I don't think the rule against posting Cooksey videos is still in place, right? 

He has some interesting takes. I think he left a few people off, though. 

10. Alpine Stars 
9. Rich Taylor 
8. Mike Pelliter 
7. Tim Carter 
6. Ricky Carmichael 
5. Steve Matthes - "Steve Mattress" 
4. The Feld Family 
3. Rob Dingman 
2. Davey Coombs 
1. Carrie Coombs

For him to put matthes on here is comical. Steve has given almost a million dollars to privateers with the pulp race, sponsers guys when they need money, and he literally calls feld and mx sports out all the time.

The raffle/sponsors pay the purse not Steve’s savings account. Great on him for hosting it and making it happen he deserves credit for that.

The helmet sticker deal he does with the privateers comes directly from his pockets, as he has stated before.

I don’t know ask the handful of people who have the resources/connections and choose not to? I said give him credit but cleared up a misconception that it was privately funded by he himself.


Nice edit man, I saw what you typed before.

Not to mention that he says that Steve has been fired from everywhere, but it’s actually Kooksey that’s been booted from every job he’s ever had. 

Kooksey has a weird psychological issue. It seems to boil down to him thinking that he was going to take the moto-journo world by storm and him being shown the door everywhere. He truly believes that he is the moto messiah that should be running the entire sport of MX/SX, and since he can’t be that he just wants to tear everything down. He’s got an interesting mix of these personality disorders:  

Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) — Vulnerable Type
Core features: strong need to be admired or seen as capable, paired with insecurity when not in control.

Typical behaviors: resenting superiors, demeaning others to feel powerful, trying to “run things from the sidelines.”

Underlying motive: protecting self-esteem by asserting dominance or superiority, even indirectly.

Vulnerable narcissism especially fits when the person feels unrecognized or slighted and compensates with sabotage or chronic negativity.

Paranoid Personality Traits
Core features: distrust of leadership or motives of others.

Typical behaviors: believing the organization is unfair or plotting against them, reacting defensively, trying to “expose” or undermine leaders.

Underlying motive: maintaining a sense of control and safety by challenging perceived threats.

Oppositional or Defiant Personality Features (esp. in workplace contexts)
Core features: habitual opposition to rules or expectations, blaming others, refusing cooperation.

Typical behaviors: openly or covertly defying authority, trying to rally others to resist leadership decisions.

Totally normal thing that any legit sports journalist would do 🥴

100% not watching, but I can tell you for sure that this guy wants to divide the fans just like politicians and news media want to keep us divided for the own benefit. The guy is an absolute idiot, like shockingly moronic.

You’re saying I care about his list because I was first to see the thread, opened it and typed two words?

Typical Cooksey fan “logic”.

Yep changed it from if it’s so easy why isn’t everyone doing it to what is above. Same point, no one else is doing what he does for the privateers.
