Live by the sword, die by the sword. All this heat is warranted when you pull a believe the hype 2.0. Also, the dude should try to actually get a gf before picking on other peoples gf’s. Incel behavior. 

It’s why he’s so appealing to the broccoli head generation.

For any other rookie I would say: Great debut on the 450. But when you are wearing shirts like this, you should own it and destroy Jett and all others.

PS: His digs to Jett his girlfriend are below the belt, I mean what would they think when someone would use one of the leaked nudes of Hailey to screw with Haiden?

I guess no perfect 22-0 rookie season?

The numbers don't lie, Jett went 1-1 to a 22-0 perfect season, Deegan did well considering his skill level, I would ga as far as to say he out performed better on paper then he really was.

Mid pack starts aren't going to cut it for HD or Jett

Not a fan of the guy, seems like a douche bag. He rode clean, rode forward, had a good day. He’ll be fine. Hell, he might even learn to fit in and compete with respect, and drop all the theatrical shit talking. (might)

I think he did well. Had he got better starts , I think he may have made the podium. Seemed like he tired in both motos. Definitely has room for improvement. I think he’ll be in the mix up front all year and podium several times .

JCoop came from way back to 6th in the second moto. Meanwhile everyone knew when Deegan came from way back to 5th in the first moto. That’s exactly what I’m talking about.

He did pretty damn well. Too bad he has to come in with the crazy hype and shit talking. "Schtick" or not the shirt is fucking embarrassing.

The most notable thing to me is fitness. He talks it up. His fan base talks it up like no one is going to hang with him at the end of motos... The problem with all that is that he probably spent twice the energy of Jett just trying to stay within 5 seconds of him. Bouncing off the rev limiter and burying the bike into every corner isn't going to cut it.

I think he'll figure it out eventually and he'll have a couple notable rides this year. I'm calling his first moto win at Washougal.

Jett champ, followed by Hunter and Prado.

He did fine, but if you turn up wearing that shirt and talking all that shit, only to have a very obviously injured Jet walk away from you, while his Brother is 20 seconds further ahead…

How did RC and stew do in their first outdoors 450 race?  there ya go. Needs to work on his starts this week. I see a podium soon.

Villopoto went 1-1 on his debut.

Deegz got handled. Deal with it.

Ryan Dungey went 10-6 in his pro debut on the 450.  James Stewart went 6-30. Others, Like RC, RV, and Jett went 1-1, and other than Jett, they all had a season in sx in the big bikes before racing outdoors.  Jeffrey Herlings went 18-11 in his MXGP debut.  

I’m sure Deegan wanted and probably thought he’d do better, but a top 5 against guys like Hunter, Prado, and Jett is a good starting point because one thing Deegan is known for is building and getting better. It’s been a consistent theme in his career

The only people who would have started as bad as him on the line and finished as well as him were the Lawrence brothers.  20th to 5th and 14th to 4th are pretty good in that field. 🤷‍♀️

I'll tell you how.

Him and his insufferable father have been promoting him as the natural competition for Jett Lawrence.

Jett Lawrence went 22 - 0 in his first season in the 450 class.

Donger got a 5th and 4th place (with Eli out of the motos). 

Jett Lawrence beat Donger with a cooked foot riding at 60 per cent of his usual self. 

As I've always said, Donger is not - and will never be - at the level of Jett Lawrence. 

Conclusion: he - and his douche dad - need to stop chirping.  

And please, please, can the bedbugs stop going on about Deegan and accept he's massively overhyped...

So you made your entire personality around hating some kid and his dad that you’ve never met and have no idea who you are….gotcha 🤔

They dont care. Any other rookie that would have done that not named Jett people would be fawning over. They just simply dont like his off the track stuff so they downplay his on the track performance. 

It comes with the territory.

Hunter is the man to beat. Was like this before today’s race. Why does everyone write him off!

Considering the caliber of riders who finished ahead of him and the ones behind him I would say he introduced himself to the class well. 
Besides I’m sure he’s at his new compound giving a fuck what any of you think. 
Jealousy is an ugly bitch girls.

Doubt that but the start is part of the race, it's a separate skill from all the other things that make up a good rider since you only use it one time a race but it is absolutely part of what makes up a rider's skills.

It was a great first day for Deegan in 450’s in my opinion. Not what his crazed fans said would happen but I never believed that anyway.

I think he still has a chance for the 2026 SX title if I heard RC right.

It is kind of Alessi like come to think of it. Except Dbag is an even bigger shit talker. Did anyone see Jett walk off the podium? Looked like he was walking on a broken ankle. Dude still yarded the mouth.

My guess is if he came into the class humble this thread wouldn’t be relative. The fact that he came in so hot and got smoked by Jett who hasn’t taken a a gate drop in 6 months and 4 other riders that he didn’t have on his radar really tarnished his brand. Not a good look especially on a home track. Talk shot get hit and he just got a one two combo. Grown ass men don’t fuck around and he is finding that out.

I don't care what the rest of this board says, Wolf Man is the GOAT of posting and if you disagree it's because you don't have the capacity to appreciate fine art

Seriously though! What the fuck is this whole situation? The time it took in the making of the shirt and then to take those fucken photos was more than enough to realise how fucken lame that is.. 

He needs better friends

I figured he would finish top 5 with this very stacked field.  Seemed like a decent day.

But he deserves to catch some shit. If you're going to run your mouth then only winning is good enough.
