Jett literally took Million Dollar paydays off Hunter's plate at least twice already... why would anyone think all of the sudden he wouldn't now?!

Oh and the guy who's been 30seconds behind all year is ahead. Clearly injured but sure, put the tinfoil hat on. Good lord.

Its pretty shit how many morons are casting shade on Hunter and Jett. You'd have to be the lowest of shit to keep dragging their efforts down. Miserable khunts. No wonder America is on the crest of becoming an islamic communist state. Have a good hard look at yourselves dumphuks.

Tiddlywinx like Ping, who's hardly travelled beyond Orange county in his life, has panic attacks taking his kid to a liberal city, cast a long deep shaddow on the Lawrences. I used to have some respect for the guy, now he's just an self entitled asshole.

His qualifying pace VS his race pace proves that is not true.

That would make sense if he didn’t lay down the fastest lap in that moto out of no where, with 2 laps left… 


Seems weird don’t it?

Right here is one of the biggest problems in these situations: Misinformation. Most people just glance thru here and take it as the gospel, and then it becomes an easy way for even more people to start piling on and believing it when they read something like that and go "See! There's even more proof, tell me how THAT'S possible?!?"  

Jett did NOT "lay down the fastest lap of the moto". He laid down HIS fastest lap of the moto! Huge difference (to the tune of almost four and a half seconds off Prado's fastest lap, and a full second or more slower than everyone else ahead of him in the top 10 except for Jordon Smith)

 Conspiracy theories take shape really quick when people might not know the facts, don't know where to find the facts, or are just too lazy to look it up themselves. I'm not accusing you or anyone in particular btw, just saying that misinformation like this throws fuel on the fire really quick, especially when most are just casually bench racing about a subject like this, (which btw as someone else mentioned, is calling a certain rider's integrity into question)

You are correct. I needed to word that better, he did not lay the fastest lap out of everyone, he rode HIS fastest lap. Thanks for catching.

Hunter won, end of story. He was the better rider this Summer in every category and earned the title, despite the moto DNF at Unadilla. Excited for SMX playoffs and see how Deegan and Prado do against Hunter and Jett. Webb should be up there too it will be fun to watch. JuJu, Davies and Hymas should be fun to watch in 250 SMX. AND we get the women racing too for the finals!

How dare we speculate and discuss a complete anomaly that happened during a tightly contested championship between brothers 😱

Well done you took my words and completely twisted them for your own narrative

Jett was tiered as fk hearing about it every time they talked Moto.

"Here ya little bitch!, Ill give ya one".

No fkin way he hurt his ankle in turn one, nothing supports it.

Needs an Oscar for moto 2 prep behind the gate.

 

Bet Jett said "Thats it Mthr Fkr!, never again!."

All the sudden, just like that, the Deegan haters' bullshit meter ran out of batteries when it came to Jett riding a snails pace in moto 1 and miraculously feeling better for moto 2 while putting in a solid 3rd place ride! Now they believe the narrative that's being spoonfed to them.

Before the 1st turn of last week… when he picked a gate for no reason that went right off the track

The amount of people wearing tin foil hats is wild! Not everything is a conspiracy! Hunta was a better rider this summer, Jett wasn’t 100% for it, and Jett dabbed his leg moto 1. The better rider won the title!

How does dabbing your foot on lap 1 lead to a bad start in that same moto in your world?

Nah Jett risking lifelong suspension of AMA sanctioned events (per the rulebook) to hand his brother the title by one single point is purely logical

Has anyone watched the Deegan crash in slow motion?

It sure didnt look like his front tucked or washed out. 
 

You wouldnt think he just tries to “tip” right there in front of Hunter?

Let me know your thoughts afyer watching.

215,216,217 most laps

Hunters were 214,215

Deegs were 215,216,217

Surprised deega only made it to p16


Track was fast and hard to make up positions

And I thought no one would be mad at Hunter winning. 

Dude deserves it. Puts his best foot forward season after season coming up short by 1 spot so often. There are no gimmes in motocross, who gives a f about the last round. Hunter got 6 overalls Jett got 4. Hunter was the best this summer.

It wasn't a secret plan between the bothers. I think it was Jett doing what humans do, emotions get involved, it's his brother. Maybe after seeing the heart break after supercross, then seeing him throw it away at unadilla, and then seeing him stuck under deegans bike influenced his mental state and decisions.... Maybe he felt he lucked into it, and wanted to give his brother something he thought he deserved.

It doesn't mean this shit was planned. 

 

Who TF knows what went on inside his head. None of us will ever know. Maybe he was hurt, maybe he wasn't. But it's most definitely not outside of the realm of possibility after what we saw today 

Jett getting passed by 18th place... Poking around... Then comes out second moto and is magically healed is just a bit of an eye brow raiser 

Probably the most rational,  plausible explanation I've read.

I agree with everything you’re saying but it’s more than just an eyebrow raiser, I think it’s pretty obvious given what we all saw. I’ve not lost an ounce of respect for them and I picked Hunter to win the championship anyways, so it worked out. Within the first ten minutes I think it became clear what was taking place. If Deegan wouldn’t have taken Hunter out we probably wouldn’t even be discussing this today but he did and I think it changed things.

I haven’t really seen anyone that mad that he won. I think it’s more so on how the race played out.
