I must be living under a rock because I honestly have no idea who he is. Ex racer? Moto fan? I know he's a journalist but what's his background.

I've noticed he's not too well liked on here. What's the story?

I don’t really know his background either, other than he likes to chum the water when it comes to US vs Europe MX.

I’m old enough to remember when Geoff would post here... under his actual name... and the shit storms were biblical.

Wow, the times are a-changing. Meyer is a European journalist who used to engage in some pretty epic debates with US fans about the US vs. Euro riders. He is not exactly well-liked by many over here.
I'm not sure what the Keefer reference is here, but I was shaking my head listening to the latest Pulpcast when he was saying the US riders at the MXDN rode badly because they were saving themselves for Supercross. That theory doesn't make any sense when you consider the zeal with which they came into the event, unless that was all fake, which would suck even more.

MXdoushe used to come on here and post just to stir shit up and would outright lie and start rumors just to see what would happen it's what got him banned...I will not click on his dumbass website to this day...but we still have MXdoushe Jr who took excerpts from multiple Kroc interviews to try and create an issue between Kenny and Herlings....I won't read his biased shit either...

One of his US counterparts actually runs the series, the amateur feeder series and its main magazine, but it's probably considered trollish just to point this out, especially considering this place is watched like a hawk for such provocation. (I like DC btw) Laughing

I don’t think it’s trollish, those are straight facts.

Meyer is actually being reasonable in his comments- I don't branch off from Pulp much as far as podcasts, but this is a good one. He did say he expected Barcia and AP to win their classes easily. He's got some good insights actually, like a certain rider sitting in front of a gate, giving the impression it was his. Grinning

Option #1.....listen to Geoff's podcast.

Option #2.......Peel my own skin off , roll around in honey and a huge ant nest , pour gasoline on myself , and right before I light myself on fire , gouge my eye's out while being raped by a buffalo.

I'll go with option #2 , Alex.

Jeffro, I am good friends with Geoff and have known him for quite some time and while he is no doubt a shit stirrer at times, it's just all in good fun for him. As you will hear in our podcast, his real opinions are actually quite fair. Even though I've always known once in a blue moon he can be diplomatic in his opinions, I actually expected to argue with him a lot more than we did. LaughingWink

It's funny in here
Geoff Meyer= Satan himself that doesn't provide anything just trolls and he'd better not show himself or else
Big Lenny= Just misunderstood, once you get to know him he's a great guy with good opinions

If you ask me they both posted the same kind of bullshit..

He had all the excuses you could think of.

"The euros had a home style track advantage"
"The Americans do go to win or care about winning its just practice for them"

I would like to hear Plessingers thoughts on the last one.

yeah you see "stacks on the mill" mentality on a lot of forums..

one guy doesnt 'fit the mold' a few suposed heavy hitters on the forum dont like him and all the weak cnts crawl out to try and give him a kick...

its grade 5 level bullying and yet grown men are only to quick to try and "get one in"..

i cop plenty but idgaf, ive got the kahoonies and the background to stand by what i post...and although childish of me as well throwing shit on the plethora of dumb fcks here is good for a laugh..

Yeah Keefer needs to travel outside his bubble. Great guy and I agree with a lot but not all things. But damn I couldn’t listen to that episode of Pulp. First time I’ve turned it off.

He is a fuckwit though.

Edit: MX Goff is who I am referring to.

Edit Again: I meant to spell it like that.
