all i have to say is wow. dodger stadium may be a hallowed ground in baseball but do people forget how the jets played at yankee stadium or the bears at wrigley, just to name a few. the stadium is a business. it is there to make money.

You put slutty looking girls in leather, and have idiots running around shirtless with tattoos all over and you can't see this guy may have a valid point?

Don't judge a book by the cover. Spend some time investigating what you actually writing about. As a decent journalist should. I think the WWE approach is a little left of centre but it's what the powers that be have gone with. Personally, I think it takes away from the sport, but that's just me.

Only thing I agree with is when he mentioned 'ear plugs'. You never needed them when it was all 2 strokes.
Take a hint AMA, and get this sound thing under control.

I can't stand people like that, not willing to open there eyes to something new, and simply think MX/SX is just a hobby filled with no good trouble makers who put no effort in what so ever. If the person who wrote this were to follow one of the top guys through the off season - and witness how much work and effort was to put into this - I'm pretty sure that would change their opinion.

Yes, we all know your average beer- guzzling baseball fan is the epitome of culture and refinement. Nothing against baseball fans, but it's just people.

This writer is just plain ignorant about all things sx. He obviously did no research before he spouted off.

Uh, no unless thats all you saw there. I don't mind seeing the hot women there but I think they were in lycra and denim. 95% of the people I see at the races look pretty much like you and me. What you talk about here are the exceptions to the rule. It isn't much different for a stick and ball sport. A murder at Anaheim after a game last year, not so far at SX. My son went to a playoff game last year, a man and his kid had food and trash thrown at him for wearing Cardinals shirts, before the game started. Are you supporting this "sports" writers opinion?

Please, when you say nice, be sincere and un-confrontational. The second you call someone a "fucktard, faggot, douche", you lose all credibility and look exactly like what racing fans of all genres have been typecast as.

I find it funny that anyone's surprised by this lol. Not saying he's right in anyway shape or form, but when you cover something that people find so sacred and hallowed with dirt, someone's gonna have some dumb shit to say. I was fully expecting to read something like this, somewhere. I do have to say that the average supercross fan is not the best ambassador to the sport tho, so I can see how that could be looked upon rather negatively.

I've been reading comments like this everywhere, but my experience was nothing like that haha. We got there at about 1:30, got in right away, parked, then walked right into the stadium. Perhaps it was just more crowded the later people showed up?

Leaving, yes it was crowded, but we know it goes there. There was a cooler full of cold beer waiting for us at the truck. We hung out and drank a few (except the driver of course) and decided to head out about 45 minutes later. Got out of the parking lot in another 5 minutes. I don't understand people who rush out of the stadium like it's a life or death situation. I understand if you absolutely have to be somewhere, but besides that it's a Saturday night and you just saw a great race, take your time!

What a condescending douchebag! I wish this guy had been the one to crash on press day. Reading that article infuriated me what is equally baffling is that Davey allowed this to be posted on here....did you even read the article? All That stupid ignorant arrogant "reporter" wrote were negative things about the sport the fans and the poor turf that had to be covered obviously he doesn't know anything about the sport bit to soundly trash us and sx/mx .... I would seriously kick this guys ass for writing something like this I don't care if he is the king of some foreign country or a prestigious "beat" reporter for the dodgers what a joke....as a reporter he should know how to have an open mind and some class when writing such an erroneous article ..... I plan on mailing him as well and it isn't gonna be pretty.

What do they show on t.v every time they can. A slutty looking monster girl. If you want to be treated proffesional look proffesional.

Something the sport falls short of.
