Yeah both Ralph and Jeff both had cringe worthy moments again tonight. And spare me the “you try doing their job bullshit.”
Put Jenny and Jamie little in the booth together now that’s a team.

Daniel Blair is a rising star. Julianna Daniell is doing much better. Ralph knows the bike colors pretty well and Emig try’s to take away Plessinger’s red plate...

And I think I heard Ralph say that Hill was the series points leader with the #1 plate.
Had to laugh though when he said Plessinger made a big mistake by not slowing down and waiting for the timer to go to zero before the finish line. It’s not like he was racing or anything with two fast guys only a second or two behind him, wtf... Emig at least corrected him on that one.

Fuckin Marvin's cats but no real race, technical or privateer insights... Replays all the time and missing the fucking action. Surely Feld must think if they improved that there they could help their product...

It was pretty piss poor the amount of passes/battles we missed. Replaying things 5 seconds after they happend says a lot about the attention span singletons have these daze.

It was a pretty dismal night for Ralphy. Emig was ok, Blair does a great job. Juliana was much better tonigh, normally it’s painful to watch her. Jenny is always good.
Ralphy needs to find a new line of work. Replace him with Blair and you could keep the rest in place.

Hey Ralph we know the fucking colors of the different manufacturers. Also why do they show crash replays when there's a battle for the lead on lap 19 of the 450 main?

Cats. Like fuck me. That's where we're at. Oh and find a chick who rides for a halftime segment.

And again. Emig looked baked. But, that’s not a big deal. But he does look like he smoked a giant bowl. ?

Just let Langston and Weigandt do it, they know their stuff and don't dumb it down.
If Langston messes up at least it will be funny.

He's coming inside and up his behind is getting kind of old but it's getting less noticeable due to yelling at the fucking TV to show the actual fucking racing!!! Not that I'm angry or anything.
Hahaha, at Lurch's monster jam/wwe or f or what ever the fuck (sorry Weege and Tyler) call before each start.

If you think Ralph is bad now, you should go back and listen to some of his “rookie” races in 2004. It was so bad that it was entertaining.

It's embarrassing at this point.
Ralph is just horrendous and has been for years. It's time. FELD, one more format change please.

Emig has been a dbag for a long time. Personally seen him treat former badass pros like shit, as well as fans. Dude has serious ego issues. Stopped using ODI when they started putting his name on their grips. I hope the best for people so hopefully that 10ft pole up his @ss doesnt hurt when it comes out.

Tonight was pretty bad. When you don’t know who has that heavy red plate it can be embarrassing.

I wish they would effing STOP cutting away from bar to bar racing for whatever! At least leave a camera on leaders and put in a separate PIP.

The producer needs to be sacked. My brother and i were watching position graphic on the left hand side looking at the gaps between riders getting closer and closer but instead we watch someone riding around on their own. Next thing you hear the crowd go nuts so they have to show a replay of the pass. The fact they have a replay shows the camera was watching the action, just the dip shit producer couldn't figure it out.

If their hands are tied with having to show the leader right as the race ends, I don't like it but I understand the obligation. Just keep the camera on the battles as much as possible, which it seems like they at least try to do. As for the booth, I'd go into my own pocket to get Ralph outta there. Probably a really nice dude, might even honestly like the sport, but he's just gotta go. Way too dramatic, way too cheesy, just not good. We don't need an announcer to scream at us every lap about how exciting the race is, we already know.

Can we start a petition to have Ralph and Jeff replaced with Jennie and Daniel? It’s time for new blood in the booth. And teach Julianna a little more about bikes and SX and make her the pit reporter. New team, new vibe. It’s time.

It’s really harsh but the network need to let them go. Just tell them it’s time for a change. There may not of been better options 10 yrs ago but there are now. Guys like Weege and GL, Jason Thomas, Matthes, Daniel Blair- they all provide more depth and insight to the sport. People that love the sport want this. To the casual fan Ralph and Jeff probably seem ok.
It’s becoming a joke the amount of mistakes that get made and I spend half the show shaking my head.
We’re due for a change, hopefully for 2019.
