You're super talented and a good dude. Don't let other peoples expectations, or what you think their expectations are get the best of you.
You're young and finding your way. Do you think any of us had our shit figured out at your age? Looking back I remember trying to live up to expectations, my father, my education, my career. It was real tough for me. Mentally it was tougher on me than others. At the time I thought others didn't have "problems." I thought I was the only one.
Now that I'm a little older I've realized ALL my friends have similar emotions, it's just not really talked about. Everybody has their demons. Even the champs.
From the outside looking in you're doing great, anyone would be blessed to be in your boots. You have your whole life ahead of you, it's not just the next race.
I just wanted to throw that out there, some positivity on this weekday. Best of luck Joey.

Not really something to joke about, but I understand that some of you didn't have the context.
Be well, Joey - it does get better.

what’s your point?

I'd be pretty damn stoked ot see Joey step back into his groove and get his shit figured out. We all know he has speed: he just needs to put it all together.
That's what I'm digging about this year...there's SO MUCH talent out there. Tho, I'd be even more stoked to see BB4 backTF out there, too!

Is it time for some "WhereTF is Blake?" T-Shirts?
“I cant ride this fast for that long!”
Friese has been saying that to himself for a long time and doesn’t let it bother him.
Joey has loads of talent, and has shown that he absolutely can compete with the top 5-10 guys. I hope he gets the treatment and mental coaching he needs so he can get out of his own way, and perform at a level that reflects his true abilities.
And if you’ve looked at his riding this year (it’s been easy to over look him), he certainly has the speed. Some races (or part of), have been sneaky good.
Good luck Joey, hope you work it out.
