He is prohibited from attending any future mx sports event. I posted a picture of the letter. So no qualifiers, mx, smx, highpoint events, ect. I would say the way its worded it means banned for life.

It is excessive. Unfortunately, MX Sports has complete control. VitalMX, PulpMX, and any other media outlet knows it's wrong but won't say sh*t because it will cost them their paychecks. I don't blame them, but I do feel sorry for the position they are in. If anyone could say something, it'd be Matthes, but he won't because they are all buddies. I get the Cooksie ban, but Slowie is just a fan.

A permanent ban from all future MX Sports events? Get real.

Call me crazy, but banning this dude from any future SX or MX event because of that video is excessive.

i really hope this is just a disingenuous take and not a small brain attempt at gatekeeping. everything is about clicks and views. cucksy and slowie aren't even on the same axis.

How are they the same?

That letter looks like a template against "defamation" lol. Just fill in "Person's name", "Events" and click send.

Exactly, I’m not even what you would call a “fan” of his. I’ve met him once in real life, chill ass guy and genuine, loves racing and humble. I watch some of his videos. But anyone with a reasonable rational brain could see problems with the ban lol. What cracks me up the most though is how the “lawyer” addresses him as “Connor Slowie” 🤣 they don’t even know his real name.

I agree with your take. I don't follow his social media but do watch some of his videos. Ive never heard him bad mouth mx sports. If anything he gives them free advertisrment. Cooksey getting banned on the other hand I can see why. I can also see why they worry about insurance and some videos but fix the issues and you'll never stop everyone from making videos. To me this feels like mx sports (mostly Tim) just throwing his weight around because he can. Im not some super fan of the guy but he always seems positive and gives...

I’m not sure why everyone is downvoting an honest discussion about the curiosity surrounding a permanent ban of a Videographer/blogger that goes to races lol. I’ve been watching his videos for a while, he really doesn’t talk horribly about MxSports, sure he’ll have some criticism or opinions, but he’s not really the type of guy who is trying to defame them. He’s made some claims that were false before because he genuinely thought that was the case (I.e. claiming Jeremy hand was the reason for the red flag 🚩 at shougal) but he’s very quick to admit when he was...

the lawyer letter he posted accused him of defamation. for something to be defamatory, it has to be harmful and false. it doesnt seem theyve specified what was harmful. complaining about the rise in costs to go to mx sports events? if so, that's not untrue. i'd like to know what it was that triggered tim cotter or whomever, otherwise it just looks like politics. getting the wrong rider for the red flag isnt great but isnt per se harmful.

Cairoli is one of those rare guys you must see perform in person to fully get his gift - yes, he has the grit and determination, and skill needed to be the champion he is but one cannot fully explain Cairoli until you see him craft his way around a track at race pace. The nuance actions that add up to tenths and then seconds and then championships - remarkable. He has "it" I'm glad I saw him the few times I did. Legend is a word that gets too easily tossed around but Tony is indeed that in our...

Pre Ass burn!! Was pumped to meet Tony!

You could see Weltin going back to help 222 during the race broadcast… good on him👍 222 is legend….

We sat on the hillside yesterday, and as Jett lapped him he turned around over the finish and waved him on. AC threw a thumbs up and charged with him for a lap or two and caught soooo many people off guard making lots of passes.

39 years old to get back on the bike and charge to 23 is unreal. Heart of a champ no doubt about it. Welton is a class act for doing what he did.

Weltonis a true champion for helping out another rider. Love seeing shit like that. If it was on the broadcast I missed it. Pretty badass of Caroli to get 10th after that incident with no real reason to fight except for that’s the type of guy he is.
