I find him to be an interesting character and have no doubt that he is a superb team manager. Still, I think he is fairly inept at dealing with fans, and undermines their importance to the success of the sport. Hint: It's everything.

Larry came here and stated something trying to go above and beyond for the fans here, got ripped for misspelled words and run on sentences. Then some keyboard heroes thought they could tell him a he was wrong or they did not agree with him.

Because he stayed his ground and did not bow down to the "fans" he was an asshole crappy manager.

He should have just stayed away and never bothered, then his management skills would never have been blasted on Vital.

Isn't it odd that the only manager that gets blasted on Vital is LB, maybe because others stay away instead of trying to interact.

my point is,

If Roger "The Man" Decoster came on here you would have individuals that would take a stab just because they could.

Notice how no other team mangers come on here? What happened to Ozzy since he became Chad's?

Nobody opens themselves up to scrutiny by staying away, VERY SMART! Larry should have done that, people here are very swayed by his message board antics, because he stunk on a message board and went toe to toe with some keyboard warriors doesn't mean he can't mold champions and win championships as a team manager.

now, excuse me..... I'm going to try to go fuck myself now. Smile

Don't know him & it doesn't really matter. My perception is he's far from the best Team Manager. He has successfully hired established champions & helped carry their careers. MC, Bubba & JS were all winners & @ the top of their game before they landed with LB. IMO everyone of them also rode better on other equipment, other than what LB provided. McGrath was better on the Honda both before & after he rode the Yamaha. Stewart does not look as good on it as he did on the Kawasaki. But, these riders talent are so much greater than their competition that even with a less than stellar set-up, they are still better than their competition. Reed always complained about set-up there & I can't remember Stewart ever having such set-up issues at Kawasaki.

IMO, the best Managers can provide the best equipment, assistance with set-up & develop talent into a champions. LB doesn't fit those, he's provided equipment satisfactory for existing champions to win. Mitch Payton & Decoster (& maybe even Stanton) are leagues ahead of LB.

I know some people take stabs, but the majority become kiss ass brown nosers. Take DV for example, likable but known for not testing / practicing & generally one of the lazier riders. He comes on here & everyone is instantly his biggest fan, at least until he screwed over one of his riders.

Let's get back on track this thread is about Stewart breaking up LB or what Reed says it's is like having an insecure girlfriend that you have got to keep giving hugs and say I love you too all the time. lol.
Wish i could find that interview it was so funny he was comparing Decoster and Brooks

Exactly, keep it on the topic.

Didn't Jason Thomas say on pulpmx recently that James and Chad had some common ground now and they were not hating each other? Could this be the common bond of having Larry as a team manager and not getting along with him? Who knows...

So let me get this straight, a four line speculative post about LB & Stewart parting ways and 5 full pages of arguing about something thats not even been confirmed or denied yet?

Maybe, we just cannot confirm or deny that your speculation is plausible.

Oh wait.... VitalMX. What did you expect?

If someone posted "James Stewart is pregnant" we would get 5 pages.

Interesting stuff.
I hate to say it, but there's a stupid ass and his name is Little Dave. LB is the best thing that ever happened to Reed and Stewart. Larry could turn Villopoto into a 450 champ if given the chance.

That's the same thing I though. Lb didn't make reed or stewart, they made him.

There seems to be a lot of people missing the point of this thread, rag on LB don't rag on LB I couldn't give a shit but the thread was about a possible JS LB split and of course people speculate about the 'why's' of such a split - hence the ragging.

Also was posted earlier; twitter from DV:

I got confirmation. It's 100% true and done! RT @pulpmx: One source I talked to says he's "99% sure" that brooks has split from Stewie.

As much as I really have a bad taste in my mouth for LB's tactics, his record does not lie. Maybe it's the tactics, secrecy and spin that JS7 had a gut full of. Or, maybe, L&M got a good price for their 6? year old investment and are laughing all the way to the bank.
LB once had a covalent bond with the sport of mx, but clearly he has lost that touch over the last few years........
