I doubt they really care too much what Mr Cool "Brotocross", & the d-bags on here have to say about them. If they do they should consider the source. I bet 98% of the "contributors" on here, couldn't qualify for a SX main with a 2 lap head start.

Bradshaw would punch you in the ovaries if he knew you were running a picture of him for an avatar.

As I said in another thread, with 4 of the big 5 out....there is some serious podium opportunities available to guys that wouldn't otherwise get a sniff of the podium (like Alessi), and-as ocscottie pointed out-the bonus money that goes with it.

And on the drama, I think the Alessi's finally got a set up they can work with...a team that provides bikes, transportation, and a pit....and then gets out of the way and lets the Alessi's do it how they want to do it. Factory teams aren't so hands off, and that causes Drama with the dad.
Your last paragraph is spot on.

Someone at the beginning of the year said the exact same thing about the situation. It was something to the effect of "the Alessi's got their sugar daddy and now they can go about business the way they want too....if they cant make it happen now, they never will" and at the time I thought it was a very well said. Im glad to see it working out. I expected it too.

What the hell does it matter if we could qualify for a main event? That's like saying you have no right to criticize the president because you couldn't even run your HOA, let alone a country.

Speaking of the President, I think this is what they call flip-flopping in the political world.^^^^^^^

Yes, you are a wiiner...you have beaten all the other riders in that race. Just because the other riders could not race is irrevelant.

Are you faster than those riders who didnt race? Who can say you are not faster...although the likelihood of you being faster (and therefore capable of beating them) is low if you have raced against them in the past and havent beaten them.

Or does that make too much sense?
