For Deegan, as a rookie, obviously a top 5 would be a great showing.

But, when you're walking around press day wearing a shirt with handwritten "RIP Jett" "prone to ankle injuries" "I heart Dylan (Jett's girl)" "How to lose the girl" "something about the dog pound" ... and you're a full 2 seconds off your one-way rival, it's definitely not a good look. Especially when Jett is fresh off the injury you're poking fun at.

He's definitely successful at playing the villain! Just my $0.02

Humility is a tough life skill for some to learn. Confidence is good, arrogance is annoying.

Didn't Jett go 1-1 his rookie 450 outdoor? Anything less for Deegan with all the shit stirring is a laughable loss. He can say it's all for the clicks, but where I was raised "talk the talk, walk the walk". There's no backtracking now talking about it's my rookie year/learning year. You asked for it, time to back it up DNGR boy.

I have steaks out, getting ready to throw them on the grill before the second motos. I have zero expectations for this evening of racing. Completely calm, what I do know is for someone that has talked all the shit that Deegan has talked anything but a win is laughable....That aside a top 5 for him is VERY respectable had he kept his mouth shut and just rode his dirtbike. Unfortunately for him he didn't, so it is what it is. Win or expect the shit storm....

Only if you define failure as anything but a win and think in black and white terms. As Hunter said after losing the sx title; he feels no shame because he knows he gave it 100%.  A rookie getting a podium or top 5 is hardly considered a failure, and there is a difference between wanting your guy to win and enjoying it when someone else doesn’t win. 

The anti Deegan crowd seems to get particular joy if Deegan doesn’t win (and some would probably enjoy seeing him get injured) as if their self worth depends on him losing. 

Good luck to all the riders today. Plenty of racing over the course of the season for riders to improve.

I'd say it's next to impossible for Deegan to keep his mouth shut & just ride his dirt bike.

I was on mototalk in 05 and holy shit it wasn’t even close to this level of bitchiness!

Because back then men were men and most forum users were rational.

Well I mean he did the same think in 250s and out the gate he didnt back it up but instead of making excuses he got better. Gotta respect the game. 

In anycase should be a great race.

This is why I enjoy this place! Some make it unbearable at times, but to end on these terms is what it's all about! Hell of a ride by Deegs and Jett. Plenty of racing left for them to settle this dispute! We all win!

I liked the Twenty Three interview where he said "That's a crazy performance for a rookie if I didn't have the hype" and I'm just thinking...where'd the hype come from? I mean it's hard to root for, talk shit and act all cocky when you win, change your tune and act humble when you lose. I'd respect him more if he stood on business either way. And that's without even considering the use of God / patriotism for the same reasons
