Would be nice to see him get one of the last 3 spots at JGR he was ripping after he turned pro.

Philthy has one of those spots...the other two spots are between Cunningham, Peters, and Bisceglia last time I asked...and only one of two spots is guaranteed to go outdoors.

The way it was announced is four 250 SX spots and two 250 outdoor spots. Philthy goes 450 come outdoors and Hill has one of the 250 outdoor spots. Meaning only one of the two remaining 250 SX spots will go outdoors. No when I asked J-Bone about that wording, that was the plan but it's possible the there could be a third 250 spot outdoors...but not guranteed.

^^^ That's exactly what I thought when the press release came out.

Are the 2 riders that are not going outdoors SX only or are they free to sign with someone else for the summer or go at it alone on any brand?

Re-read what I just posted...Phil goes 450 outdoors...

That means only one of the 250 riders isn't guranteed a spot outdoors. It depends on the contract I suppose and how the rider is doing. Maybe they have him test and play backup of if they don't need his devices I imagine they're contract will be over and they can pursue other interests. But, said rider might get a full year deal. Mitchell Oldenburg had a similar deal at TLD where he was SX only and got signed for outdoors if someone was hurt.

You hinted a few months ago that Crown may have shot himself in the foot per se, and that’s why he couldnt get a ride. Could you give a little more on that ML?

I just know a few guys at Team Green who didn't have much good to say about dealing with him. Not terrible but they weren't very enthusiastic either...

I'm not sure if it was Joey himself or his father, I've never met either, just going off their comments/reactions. I brought that up in the PC thread because I was pointing out there might be an underlining reason he wasn't selected over there.

Sounds like they didn't learn anything from the Allessis life experience.

Either learn some humility or be taught some humility!

I think Crown could beat peters and cunningham if there on the same bike and younger also. Kawi let's another rider go that could be really good indoors and out just like Jacob hays years ago he was beating bogle in amateur races then kawi just doesn't have anything for him when his day cimes to turn pro
and bogle gets a factory ride.
