Only $10 for all 2024 SX, MX, and SMX series (regularly $30).
Have Roczen, Musquin, Barcia, Baggett, Anderson and Tomac go compete in the GPs and do away with SX. That'd be a series.
Will never happen but I can dream.

That's the dream series right there. (Supercross is just shit, and it panders to morons.)
So...yo didn't type that? He suggested they all go to the GP's and you said "thats the dream series". Those are your fucking words aren't they? and then in your stupid reply you talk about a series without the top American guys, and now thats your dream? thats what you meant all along? ...you're so full of shit it's seeping into your brain.
nobody wants to race in Europe, or Canada, or Mexico that isn't already. don't ever forget that. I mean, Canada and Mexico. Really? thats your dream huh? good lord....
With that said I have a hard time not seeing a healthy Barcia, Roczen, Musquin, Anderson, Baggett, Tomac, perhaps even Webb (he'll come good eventually) also giving the likes of Cairoli and Herlings (and the rest) all they can handle on the AMA tracks. Fast riders are fast.
The problem of course is that the AMA riders listed are almost never healthy at the same time, or rarely...
And then there's the actual, I would say, even questionable motivation to be out there. Eli doesn't even want to race the MXDN anymore and honestly you can't blame him. Tony on the other hand talks about wanting to go a couple more seasons etc.
We've all said it a million times but 450 SX is just killing the sport. It's a boring meat grinder for the riders by the same point every year and desperately, DESPERATELY, needs shortening for the benefit of the riders and the fans. It's quite frankly painful to watch these days.
The 250 guys (both coasts) race half as much and are good every year.
But i agree with your point. Same thing with the USGPs. The riders are usually mailing it in at the last few races unless the title is still on the line.
With that said, Herlings Ironman ride was my highlight of 2017. That kind of a ride on a bike that didn't even have the same frame as his normal bike? It was cool to see.

Me personally.....as a fan of this sport , I cheer for dudes on both sides of the pond. And even though I am biased towards the American's ( because I want to see them do good! ) , I'm not taking cheap shots at the GP guys. I will be leading the charge for the shit talk on MXoN's day though! But until then......anyone who has a brain , and is a fan of this sport.....you have to give credit to those GP guys right about now!
Post a reply to: Bring Herlings to US full time!
