This is absolute stupidity gone to seed.

It’s unfortunately impossible not to, but I do go out of my way not to buy Chinese made items whenever I can. If you knew how truly bad the CCP is and their intentions towards us and the globe as a whole, you would do the same as well. I can assure you it’s much worse than the media lets off.

I think Blair was the best one in the whole announcing crew .

Blake Baggett.... who's with me? (deja vu)

He smoked all your 'good old US boys' in his rookie 450 season or you talking about Rubén Fernández? Who also probably beats most Americans outdoors

I bet every single one of you talking crap, if you saw his PW on a stand at the track with coated forks would stop and check it out. It isn't your money so chill the hell down 😂 That being said, it IS outrageous but you only live once.

Why?

When I was a kid, I actually wrote a letter to RC. Dropped it in the mailbox along with a poster I had of him and forgot about it. A month or so later my dad is checking the mail and says "Who is R Carmichael?". Of course, I assumed he was joking until he handed me a brown envelope that was sure as sh*t addressed to me from R. Carmichael and whatever the FL address was. I opened it up and he sent me back the picture i sent him, signed, as well as another couple autographed posters. As...

He's riding exceptional, better than his championship years currently it's just that some other guys have gotten faster around him. I find him just a fascinating rider, he's pushing his hardest atm.

There's an article on RacerX that speaks to this topic. Not that it will change anyone's mind...

Roger DeCoster has forgotten more about this sport than you know, Lemming.

So if the whoops were longer or bigger Sexton would not have crashed?

As long as they don't start building walls again it's fine. But, they do make for some awesome shots.

I was impressed how humble Coop seemed about it in his interview on Pulp. Basically just admitted that leaving was a mistake, said he and Aldon had a heart to heart and hashed out their problems. I feel like that is a level of maturity and humility that so often lacks in this sport. Usually it’s just “fuck that guy” for a good 10 years after a falling out.

That one came back to bite him in the ass. I'm going to guess it's one of if not the worst title defense in the history of the sport aside from guys that were injured. He had 4 podiums, no wins, and an average finish of 6.1.

Keep in mind Cooper did say he had the best off season ever prior to the 2022 season......Look, Roger cuts through the bullshit and all the juicy rationalizations riders have for not performing, and Cooper is a case in point. Truth bombs hurt all of us one time or another, but it's the truth, which is why it hurts after all. Who has left Aldon after having won a championship or 4 with him and kept on winning? Anderson? Nope. Webb? Nope? Shit Dungey was the closest to his old level after 5 years away for dang sake! I think...
