DonM Liked a reply to forum topic I think we may have found the guy that can grow the sport

This "grow the sport" term is usually said by those that aren't paying attention...they always bring up "we were on ESPN" or "Only if we were on ESPN". What many don't realize is that back then when we were on ESPN or ABC the sport was paying to be on TV and by doing that they brought the sport to the point that Fox and NBC began paying for the TV rights and fast forward to this year NBC/Peacock is paying way more than anyone ever has which has allowed Feld and MXSports to pay the riders more and create...

I like to wear my riding jersey to the races to set myself apart from the posers.

Price of hot catalytic converters expected to rise in Oakland due to supply shortages. The Butterfly Effect strikes again.

Tomac smoking his clutch in the mud probably is our only change for an exciting title chase, so no.

I agree with what you’re saying. I don’t think 22 guys riding dirt bikes has the same “wow” factor that someone driving an open wheel car at 160+ mph (or however fast those cars go) through city streets does, to the uninvolved viewer. As said earlier, the first time my wife watched with me, she asked why they were so...

I can see what you're saying, and there's truth in the unattainability of an F1 , but watching an F1 onboard or Nascar isn't that impressive either. But I have to repeat MX/SX IS massively popular. You have a domestic championship that tours around stadiums and generating millions of dollars. Most motorsports would kill for that level of popularity.

Eliminate the 250 main event logo on the start that caused Forkner crash. Actually I like the start overlay. It’s a nice touch for non-moto viewers knowing which class is on the track.

I think the lack of respect is rooted, at least in part, in the fact that it doesn’t seem unattainable. People can’t go buy an F1 car, drive two hours and race it- same with NASCAR. I think most of the public believes they could buy a clapped out, used dirt bike and do the things they see SX/MX riders...

The right guy is out there. We've all met that dude...born with a wrench in hand, built his first computer at 11, his day has 32 hours, couldn't care less about money, knows way more about everything than his age should dictate. But, he's a needle in a stack of needles. Good luck.

So you are looking for rider, videoeditor and car mechanic in one person for a subpar salary? You need to breed RC4 with MacGyver and Quentin Tarantino... And deprive the final product of any sense of selfworth. In all seriousness, what do you bring to the table in this endeavor?

How many people, on Friday afternoon, would be excited about the proposition of spending all weekend with your boss? Likewise, how many would like to spend all weekend with their subordinates? If this were to really take off (which is a long shot), there will also issues when the YouTube money rolls in… and the sidekick is still pinching pennies...

As someone who has never been that into MXGP, I think it would be bad ass to see Roczen race that series. I’d definitely watch and root for him. I think this is a cool scenario.

I wonder if Ken isn’t just having trouble coping with the fact it isn’t as easy anymore. When you perform at his level for so long.. then injuries happen (especially the degree of injuries he has been through) and you get older and your body starts fall off a little bit.. and now maybe those injuries become even more of...

Yeah.....you "slog" away and in return they provide benefits, paid vacation, a salary/hourly pay, and basically guaranteed employment. Sounds terrible to me. All "corporations" are just small businesses that did it better and then create jobs, tax revenue etc etc.

Typical stupid BS from JA. Really dumb move for someone on probation. Again, what’s the point of being on Probation if you can still continue to ride like an asshat?
