Seems about right.

Probably 10-15 points closer. I'd agree that it did light a fire so who knows what would have happened in the races after the DQ if there was no call. And im with the majority of racers on the black flag; it was a bad call.

Some people are very bored

Are you slow, or blind?? He mega drove grant high and is a few chromosoms short of a human. I can't believe he touched grant considering all the time he had to sit and analyze the situation. Astonishing to say the least. Dare shant I.

I was just saying that to the gf. Lots of front ends dropping and clipping of jumps.

Where's the black flag?!

A lot of negative people on here assuming the worst apparently. I thought it was fairly obvious what you were meaning. I think they all do well at commentating (Ping will always be my favorite), but it’s pretty ridiculous to pretend some funny stuff isn’t said during the broadcast. I think I even heard Ralph say Tomac and Roczen grew...

Its all good. I think we're breaking it down a lot further than needed. Either way we look at it he's a unique rider helping make the races interesting.

I can see the point you're making, I just don’t discuss a professional SX or MX race relative to how I did in the same race for various reasons. Myself and most people I’ve worked in shops and rode with would talk about a pros riding based on the level they compete at and rational expectations based on their historic...

Comparing how anyone who has an opinion would have done in the same race seems really out of place and meaningless. ESPN has entire shows where analysts breakdown what NFL players did well or not well based on how they perform relative to their past performance and the performance of those in which they compete against, and I’m pretty sure...

People are bored and get worked up easily. Toss in the internet and commence uproar.

I wouldn't count on being brand new or not making much of a difference at the 5 year mark. That amount of time was typically what i heard in the shops i worked at, new or not. And when it comes to my head, I care about it so i wouldnt push it. I'd spend a little more to make...

I'd agree mostly, but please don't let the terrorists win. Keep your avatar.

This sounds more agreeable and I'd agree for the most part. Sometimes the image given to the masses isn't exactly an accurate or flattering one. I remember a few years back, a professional rider died of exhaustion i believe and the story made it to a fairly popular newspaper. One of the comments appeared to be from an average suburban...

I doubt Mitch kicked anything...

Well depending on where the second option has been, it may be safer to hit the first option. Not to mention hitting the second could leave you with 18 years of child support if you held it wide open.

What in the hell?? If nothing else I’m thankful for this thread because I would have never believed it if someone said kids riding wheelies through streets are getting big sponsors and interviews with what seem like legit websites. Anyone think this would happen if someone started doing one small part of another sport in an entirely inappropriate location? I...

Glad i'm not the only one. This is my second day skimming this thread and i still dont know whats happening here. Even if this kid didnt steal anything, he rides wheelies through streets and is apparently getting some support. Did he win some major race or event in the past and is now doing this stuff? All i've seen...

Take your time. Unless youre getting paid a lot to rush back out there, its not worth any additional risk to your health. Spend the time building strength back in that leg or else your body compensates slightly and in the not so distant future youll have a new set of issues. 8 years later, my knee is starting to...

One thing i easily agree on; the tracks are becoming way too skiny/narrow. Seems like a lot of tracks are getting to only the blade width of a standard dozer. If the tracks are going to be tight and choppy, at least make them wider for line options.
