straight^ Started a new thread Does JLaw hold the all-time record of "Most Haters Proved Wrong"?
1/27/2012 2:20pm I mean, the dude's consistant. He consistantly shows up the naysayers, consistantly doesn't end up flipping burgers, consistantly "screws up" in the minds of republican fans, consistantly puts in better than expected results, consistantly remains cooler than all MX riders combined, and consistantly remains the same person he's always been, just like he's always said. Damn, what is that? Like...

straight^ Started a new thread Who's racing the US open?? Is it even going on this year??
1/27/2012 1:21pm seems like there's no talk. are any riders confirmed? Any information to let the fans in on? Any hype? Any riders talking smack? Anyone expected to break out? Any "journalists" interview anyone about this race? ANYTHING?

straight^ Started a new thread So Mike got the boot cause Tony can't respect The Man! (which means SteveM was right about Tony all along!)
1/27/2012 12:13pm http://www.pulpmx.com/content/excerpt-dmxs-show-roger-decoster Yet when Mike and Tony were on DMXS they both said the exact opposite of what The Man is now saying. ...on a different note, I sure am a fan of Josh Grant.

straight^ Started a new thread Lusk confirms what we already know...
1/27/2012 10:29am The laws of sport evolution continually raise the bar too high for 'old guys' to compete. This is true in any and all sports, regardless of how confident the 'old guy' may be. I suggested this in a thread a couple weeks ago, yet everyone continued to place Lusk in the main event and even in the top ten! Hopefully...

1/26/2012 10:39pm He's a gamer. He'll throw down with anyone, won't be intimidated, and will go for it. Can't say that about a lot of guys in that 450 main. Kid rides with his balls hangin out and I wish everyone rode like him. If ya don't understand, it's cause yer old and kinda douchey.

straight^ Started a new thread Pro motocrossers and mental illness.
1/26/2012 7:30pm It's never discussed, mentioned, documented or observed, and until this month's RacerX I'd never seen anything about it anywhere in the moto media, ever. In the little piece about "things you didn't know about Damon Bradshaw" it mentions he has OCD and its caused me to wonder if other pros struggle with similiar afflictions. In a sport which requires such...

straight^ Started a new thread Anyone know the history of the term "whoops"?
1/26/2012 6:27pm Sure it originated as "whoop dee doos"... but why? why do we call them that? Maybe it's what the old-schoolers would yell when they'd get all squirly? I have no idea, but when talking with non-MXers the term sounds pretty crazy, and I never have an answer as to "why we call em that".

straight^ Started a new thread The hopes and dreams of Canadian moto
1/26/2012 3:09pm Dean Wilson Canadians will say he can podium in SX, but really will he even be able to crack the top ten more than a couple times?

straight^ Started a new thread HGH is cheating, but nobody's willing to do anything about it.
1/26/2012 8:01am Seems like the whole damn moto industry are a bunch of insecure enablers. It's such a mystery to me why more people don't speak out against it. HGH dominates this sport yet there's some unspoken taboo against making any mention of it. Why is this so? Why don't we just call a spade a spade. PJ Larsen is a Goddamm...

straight^ Started a new thread The Straight^ Goods... what I got outta watching SX on speed.
1/25/2012 10:55pm Ralph and Jeff are the worst announcing team in sports. Do they think all MX fans are retarded, or do they just speak slow cause they're inarticulate rednecks? Do they state the obvious cause they think they have good insight, or just cause they don't really have anything good to offer? And what's with Emig saying J-Law's totally outta the...

straight^ Started a new thread So is JLaw gonna be the most popular rider in LA tonight?
1/25/2012 8:29pm I predict, yes. Unless he falls from glory by a takeout move or some shit. Either way we all gotta admit he's the man.

1/25/2012 1:03pm For that is when his dad will step aside. Damn, that's a lot of pressure. Tony also said he would step aside if he thought he was damaging Mike, but since Mike isn't flipping rental cars or doing drugs everything's going perfect. All other applicable questions to Tony were dodged on the basis of "not looking to the past" (which...

1/21/2012 12:24pm so I need to nail a top 10. I seem to suck at picking the 250s and I have a few questions to which any information is much appreciated... 1. Where will Morias finish? Does anyone know how healthy he really is? Does he have a full race in him? 2. Will Hansen make the top 10? if he does...
