I think every person ever charged with a felony was sorry they were caught. Isn't that how it works? I do like to see SOME sort of mentiuon from him and his team though. That is one bright spot to this.

People throw words around like unfortunate, bad luck, "mistake" (my personal favorite). As you said though, it's just plain dumb. This is dumb for a 16-year old with no parental guidance, let alone for a 25 year old multi-millionaire professional athlete. Now I have better understanding of why he has no fear on the track.......

.......No Brain, No Pain.
I was fucking off more at 25 than I was at 16.
Congratulations. And what the hell is your point?

I don't know what is dumber, actually doing what you did or posting it here like it proves something. I'm sure James will point this out to any sponsors that give him crap about this.

Washington State Basketball player Klay Thompson got busted with a little weed this year., and took the mic in front of 20,000 fans on his home floor and apologized in front of everyone. he stepped up like a man and faced the music.

Now you want to compare an amateur basketball player to a pro SX racer? Did you see the word allegedly in that piece? If so then you might be able to figure out that he is going to fight it or at least act like it to put it off. Was Klay Thompson allegedly caught with weed?
ya I am comparing. an amatuer KID stepped up like a man and a 25 year old multi millionaire MAN has some bs PR released. Ya if you want to believe he "allegedly " used the lights, ok. We all know he did, but since he hasn't been to court and charges haven't been filed they can say "allegedly"

And no Klay Thompson hadn't been prossecuted yet either, but he apologized the next night, in public.

Understood, but rumor through the ranks was that Yamaha was gonna drop him anyway if he couldn't produce a championship this year. This may be the easy out. And yes, but Ricky wasn't out committing felonies either.

No, he was breaking the rules of racing and threatened to walk until they said he could keep his points. Where did your Yamaha info come from and what does it have to do with the AMA and a suspension?

Sorry, that thought ran through my brain when I was replying to you. The Yamaha info was rumor from some industry people I know, may or may not be reliable. So you think he has the leverage to keep them from suspending him? It would seem natural that he would keep his points.

I don't think there is any chance that he will get suspended by the AMA. None. I would almost bet avatars on it.

I would impersonate a police officer in a second to get my friend to the airport on time. Anyone who thinks that is wrong can go fuck themselves. This "incident" makes me more of a Stewart fan.

Thanks. The point is that many don't do shit until they get out of their parents house. How do you know what I did at age 25 that I didn't do at 16? Go ahead and judge since I have been watching you act a fool on here for the last 2 days.

It doesn't matter what I believe or what you believe. Apparently from them putting "allegedly" in the press release they are not ready to admit guilt to the charges. Good on Klay but really, who gives a fuck?

The terminology of "impersonating a police officer" for pulling people over with lights is similar to becoming a registered "sex offender" for taking a piss off your back porch and having the cop spot it (happened in my hometown a few years ago).

I really feel bad for James with this whole deal and I hope he can have some good races and put it to rest.

Exactly

RC was no angel, but that's no one's business but his.

Wow that is pretty fucked up.

I don't feel all bad for him, but I do think the potential punishment is a bit much in this case. I don't think he should have a felony with him for the rest of his life based on the evidence thus far.

Yeah, some dude was taking a piss off his back porch next to a vacant park the city was wanting to remodel. Unfortunately, the city council members were there, along with some police officers. Talk about being in the wrong place at the wrong time... Now he's a registered sex offender for being an outdoor piss taker.

x2! But, he's not had his day in court yet and I have a feeling both people will have the charges reduced. At least I hope because I agree that even though the police see this as serious, I really doubt James thought he was doing something that could land him a felony if caught. Granted, maybe he should have but I don't think he did. He doesn't seem like a trouble-maker to me (except when going into corners on dirt).

Your words, not mine.

I didn't judge. I responded to what you wrote. You were bragging about your level of fucking off at 25 compared to when you were 16.

Don't know what else to tell you if you're having trouble comprehending what YOUR OWN post says. But I'm the fool. Okay. Means a lot coming from you.

He flashed his brights and turned on some red and blue lights to get some idiots to move out of the way.
Turned out to be the wrong idiots to do that to, although I would bet that the off duty cops in their personal vehicle were screwing around to begin with.

Quite a bit different than "impersonating an officer". It's not any different than what every volunteer firefighter does every day around the country.

Now I'm worried about the rest of the field. This might just be the thing that gets him to focus on the championship. Don't worry about it Bubba, you ain't human if you don't have a little fun once in a while! Now git yer ass back out there and keep the rubber side down!
sorry Dude....found this post VERY amusing...............................

#1.....the "rest of the field" will be fine if JS doesn't take them out being stupid

#2...the guy IS focused on the C-ship......................the problem is he is not focused on HOW to win said C-ship

#3...."keep the rubber side down".....well I won't even begin to comment on that




Keep in mind I am hoping CR wins the title(most UNDERRATED rider IMHO)..but am a fan of JS nonetheless. The guys raw talent is unbelievable. Love to watch him dissect a SX/MX track.

Perhaps it was the residual damage that he suffered from his multiple concussions as of late. Maybe he can call on you to be an expert witness?

Again, this is totally blown out of proportion. We have all fucked up, sometimes we get caught, sometimes we don't, but we often learn by our mistakes which I'm sure Stew will as well.

Shouldn't we admire him for being such a talented rider, and not as a person that provides ethical or moral guidance? if we want that, we should know there are way better places than the supercross series?

If you shave of that facade shaped by PR and new found money that makes them buy expensive toys and outfits you will just find a bunch of insecure home schooled kids that are still under the progress of growing up.

then you say "Nothing here that is as bad as some would like to think." .........EXACTLY so what would be so epic about a win? thats all i was asking.
"Epic" for a couple reasons.....
He hasn't won for a while now...would be reason #1.

Reason #2
He is under the eye of a lot of media outlets down here in Florida and also many other media outlets have covered his arrest story.If he goes out there and wins this weekend in Dallas I hope and would assume some of those same media outlets will cover his results in their sports section (it is news worthy for them if he wins).
If he doesn't win,I would assume it wouldn't be all that news worthy to them.

Not to mention him making news all over,may draw in more viewers/fans/Channel surfers/Etc. on CBS (a major network) on Sunday who are curious.....
So IMO I think a win would be Epic this weekend. Wink
Also with the week he has had,I'm sure a win would be a good way to end it.

Hey I don't follow the news channels and papers in FL, but do you really think they'll cover it if he wins? I'm not sure they do much of anything regarding supercross besides when it's in town.

You would think they would,it is news worthy.....many mentioned his 4th in Toronto last weekend.
I follow the TV news & some of their sites.

I'll mail them the results Saturday night if he wins. Wink

Also you may see another news stories when he appears in court and they also might mention his results as they did with his 4th in Toronto.

Epic would be if he won every race and managed to win the title. EPIC is a big word.
