The Moth Added a reply to DeCoster Whoop change
2/22/2023 8:19pm "I picture you as the bald guy with a ring of grey hair and a ponytail you just can't let go of. Probably wearing those creepy glasses that tint in the sun, tye dye shirt, cut off jean shorts, Birkenstocks and yellow toenails" This made me laugh, but I would suggest posting while sober. It's not that others mind a...

The Moth Added a reply to MXA take on fake probations
2/20/2023 12:01pm A dirty move will always be at the discretion of the one's making the call, and it should be since not all incidents are the same and can't be tuned down to a science with measuring angles in a corner. MXA is only pointing out that probation carries with it, very little practical consequences. You can see this when Jason...

2/18/2023 8:46am Some people tend to forget that it's alcohol, and not truth serum, that they are drinking. NorCalRedRyder is perfect example of that.

2/17/2023 8:00pm It's been cleared up here if you are interested: https://racerxonline.com/2023/02/15/450-words-fewer-whoops This week, Feld Motor Sports' Mike Muye explained to us how decisions get made on track changes, hoping to put some of these rumors to rest. Here’s how the process worked in Tampa: “Prior to the start of practice, some riders mentioned the need to remove one whoop at the...

2/17/2023 7:55pm You are basically reiterating what I've said, only you seem to be taking a cheap shot at Roger, which I'm not sure why. All of the riders you mentioned, even Micky Dymond, had top 10 and top 5 results so Arnold saw the talent and it payed off. That's what a good team manager does. An even better team manager...

2/15/2023 11:32pm Speaking ill towards Roger DeCoster when it is done in ignorance such as you are doing should not be accepted here or anywhere else. Can you name one manager or influential member of a team that has has won with "dudes" that would not have won otherwise? It's not like Larry Brooks molded Chad Reed or James Stewart into champions...

The Moth Added a reply to The look on Eli's face
2/15/2023 12:27pm Eli is so good that if he doesn't win one race, people start asking why. I doubt Eli has to look too hard to get more wins and along with that, keep his red plate. Reed, Stewart, RC,a nd RV were all beasts in Supercross, but even they had off nights.
The Moth Added a reply to Jason Anderson on probation
2/15/2023 12:24pm His team should be unhappy about Jason being put on probation, and they should be equally unhappy with his response to being put on probation. Jason has next level talent, and can be a threat for the title, but that will never happen if he continues to lose focus of winning the title and gets into spats with other riders...

2/12/2023 6:50pm Weege said this about the whoops: " Funny, on Friday afternoon Stew saw how close the last whoop was to the entrance to the turn and said it would be gone by race time . And it was. Dudes were gonna go flying straight through that turn the way it was set up"

2/12/2023 2:36pm If Matthes heard this and is repeating it, then what he's reporting is hearsay. It is information that cannot be substantiated at this point. I have no reason to think Matthes is making things up here. So far though, and I will put an emphasis on that, no evidence or reasons for supposing Roger did such a thing have come...
The Moth Added a reply to El Hombre and Bam Bam tweets?
2/12/2023 12:54pm The difference between Justin Barcia and Jason Anderson is that Anderson is a legit contender for the title. Barcia is at the tail end of his career and is not likely going to be a threat for the title. That should weigh on Anderson. He needs to be smart out on the track and avoid confrontations with other riders, and...
The Moth Added a reply to DeCoster Whoop change
2/12/2023 12:47pm Your reply perfectly illustrates the point that I'm getting at. When Matthes (or any other journalist for that matter) tweets something that is at this point, pure speculation, it then turns into people speculating, which isn't fair to DeCoster or Cooper Webb. Is it fair for Matthes to name Roger DeCoster but not name the team who is making the...
The Moth Added a reply to DeCoster Whoop change
2/12/2023 9:31am It's not clear that one team manager does wield that type of power since what is being claimed is speculative at this point. It also reflects poorly on those who choose to believe it since it takes away from the very solid, winning performance of Webb. I also find it brackish of Matthes to throw this claim out there without...

2/11/2023 8:48pm Haiden Deegen has been more than impressive. If any other rider, in their first season in sx , achieved the results Haiden has, they would be getting accolades for their accomplishments. Brian has done an excellent job in shaping his son for motocross, and if you are not commending Haiden Deegan, then perhaps you should examine your bias. Just as...
