A little humble pie is always a good thing. Learn from the day, make the changes, improve and move on. Expect him to continue to move up the board. Nice to have a lower key interview for once.

That's his norm. He comes across as all humble when he gets humbled. Does excellent the following round and Doofus boi appears again.

Wash rinse repeat.

It’s crazy to me in this day and age someone can tell you there Intentions and when they do it.. everyone still falls for the act 


Deegan literally says he does the shit he does for clicks and to get people riled up on the internet. 

People read that and watch it then proceed to get riled up on the internet lol. He gave you his playbook and still got you all fucked up. No wonder politics is so toxic right now. People in general are just so dumb

Dumb is thinking that anyone acting like a douche and doing something "just for clicks" is perfectly fine and helps maintain a stable society.

Before the internet, anyone acting like a douche, for attention or just because that's what they were, was quickly put in their place by society, either by a slap upside the head or simply by having no friends. A slap around the head one night when I was being a smart ass soon taught me to mind my manners.

Sad that it's now, okay "for clicks".

I'll also add that only a cockhead walks around wearing a "RIP  XXX" shirt. It didn't work for Alessi and it certainly didn't work for Deegan, I think Jets burst in the first race was purely motivated by that shirt Smile

I agree 100% with this too. I hate the “content creator” era we are in. I’m also not dumb enough to fall for it.


I’ll never know Deegan personally and nothing he does affects my life. Why would I give two fucks what’s on his T shirt and get all fuckin butthurt over it 😂.

I've never blamed Haiden for dumb things he has said and done as much as the world we live in. I think it's a far greater influence.

He sounded delusional... great ride huh? Didn't even podium is a great ride for him now?? First race?? Really?? Like first race ever?? Nope... first 450 pro race?? Nope... passing an 80 percent Jett for a few seconds is like a lifetime achievement???? Really??? 🤣

Face is welted up. It didn’t show up much on the broadcast, but trackside I watched him take countless face fulls of roost coming through the pack. RJ in particular gave him so many. It was brutal. He’s got more heart than people give him credit for.

4/5 in this field as a 450 rookie is a solid debut and a great result to build off. Came from way back around the first corner. Put the Haterade down bro.

Deegan wearing a shirt that said RIP Jett isn’t going to be the loose strand that pulls society apart. Some of you take yourselves too seriously. Bob Hannah took out an obituary on one of his rivals. It’s called mind games. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. Get over it.  Deegan found out the mind games came up flat against the 450 boys and the world will keep spinning.

I like him way more when he loses than when he wins. Said he needs to not rev the bike as hard to free it up a little. Needs to do the same with his jaw.

Not taking anything from his riding, excellent debut!

You don’t get to wear that shirt, antagonize Jett for months and then “eat humble pie”.  Dude is a clown.

What do you mean “you don’t get to”? He did. Then made an assload of money in the process. 

out of curiosity. How much does your opinion of him pay?

It’s obvious Deegan picked a brand and is sticking with it.

Amd he'll go back to the lab and make the changes he needs to succeed in the 450 class. Just like he's down his entire career.

Yeah he can. And Jett can (and should) wear one that says “RIP Deegs” next week. Free Country, brother

Not acknowledging him at all would be the better play.

I see you are over looking probably the most crucial fact. Nothing Deegan does bothers me. You can feel and read the anger some of these people have in thier souls over some kid and a T shirt. Also, shut up Talin with an I.

Why is it the same 5-7 posters are always in these threads saying stuff like “so much heart, he can do what he wants, he makes so much money blah blah blah” 🤣

Deegan doesn’t need you out here defending him brother

Hunter went 2/3 for 2nd overall in his first 450 race against the same guys who were there yesterday, and with none of the hype or theatrics...

My press day interview was the best I've done with Haiden; he was honest, funny and dropped his guard a little bit.

It was the most 'normal' (is that the right word?) I've seen him.

Did he start in 20th? Better yet, if Hunter started in 20th yesterday, where do you think he would have finished?

Yes and that was a great result for Hunter… look at what he’s doing now. I’m not interested in the comparisons, nor am I interested in 20year olds social media back & fourth. Hunters result doesn’t take away from HD having a solid debut. Sports in a good spot. I’m more interested to see how Cole gets on in the 250s, he could likely 3,4,5 his way into an outdoor title with this field being so inconsistent.
