one point there was.

Also, i wasn’t a fan of how they over exaggerated it. I understand that an acl is tough to come back from, but jett’s and alien. And they made it seem this is his first ever title.

Overall, congrats to jett, you earned it, i wish he was challenged more often but that just shows how damn good he is. Good to see eli up there and still getting podiums at 32. Cool to see hunter up there. Jo absolutely dominated, haidens interviews are boring, hope he’s not being a robot like most of everyone else. Sucks that Haarup broke his collarbone, I thought he’d be on the podium in a moto a few times.(I completely forgot who got 3rd) I hope Schwartz and chambers aren’t hurt too much. Also, bring back and keep Hailey Shanley.

Cannon looked to be on the gas quite a bit while off the track while catching Turner 🤔

I might be cynical but don’t think he wants to share the spotlight, we will see how he goes next week

Yes, as someone that had 3 ACL surgeries and now a TKA, everything with a knee is brutal.  Jett came back fast and made it work.  I didn’t think he could/would make Pala.

It sucks Eli isn’t gelling with this YZ this year (the bike looks like crap out there)…get him comfy on the KTM and he’ll be running with/beating Jett and Chase….he needs to retire a champion…

Weege said in the post race show that he pulled out. He didn't want to risk an injury.

A lot of ruts and his ankle is still bothering him.
