Love DV.
The sponsorship stuff is interesting.
I don't get how Mertz is trying to tell us the rosy picture on the sport sponsorship status like we don't have 30 years of that not happening. We literally just had a period of different sponsors come in with a few big satellite teams, H&H etc, and they all packed up and fucked off, and what's more, their competition didn't dive in and try compete at all.
And it's very well to say the energy drinks are dominating, but it's not like there aren't teams who are free and ready to go! Monster Yamaha/Kawi. Rockstar Husky. Redbull KTM. Suzuki and Honda are free, and there are 250 teams and the Nationals that would probably do unspeakable things for a massive outside the industry title.
Don't know where he's coming up with that at all... DV is right, the approach is all wrong and the sport is tiny with a bunch of problems... it's almost weird listening too a view selling it as nearly void of issues.
Can he be an ass sometimes....sure....who cares. He's got his fingers on the pulse of this sport more than most.
Don't like him....don't listen.
The Shop
On thing i always remember about DV. It was around 98-ish. We had the regional distribution for Engine Ice. I had emailed a few riders. DV was the only one to take the time to get back to me...
Thanks DV........ keep on keeping on!!!!!!!
Not trying to “cancel” him or say he should never be on or anything like that which is what a lot of people love to jump to when you offer any sort of criticism. Love DV, love when he’s on the show, but there are definitely areas he could improve on if we’re just being honest. The fact that he isn’t a yes man and has opposing views is what makes it a great listen. However, as a host or co-host you do gotta let your guests speak when they’re on.
- DV probably
I would rather listen to a passionate person I didn't even agree with vs a super PC person that is scared of offending people.
Imagine if a super chill non offensive person like Cole Seely was the guest. BORING
I already knew that he would push for Tomac on the 250 because of the thread title on here but I liked that he baited Matthes first by asking who he would put on the 250 if it could be anyone. DV could have just said it but that was the way to sell it.
He's not a guest you can have on every week but a few times a year and just accept that he's going to talk over everyone with gold for 5 hours straight is what we need and accept.
Equally impressed that motoxxx599 knew enough French from a school in Indiana to help out a young DV trying to buy spark plugs...
Pit Row
He also has an interest and knowledge outside of MX and SX, and it shows
I prefer to read buuuut just two times I have listened PULPMX show and it was because of DV haha.
He is great, he says what he thinks no filter, It´s hard to be like that in these times...
He gets passionate about the sport, that´s why he was like DUUUDE don´t try to sell me ideas or hope.. the same
was with Ruthledge wood or whatever his name is... and I aprecciate that.. that shows how much he loves and knows about the sport.
I´ll wait for the next one..
Feel like i'm taking crazy pills. Chevy, Mazda, Toyota, Dodge, Bud Light, Jimmy Johns, Target, a bunch of Casinos, a few telcos were all here... before, during and after energy drinks, and now they're not...
