Does Alessi cancel the Canada excursion?
So RV is out. Stewart is riding fast, but having consistency issues. Reed, Millsaps and Tomac will be recovering/building. Alessi is solid outdoors. You have to think they'd be temped to try.....
Dunge and Kenny will be strong, but it's a long season. Who knows if they make it through 24 motos.
If I had to bet, Dunge is the fav, but Alessi must be good for a few podiums.
Thoughts?

There is 6 in line before him, at least.
People were questioning if he'd beat Metty up there. Is Metty now front runner for the title too?
most likely the fav now
good luck to him,
be nice for him to have senior national title to his name

see 2013 points standings...
2013 he was 9th overall standing behind dungey who went 2nd o.a. by 278pts./ 334pts back from rv.....
I think a top 5 finish is a more realistic goal in 2014,had he stayed in states.
Maybe reading too far into this but..... I assume that this hints that the results in Glen Helen will determine the direction from there?
I was more going for the angle of the long term plan.
Also, I didn't mean this to be a comprehensive list of everyone's chances. Of course Canard and Barcia will be good. I'm just pumped for more competition. If we have 10 different winners I'll be stoked.
My two cents, for what it's worth...
I'm sure Jeff knows what mistakes he's made and which ones have adversely affected his brothers image. The whole laser thing got way blown out of proportion, if it would've been a spectator that had done it, it would've never have gotten to where it did. Was it right ? He'll no !! But I also think it was one of those things that a kid would do, not considering the consequences. Jeff has always been the goofy kid and Mike the serious racer. Had Tony put 1/2 the effort into Jeff, that he did with Mike, who knows what Jeff could've done. If you'd been raised as the second fiddle, you might be starving for attention too. Just jumping on the "Alessi hate club" isn't going to change anything. Mike has tons of talent, especially outdoors. Is he going to win Glen Helen ? That would be a tall order, considering who's racing, but it's not totally out of the question. His starts are good and he's always been in great shape. His biggest hurdle is going to be himself. He can be such a head case when he gets pressured. I've watched him basically pull over and let the front runners by this season. He REALLY needs to focus on what's in front of him, instead of looking behind him all the time. He instantly slows down, the second he starts looking behind. For the life of me, I don't know why he can't refrain from doing that. He should have a good shot at a title in Canada, maybe that will get his confidence back. He was almost untouchable most of his amateur career, even with Villopoto nipping at his heals. I've seen him have some great battles with Milsaps, Grant and Villopoto, from pewees through the A class
And secondly, I do care if Mike races at round one that's good info. I hope Mike does great, doesn't get hurt and has fun. The internet bullies on this board are "JACKED"!!!!!!!!!!

Sad to since he did well in SX this year... For himself... Except Ticklegate...
If he goes Canada gets it.
He performed quite well this year in SX, and Ticklegate was massively blown out of proportion.
Ultimately, the more really fast guys (and 800 is one of them) in our series, the better the racing is going to be for the fans.
How could that ever be blown out of proportion ?? He was trying to blind RV on the start of a national motocross race. MX is a multi million dollar business and you have that dirt bag jeff tryng to alter the outcome of a race! and that is just tip of the iceberg how about any one of a number of meltdowns on vital and the famous assault with a walmart rake. sorry but jeff isn't a kid who makes some bad choices, he is a full blown shit stain on the MX world. "starving for attention" well every time he melts down on vital he gets attention.
Who knows?
I would like to think you typed that yourself, but in reading some of the past 178 posts I am going to call bullshit.
If it was you, you would not have ignored lostboys819 comments and just posted PR crap.
