2016 SX Discussion

I've heard conversation coming out of animal pens that is more intelligent than what is going on in here.

Agreed. Also pumped to see Bradi "bouncing" up and down on TV.

Of course it was Audette down in the 1st turn, it was inevitable after I took him last minute in fantasy instead of Starling.

Most called it unrealistic in sim. I was saying it would be doable but who would want to do it. I guess Peick and Seely

You know, here most of these guys are the same age as the riders in the MXS championship and not a single one of them has said that the track is AIDS.

What the fuck was that????? Like, 5th is still really impressive for the field we have today, but he dropped the anchor harder than I thought he knew how to

I'll borrow the only thing I read (on Vital, of all places) that seemed reasonable, because the lack of competitiveness he had was...odd - maybe something happened to the bike in that Bogle fiasco through the first section? It's definitely disheartening to see him get pushed around like that. I mean, even if he was fading, show some fight!

Ugh, man, that sounds so fanboy-ish. But you get my point lol

They showed him in one corner out of his heat and the way he berm blasted it was the closest I've seen him to being at RV2 stage and that is the biggest compliment I can give someone. I am at a loss on what could have happened for that to happen though.

Can McElrath ever catch a break? After the first round of all terrible results, some not his fault, I was sure once the first turn crash happened it would finally be his week but then this freaky rear wheel thing happened.

Tomac needs to do a better job of picking up on the other riders lines. I feel like that has been killing him. Going wide after the on off section was costing him like 1/2 a second a lap.

At least he didn't push the front, that is usually what happens when he goes backwards.

This. I don't have the moto acumen to state without doubt that he was steering more with the rear, but it looked that way to me. In the heat it especially looked that way more than I've seen thus far this year. As soon as I noticed it I thought "hey, that looks familiar."

Now I'm just mad about having McElrath instead of Starling lol unless I get all of the top 4 points scorers, I will most likely bitch about it :D

I'll take 289 on the week, but it was a HUGE points week, so it's not as great as it normally would be. 4 dudes in 250's got max, that's nuts

I took Shane just hoping the bad luck was over, him running second I knew my points were looking real good then out of no where it gets him again. Atleast my riskier 450 picks paid off and got 131 there to make up for my "solid but bad" 250 picks and still get top 10, though with 215 thats crazy I just barely made it top 10. Considering the same point total would get me 2nd and 5th the past two weeks. :lol:
