All

I'll be honest with you, I tried this route but the thing is everybody's criticism is a little different and nobody wants the same thing so no matter what I do I'll never please everyone! That's why I kinda choose to just do it my way and if you like it you can watch, if you don't then you don't have to! Plus its more fun for me to do it like that and that's what this sport is all about, I take things I see into consideration but no matter what people will complain about something! (Like free LL...

It's pretty crazy watching the retired vets beating these kids what does that say about our amateur system?

Nope that’s awesome. The way you justified it I just figured you would be first in line to hand over your CC, you know, speak with your wallet

I guess my title was a little too rough and tumble for the vital crew. Just brutal. Absolutely brutal. These current times we live in are so shitty even online. Back in the Mototalk days the shit that I would say 25 times a day… Now I can't even have a title of a thread without having it changed out...Ghey

thank god for Matt Burkeen.

As others have said, total greedy money grab by MX Sports. When you hear the actual cost of the ranch, there’s no way it’s sustainable at those prices. The luster is gone, with SMX Next, combines, even Canadian Nationals proving a more valuable experience for the next generation of pros. It’ll die off like the Golden State Series back in the day. I wouldn’t pay a dollar to these greedy bastards, and I’m probably not alone in those sentiments.

Careful. I got my account suspended for talking negatively of the all mighty DC.

Please don’t give money to Flo. That’s a disaster we already learned from. Watch Mattie B on YT.

It is pure greed. They charge you to breathe air at the event and now all of the family and friends of the racers also have to pay to see anything from home. Forcing people to pay a $40 membership fee to view an amateur race event. The spirit of LL is gone.

I love how they had a 2000-word press release about this and didnt mention any improvements they want to make to the livestream. Just a bunch of mumbo jumbo and letting us know it will now be $40 a month to watch something that feels like a free livestream.

MX Sports has, unfortunately, sold their soul long ago. 'Racers best friend' has certainly not been carried on. That feels terrible to say. It's a shame what's been happening. I'm not bashing. I'm expressing sadness.

Two 20-minute motos? Then don't call it motocross, because it isn't anymore. Fuck RC, I cannot think of a past champion of any sport I have been a fan of who has fallen from my graces more precipitously than that sycophantic little prick, perhaps OJ - but it's close. There is always MXGP to watch and American MX can become the WNBA to MXGP's NBA. What a shame, Jeff Ward, Tony D, Weinert, Desoto, Blackwell and the like have to be pissed.

Can't believe what I just watched, man. Ricky shilling hard for NBC and acting like it's inevitable, like this just needs to happen... dude, respectfully, shut the fuck up. We don't need to cave to the needs of the TikTok generation and shorten the races, I can't believe this take is coming from the GOAT himself. But hey, fuck it, while we're at it, let's end baseball games after 6 innings. Make football games three periods like hockey. Can't wait to watch the Daytona 300 next year, or the Nurburgring 18 Hours. Can't push back on this hard enough.

I really didn’t like hearing this talked about in their show earlier this week. They were discussing it like it was something everyone has been talking about for a while which surprised me because I haven’t heard anything about shortening motos. I’m guessing this is something that has been discussed in meetings with NBC for a while and the way RC and RV were talking about it…sounds like it is more likely than not to happen. I’ll be let down if we go to 20min + 2 laps. I’ll still watch but I think it sucks. As an aside, IF...

That should be a PR statement. Not a post on a fringe Internet forum. Bad business

All these caviats with this guy all the time. "The tracks don't suit him" He doesn't have the fitness to go flat out for 2x 30+2 2023 wasn't an impressive championship and I'm sure Herlings had health issues in 2024.

Amateur Hour business to say the least. Have a reputable company recreate it for you. Tony Alessi is too busy popping out kids for Lorettas dominance
