Who cares about L&M? What I would like to see is another write up from that cryass Brooks on how a lapper should act when the front runners are coming up on them.

Other than that there who really gives a shit about L&M???

I agree.


Team Drama Queen should look into hooking up with the Kleenex or Puffs folks as sponsors. Then each time someone on their team wants to cry about something during a tv interview they can pull out one of their sponsors tissues to dab at their tears.

I think everyone needs to quit worrying about who is and who's not going to be there.

If James and Chad are there then great, if not the racing will be good and we will see some new winners.


Win win situation.


BTW: I think RV is getting lost in the mix of all this drama and he might come in under the radar and surprise everyone. My guess is that he and his equipment will be better prepared than anyone else on the track.

Yep.

I could care less about L&M and any of that stuff. Im gonna go watch the race at Freestone regardless of who's at the gate. No single rider is bigger than motocross itself.

Jim, if Vitaldrive is any indication, the kid already is the second coming of Ricky Carmichael and Jeremy McGrath combined

I don't think so. It's been James this L & M that, they are racing, they aren't racing. Chad this Chad that.

I telling you that RV and his team will be ready and well prepared. I am not so sure about Stewart and Reed.

yep- with a little Malcom Smith thrown in for good measure

if you look real close you can see RV riding trials in On Any Sunday. He was pretty good, too.

I'm also pretty sure it was him who took out Mouse Mccoy at the end of the Baja 1000 in Dust to Glory.

Not this shit again.

1. SX = more TV exposure = more cash for sponsors, team and riders.

2. More cash has become enough cash to become rich, no need to do MX as well with all the risk, traveling etc involved.

3. Team L&M is a business. There only purpose is to do money, which happens to be in an area they like (I get the impression Larry and gang likes scooters). They not doing any MX isn't really a mystery or should come as a chock. They have always focused on SX.

4. James decided to do SX only because MX didn't add enough to the bank. Follow the money, occam's razor end of story.

Hey, if you had the possibility to do what James do, would you really do MX? This is a job for them, not a hobby. Doing the nats might be smart move since another national title will boost James value and boost his ego/pride. Face it people, RC had to fight to do the MXDN 2003 which should indicate what's this is more business, than some love for riding and competition.

Make sense in my rudimentary intellect.

Why protest L+M? James signed the contract, he knew what it said, and want the stipulations were. He wanted that deal, and he's gonna have to take some rubbing from the MX fans, so what he'll sleep well at night.

James saves face by blaming it on L+M, and L+M says it's a contract and no money in the budget. Bottom line is James is not racing 12 rounds of MX this year.

Boycott? Seriously? Man there's an awful lot of sniveling happening here. The only thing I'm seeing boycotted here is common sense.

What does Common Sense have to do with Posting Rules? Wink


Seems to me that the only reason everybody is talking about James doing the Nationals at this point in time is because he's having second thoughts about deciding to go SX only. I'm not a Brooks fan, but I don't see that being the fault of L&M or his contract. LB must be a bit uncomfy with the 'I'd like to but...' talk and that this keeps dragging on, that's likely not in the contract either.

It should have a lot to do with it. I'd be perfectly happy with half as many posts that were twice as interesting. Smile

I personally don't give a shit if James races or not... would be more interesting if he didn't and we get to watch RV & MA all year.

Just tried to make a point about James... I realize that is a futile effort.

I read that L&M Racing has always been a supercross only team, from day one. If their riders do race the outdoor series or a single outdoor event, it would just be an addition to the scheduled supercross events they have contracts to do. So why are people upset that they aren't going to race outdoor races? When I heard that James Bubba Stewart is even thinking about doing an outdoor race, I feel we might get more that what we were promised in the beginning. But I don't feel L&M Racing or James Bubba Stewart is not doing any except what they said they where going to do from the start.

The other day, when the rumors started flying around that Bubba was going to be at Glen Helen I have to admit I was excited and happy that we were going to see him flying around a national outdoor track and get more of him then what I thought I was going to in the beginning. But if he doesn't race outdoors, well than I'm just going to happy that Bubba gave us a awesome 2009 supercross series and leave it at that.

I'm going to go to Glen Helen and watch the races. Who ever is racing is who I'm going to watch. It's the outdoor national, support it.
