There is fuckall wrong with Jett acting his age. They make mistakes and learn from them. Everyone sticking a endoscope up his arse and passing judgment might want to think twice. Are you actually better than him? I have no doubt that he will mature and achieve a good living and retirement from his current profession. Those of you who are losing sleep over Jetts current trajectory in life, please feel free to state your profession, age and what you have achieved. Let's compare....

This. Plus I will add that it started very early with 'generational talent'. Every fool in the media was regurgitating those words During every race, podcast etc. It got WAY overused and I got really sick of hearing it. Then he rode out of control and ended Forkern's season. I was just starting to really pull for Forkner. As someone previously mentioned, I too like to pull for the underdogs and the veterans who may only have 1-2 years left. When Jett is in the back half of his career and considered a veteran if he reaches number 2 on...

The most disturbing thing about this topic is the number of grown men, most of whom are probably middle aged, who deeply dislike some stranger whom they’ve never met (and most likely never will) and whose claim to fame is that he’s fast on a dirtbike. The guy has zero impact on their lives in any meaningful way yet they dislike him enough to be critical of his personality, his family, his career goals etc. If that’s not fucked up in some way or another I don’t know what is.

If he says that, the haters just say "Look at him just reading a script from HRC" He says what he is thinking and gets bagged for it. The joys of a sport with a huge pool or fans with varying thoughts. Some want him and like him for saying what he thinks, some hate him for doing just that. If he read from a script and answered everything neutral there would still be those that hate on him for just doing that, and others thinking he is smart for doing so. A forum full of varying opinions who would...

Haha i can't believe that people are so incredibly anti Jett that some of you claim that his 22-0 in the 450 class as a rookie wouldn't put him in the all-timer bracket (or at the very, very minimum on the brink of it). Sure, the dude made mistakes with the Anderson deal. Sure, he is getting a lot of exposure (95% of it is deserved). But what he did in the summer of 2023 surely puts him in the bracket as an all-time rider. It says a lot about you if you are unable to separate his exposure, his...

It's the truth, I've been watching the sport since 1997 it's the it's been that way since I've been watching it, the one before jett was ferrandis, herlings and so on. I have a friend who is aussie die hard mx fan, he hates anyone who isn't American or Aussie. The only American I've seen hated on here in recent times is friese which is well deserved and Deegan which checks the jealously box. We will see what happens when or if Prado starts winning, because that kid has a lot in common with jett especially personality and ego.

“In all seriousness about that, it probably might not get done, it’s a lot of race wins. Coming in you have got to set such a high goal for yourself that’s going to make you go a little crazy for it and make you work hard. It’s not meaning really that I’m going to do it, it’s I want to have a goal, if I didn’t have a goal I would be happy just to be here and race around in whatever position I wanted." Sounds like a cocky prick, where's my pitchfork? The other thing I'm seeing in this...

It’s mostly jealousy - some people can’t handle watching others have success come to them seemingly easily. Jett’s a super nice kid. My son and I ran into Jett a couple years ago at MotoGP at COTA. My son follows Jett closely (and named his own son - my grandson - Jett) and we knew he was there for a promo with Marc Marquez. One morning we’re walking down a walkway towards the track and pass a few kids, and as we pass my son says to me, “That was Jett Lawrence!” Jett jokingly says, “No it’s not, mate.” Despite...

Everyone loved Hannah for being outspoken, confident and cocky. Yet they hate Jett for way less reasons. Imagine if Jett threw some Monster girls crotch in his face on the podium! Lmao! You can’t make this shit up. The moto community as long as forums have been around have proven to be a bunch of cry babies. You never go to the track and hear this bullshit hate on anyone really. Nature of forums. Flame on.

If you don’t want people to take the word meaningless “so literally” maybe select another word. I’m sure thousands of families have gone broke chasing that “meaningless” title…. Stop down playing how good these guys are on bikes and how much sacrifice it takes to get that “meaningless” title. Don’t even get me started on how hard it is from the ass end of the world.

First time he mentioned McGrath was in interview with ESPN. 22 Sept 2023 "A realistic goal -- it will be hard to do -- is to beat McGrath's Supercross wins record," Lawrence says. "I'm coming in so young and will already be battling for wins straight away." https://www.espn.co.uk/auto/story/_/id/38440295/jett-lawrence-motocross… Then after his first SX win. Jett was then asked about his comment in the pre-season about going after McGraths 72 wins… “In all seriousness about that, it probably might not get done, it’s a lot of race wins. Coming in you have got to set such a high goal for yourself...

A foreigner that is a real threat to the Americans on their home turf is very often disliked by them. Ask JMB, Pourcel, Reed, Ferrandis, Lawrence brothers... Some are also just waiting till the "foreigner" puts one foot wrong to lynch him. Remember when Marvin Musquin did what KTM expected him to do, help Ryan Dungey to claim the SX Championship over Eli Tomac? From than on, even Marvin Musquin had haters. So to sum it up, he's a foreigner who's a real threat for championships the coming years. Than you've the fact that FELD together with his agent Lucas...

If you as a presumptive adult care about how one man apologizes to another man, then I'm afraid he isn't the bitch. Seriously, none of us has any idea what happened. Jett may have went back to the truck and said "Holy crap, I screwed up" and his camp may have told him to just shut up and don't do nothing. I'm would bet large sums of money that he is taking counsel from others.
