everyone has an opinion about Jett....Jett is worried about Jett, specifically his ankle which he did mention. if it was good he said he could go much faster. funny how people cannot comprehend that

I think another surgery might be on the cards for Jett if by the end of SMX his recovery hasn't progressed the way him and his team would have hoped. He will probably have to weigh up having surgery to get scar tissue removed and more time off the bike vs dealing with limited mobility for the rest of his career and not being able to ride to his full potential. Even a few more degrees of range of motion would make another surgery worth it. When you have 12 weeks of non weight bearing post original surgery and limited movement you are really up against it with your recovery. Time will tell.

There's something about the "Not being professional" conversation I can't figure out. I know it's not a professional look like other sports. I get that. But who's really upset by it ?, and do those people being upset somehow  "Hurt the sport" ?  Is someone not going buy a dirtbike now because Jett waved a camera out of his face and said fuck ? Are there people on the fence that much that that could sway them away to a different form of recreation ? Are there parents out there thinking about buying dirtbikes for their kids and maybe even getting into racing that are going to change their minds because they saw "A" motocross racer slamming his helmet down after a bad race or kicking his bike off the stand ?  Are they going to switch to Hockey ? or Baseball, Football or some other sport ? Watching guys wad up and get carted off seems like more of a deterrent to me and they show crashes repeatedly from several angles.  Are the TV networks going to drop SX/MX because of some post race drama ? eeehhhhh probably.... not ?  What does growing the sport even mean ? More spectators ? Or more people buying bikes and signing up to race at their local track ? (The few that are left) I can't see an individual or family who wants to get into dirt bike racing, not get into dirt bike racing because of some "Colorful" moments from racers who are caught up in the heat of the moment.  Are sponsors going to take their money somewhere else over it ?  When motocross racers are caught being "A little rough around the edges" compared to other mainstream sports, who and what does it hurt ?  And how ?  Me personally ? Fuck I thought it was great, that's a side of the sport that anyone who's done it can relate to. Me and my circle of misfits laughed it off and said holy shit those guys were pissed, could you imagine that happening to you ? Fuck I'd be pissed too. And then didn't give it another thought and went back to living our lives and talking about next week.  I like, no love the fact that motocross isn't all polished and proper. Does that make me white traaa... nah lets don't go there those posts got deleted 😄. Upward and onward to next week. I'm missing the "Big deal" of it all  🙅‍♂️  Not trying argue just legitimately curious, who is going to change their course of action over something like that ?  No one I know, maybe there's people like that out there but I sure don't know any.  Bring on Southwick !! 😄

I can’t believe anyone’s the slightest bit bothered by all this. Jett was pissed and didnt want a camera in his face until he had a second to regroup. So what who cares. No one wants a camera in their grill when they’re pissed and upset. To me it shows he (and Hunter) are normal.  I bet $100’ and breakfast anyone giving them shit for their reaction would absolutely lose their minds if someone stuck a camera in their face during one of their worst days.  🤷‍♂️😆.  Jett just gave the cameraman a downvote, like this post is going to get. LOL 

Much ado about nothing

 I agree with some others, you'd think he would be more pissed after that 5th place finish on the 2nd moto. More than anything, we're seeing Jett is not the winning machine of years past. He's mortal and other racers are smelling blood.  I was kinda surprised to see he was 2 seconds off (slower) Deegans best lap in the 2nd moto.  When he caught Deegs in that 2nd moto, His mind told him to pounce fast, and make quick work of getting around him and avoid a situation. Unfortunately for Jett, it cost him when the inside of that corner was dryer than the outside and just didn't have the grip. 

Is Deegs in Jett's head. I'd say after he looped out there when Deegs was hopefully his next pass, that yes Deeg's is in his head. Even if ever so slightly.

Can we please stop saying Deegs is in Jett's head every fucking thread ???!!  Ffs

What the hell is wrong with just accepting he had a bad day ???!!

How buried in the pack is finishing 5th?  He had many laps to lay down a faster lap than 2:13's to Deegs 2:11's  and Jorge's 2:09.  If you were paying attention, you'll notice Jett couldn't run in the 2:11's like Deegs in either moto. Not even the one he won? Does that mean he was buried in the pack running 2nd or leading? I'm confused now!

Sorry, kinda sounds like an excuse. Even Jett wouldn't want you making excuse's for him.

U do know deegan had 11th fastest lap in moto 1 with a 2:17 right?

Yeah, I've seen baseball players fully destroy a dug out over being struck out, and the game wasn't even over.

Can't figure out the outrage.

Isn't it legal to bet on SX/MX races now?  I have never seen someone so upset to win a race before, especially after throwing out the boat anchor near the end of the moto which is beyond at all normal for him, even in this season.

No, getting upset is not white trash.  I'm saying the spot has a white trash reputation yet people here want to "grow the sport" and make it more professional.  I said I was fine with the tantrum, that shows the fire in them.  But swiping a camera on a broadcast that is supposed to be for a professional sport, is where you shouldn't be giving any free passes.  They fine athletes in other sports for unsportsmanlike conduct.  So I guess it depends how you view our sport.

Are we a professional sport, yes or no?  If yes, consider how many other professional athletes swipe a camera away when they lose.  If no, then not a problem, continue on with business as usual.

Hilarious..... No.1 Diaperboy fluffer calling out the white trash factor in MX 🤣🤣🤣

"Looks good on you though".

Deegans: "Like... thank you, like.... click on the link below to like...subscribe to my channel". 

If you don't lnow what "metaphor" means, compare Tomac or Dungey's behaviour to the Deegan Scummy and Twitchy crowd.

i agree there is probably another surgery on the ankle.....makes sense to get it done immediately after the MX season to get ready for SX in January. i hate he had that inury...

Winning with class is important—but so is losing with class. I don’t agree with motioning the TV cameras away after a tough race. 


 

Really what you saying is ,you don’t wanna know the truth. You wanna believe that the riders are perfect. Nothing is wrong with Jett or Big Brothers behavior. If I was paying riders the big bucks , I would want them to be upset when things go wrong. These guys are fierce competitors. Winning is everything.💯

I believe in the five minute cooldown rule. If I have a bad race I pull over after the finish and collect myself before I go back to the truck. I’ve instructed my son to do the same. I think the comparison to other sports is slightly off. When a baseball player strikes out or QB throws an interception they haven’t been redlined at 190+ bpm for 35 minutes straight. I don’t agree with the way they reacted but I also don’t have a problem with it. You want raw reactions sometimes people might not like what they hear.

I think the cameras in their face as they dismount with HR still pegged and adrenaline pumping is unnecessary anyway, let them get the dirt out of their teeth and recover a little, in 3 minutes they will be up on the podium ask the questions to them there. 

I disagree those first moments after they take the helmet off and talk to the team are awesome. You can't get any more real than that.

IIRC it was on that shirt he was wearing with a few stupid comments that looked like kindergarteners made it in crafts time.
