2024 Supercross Thread

Total clown. Can't stand the guy.

 

To this day I don't know how there isn't a weekly line to go beat the shit out of Barcia and Friese.......the AMA could even sell raffle tickets and make thousands weekly.

I usually dont care much for JT and Steve, but this was a pretty good podcast / Glendale look back. I wish Zach was this laid back on live TV:

Gonna be friggin 85/90 degrees during the day.

 

I'm kind of looking forward to finishing up Anaheim this weekend and moving on to east coast mx. Anaheim's been the most difficult for me to predict for fantasy supercross and the track is always over complicated imo. Also, looking forward to seeing Jett Lawrence back in the 250 mix.

I wish one was closer to me, would love to see them race in person... jealous of the folks here who have tickets this season!

 

I am debating on going to Atlanta. It’s my birthday weekend.

 

My son and I used to go to either Houston or Arlington every year. Can't make it to Arlington this year, though.

 

I would go every year, sometimes twice a year. We would get there at 12pm and watch practice and qualifying. During the breaks we would go into the pits and check everything out and a couple of hours before the race we would go to dinner outside of the stadium, then return for the opening ceremonies.

Motocross has been a part of my life for 55 years and is a huge passion of mine, even working for the AMA at the Glen Helen Nationals. We used to go to the local practice tracks in So Cal and watch the pros practice. I have not been to a race since 2019 and now have gotten spoiled by Peacock TV showing practice, qualifying and the racing live.

Probably start attending live events next year again, I do miss the sights, sounds and exhaust along with the monster energy girls.

 

You should go man that would be a great way to celebrate!

 

I've been taking my daughter every year since she was 10. She's 28 now. We've only missed 2 races, last year because of covid and when she was 14 because she was being a drama queen. Can't let those kids walk all over you!

I didn't think Friese meant to freight train Craig either. I think was an inexperience thing as you previously mentioned.

 

It's not that he lacks experience, he has plenty of it. I don't think he REALLY meant to take him out, either. IMO, he turns into this shitty rider when he gets around other dudes. Bubba did say Friese is dirty, although RC or even Fro won't say it on the air (btw, I wish Emig was still in the broadcast booth). They all know Friese has a history to just being shitty when he gets into a corner with his competitors. It's not like he's a D-main rider who happened to make the A. He's obviously fast enough to make the Main consistently. He always lacks courtesy in the heat of the moment. And riders and fans hate him for it.

 

I hear ya. I still think VF had full intent of stuffing CC and using him as a stopping point, but CC was carrying much more speed because of how he exited that rhythm section, and VF wasnt ready for it. VF was cross jumping and holding everyone up on that section all night because he wasn't tripling through.

I love Bubba, but he's wrong: Vince is a dirty rider and he is stupid.

 

I can't stand Friese, he is a dirty rider. What I don't understand is why Craig would even put himself in harm's way so early in the race. Craig should have had more patience, not saying it was Craig's fault, but he was pushing the envelope.
