"Crash" Reed

James blew EVERYONE off at Anaheim 2 LAST YEAR. Yes. He hasn't blown me off this year. He's been really easy to work with and has given some very poignant and funny interviews.

As for being friends with Reed, not really. I've never had dinner with him or been invited to his house or anything like that. We have a good working relationship just like I have with most guys.

I loved Damon Bradshaw, RJ, etc. I have a feeling if most of you guys were around when those guys were, you'd have taken up badminton.

Mr. Consistency is known for his consistent ability to make supercross podiums. He is NOT known for crashing. But over the past three years, he has shown remarkable consistency for his ability to get James to hit the ground

2009 - A1: Chad fell in the whoops, knocking James down and out of the race
2010 - PHX: Chad rammed James in a turn, sending both down and breaking his own hand
2011 - ATL: Chad cut James off, causing them both to go down

By the timeline, we can see this trend is a fairly new development in the career of the Aussie supercross superstar. Is this an intentional new tactic, the "if you can't beat 'em, wreck 'em" strategy? If so, how long before bones are broken and seasons ruined?

So, do you think racers shouldn't touch each other out on the track?

So, what about the race when Hannah and Decoster went at it so hard that Hannah ended up DNF'ing because his exhaust pipe was crushed? Does that count as "a little block-passing"?

How come I feel like I am having a conversation with another Internet warrior who got beat up in third grade by the "Bullies" and is out to prove how "Smart" he is by impressing everyone with his superior whit and wisdom?

Really, bud it's a waste of my time.

Good luck with the anger thing....

Not at all.

There's a premise that there's a Natural Occurrence that we tend to undertand as the "Big Bang".

During that event, time comes together and creates an opening that is well beyond that of an implied "worm-hole".

In actuality(completely mis-used term!), the argument is based on a collision of "Universes"; which, is a collision of Time -AND- Space.

I get the feeling you know what I'm talking about.

Looks like we're gonna have to drag your ass to Pasadena...you seem to get some of this stuff.

Come on smart guy, you're better than that. The second post of this thread is you belly aching about how stupid the post is and it should be deleted. If it was about your opinion that you don't think the thread is worthy of your time, then don't open it.

But no, your answer is to delete it so no one else can see it - explain again how it is about you and no one else?

So if I have this right if you alone think a thread is not worthy it has to be deleted? That's a pretty big ego you got going there...

Your funny....

You guys can not possibly still think that Chad was trying to take Stewart out in Vegas? If he wanted to take him out, he would of hit him a lot harder. Chad simply showed him some attitude and made a statement telling Stewart he is not afraid of him. He knew James was riding tight. It was obvious too everyone. Take out move? It was not.

No, you wouldn't. You just don't want to ruin your feelings about the Reed/Stewart thing by acknowledging that racing like that is what makes motocross exciting.

Nerd you realise you're starting to fight the embers of a fire that has been raging for the past two days?!

Some people just want to see it as a deliberate, cynical take out move - and there isn't anyway to change their mind, no matter how much sense you may talk or examples you may show them.

There's a premise that there's a Natural Occurrence that we tend to undertand as the "Big Bang".

During that event, time comes together and creates an opening that is well beyond that of an implied "worm-hole".

In actuality(completely mis-used term!), the argument is based on a collision of "Universes"; which, is a collision of Time -AND- Space.
