Any update on Jason?  Seems like a big story.  He's a former champ, bad dude on the bike and has (or had) a decent fan base.  Hope all is OK with him and this is just stupid stuff.

Family matters deserve privacy and are none of our business.

We don’t have to know what happened or is happening, but it would be nice to know if he is planning to race this weekend. Fans making their picks for the weekend would be better knowing if a top 5/6 rider is or isn’t racing. Edit to add: really didn’t see a simple mention of fantasy would turn into people claiming I was demanding his personal info for my fantasy team.

No mention of anything is a little strange to me. Makes me feel like it’s less of a family emergency and more of a pissing match with Sexton sniffing around the team. Edit to add: This is now a week old and I’m now leaning even more towards thinking this whole thing is all about the contract.

I would be terrified of this man on the track if I were Sexton.

Andersons already on probation. Thinking he knows that he needs to watch himself.

My buddy was on track walk in Seattle and said he talked to Anderson. After track walk he announced he was out... It seems weird...

Nah...Anderson has been on the other end of so many take out moves, and I imagine he knows how to take it as well as dish it out. For him to do anything really stupid to Sexton would be out of character.

Family matters deserve privacy and are none of our business.

When you pursue a career in the public like he has and your salary and livelihood depend on fans, You understand giving up a level of privacy is part of the game. Our business or not is irrelevant..

Fans want to know what happened…let’s not pretend that is unreasonable.

Obviously it was an urgent situation as he was at the stadium. Doesn't seem that weird

I wasn’t planning on ever admitting it but that crossed my mind too. I doubt it though.

That doesn't mean his family matters are or should be public.

lol “we need to know for our fantasy pick and they have to give us a week heads up!!”  We should start fining riders who get hurt after the start of the season because they mess up fantasy that way.

You do know what happened, he had a family emergency. That's all fans need to know. Not like they said "unknown reasons"

Just because he's a public figure doesn't mean he needs to disclose family medical/loss/hardship details. So much entitlement these days.

I just hope and pray all is okay with whatever happened.      It worries me that it's been "silence".  

The fans are with you JA21...

Like the guy said above he told you family emergency.  Does he owe his fans his daughter and wife's privacy? 

People are so nebby about everything when its none of their business. This isn't an attack on vital its neighbors, co workers, and friends.

Give the man his privacy. Maybe we’ll find out soon, maybe in the future, maybe never. 

Says the one closest to the source.

If you won't spill the beans then we'll just have to beat it out of some of his other facial hair... gay or not.

He’s races motorcycles - what about that makes it so damn important to know his personal matters? How entitled do you have to be to think you have a right to know everything about a guy just because he’s a motocross racer and you like watching motocross racing?

And he already took a minor shot at him the 2nd main of the triple crown. He could have really got him then if he was feeling some sort of way

I think his fans have some concern. Imagine a quarterback in the NFL leaving the stadium just before the game started and nobody knew anything other than “family emergency”. I think we were all concerned and worried about his family. Then you’re halfway through the week leading up to the next game (or race in this instance) and there has been no update on status of any kind. I think fans in that realm would be pretty damn curious too. 

I hope his family is okay. I’m a fan of his. I’m not searching for details of the man’s life, just curious if he is racing. I would understand if he said it is going to be a while or even sit the rest of the series. I just think it’s strange to make no kind of update whatsoever by this point. Just my shitty opinion I guess.

You all claim its a personal/private matter but immediately clicked on this thread knowing exactly what it was about because you wanted to know ..

There’s a difference between wanting to know and thinking he has an obligation to tell us.

I don’t think anybody has said that he is obligated to share anything. Just curious.

News flash: no one GAF about your fantasy league bullshit. I’m so tired of “so and so ruined my fantasy picks”…it’s almost as bad as the Flight Sim warriors who chime in on pilot forums having never been in a damn airplane.


Oh, and get off my lawn.
