Haven’t missed watching a round since 01.
Tracks have never been this bad.
RC continually gets a pass for being the GOAT despite his (and I can’t stress this enough) terrible annunciation and commentary skills. My non moto friends could not stand 5 minutes of his commentary.
The riders interviews are robotic.
I understand this sport is for diehards but it’s never been so hard to be a diehard.
now for the outdoors and this smx shite.
Not sure how much longer I can last seeing these posts EVERY WEEKEND!!!
RC is not good, but I think I've noticed some minor improvement over the past couple years. It should be Weege and RC every week, with RC coached to let Weege do 80% of the play by play.
Doesn’t that tell you something - the sport needs to take a look at itself
"Rider interviews are robotic"
Well thanks to our fans anyone who showed character good or bad gets cut down, deegan and jett had the character and got shut down by us fans now we get their robot version.
Enjoy its what we wanted.

Yes, but we see this post every weekend...want do you want us to say. We all agree, we've run out of things to say and there's no need for another thread
When did Jett get shut down? You can't lie the "danger zone" was a little cringe lol
When he talked to Anderson, when he said MC 72 wins is a goal good to have ?
Have you not noticed his demeanour since the incident, he's been half way RV style ever since.
It doesn't matter if dangerzone is cringe or not its still outside of the normal which apparently we want but shit on it when it happens, now you got deegan doing his best dungey impression.
Next you'll be saying it was impossible to pass, even though Sexton tucked the front end in the first corner and was dead last...
but passed 4 riders on the first lap, and worked his way up to 6th...
before passing Webb for 5th and crashing...
Jett saying that wasn't "showing personality", people got mad because it came across arrogant and the riders took it that way too. Which he is. And for Deegan we probably haven't seen much personality because he hasn't been doing much in a season they were hopping to win the championship...
There's a difference between I'm going to beat McGrath 72 wins and 72 wins is a goal of mine.
It's gotten so lame it's hard to watch anymore.
All I said was people and the riders took it as arrogance. Which he can be...
Sounds like a “people and riders” problem.
US bias is all it is ( not all but the majority ) if Tomac won for example there would be no complaints it would be amazing , because the brothers walked it it’s ‘boring’ , plenty of passing opportunity’s look at chase .
I can always count on vital every single week to make a thread complaining about RC. Damn you boys need to LOCK IN. I don’t even notice the announcers since IM LOCKED IN!!
So true, people are focused on waiting for the announcers to slip up or stutter. I was locked into the racing and don’t recall any mishap with the announcers. But I bet if I watched back and purely listened out for it I’d find issues. Peoples narrative really messing with their own racing experience.
Let me guess: you’re favourite rider’s getting beat?
as opposed to Jett's?
Pit Row
Man US fans down bad.
“Euro” riders been dominating MX for last 20 years and now they dominating SX and US fans ready to quit the sport. 😂
How is it that the whole world could understand ”72 wins is a GOAL” while a whole English speaking country couldn’t?
Because you can’t teach stupid, they are born with it, doesn’t matter how hard you try!!’n
I’m an Aussie. Jett and hunter are my guys.
For a championship to go down to the last round I’ve never found myself so bored 5 minutes in consistently.
Look at my original post.
5 minutes into the main my non moto friends said the commentary was unlistenable.
if you think RC is fit to be the voice of our sport
youre accepting mediocrity.
I'm old enough to remember a time when my american fellas were proud of e-ve-ry-thing in their country -even when it was a load of crap- and we made fun of them about that.
Now this place is turning into a french forum: anger, complaints and whining all the time about almost everything. And mostly about things that many other people around the world would be more than happy to get.
My advice, Wix: be french till the end, go on strike.
Oh, you're Australian. I get it now.
Your non moto friends, the type of people to not be locked into the actual race? Of course they’re the ones most likely to pick up on it. I’m okay with it being mediocre, not everyone feels that he needs to piss excellence. He grew up racing bikes and is the GOAT, that was his thing. People would soon moan if he chose to stop announcing all together & had nothing to do with the sport. Have to take the rough with the smooth sometimes
Just like you.
Still, TBH, there was a heat where we had great racing on screen and RC was totally lost in explaining things most of us already know and others don't give crap about while his fella (who was it yesterday, Diffey?) was trying to talk about what was actually going on. The GOAT didn't let him interupt his speech and went on and on...
By the way, I'm always amazed by some tech insights RC gives: while every privateer has a remapped ajustable ECU, RC told us that apart from factory teams, the only thing you can do to tune your power delivery is changing sprockets, à la MXA. That was fun.
RC actually makes you appreciate "The science of Supercross"...
Yes everyone understands its his goal, nothing hard to understand there. All I said was people took it as arrogance, what is so hard to understand there? Did I not at all. He's said some arrogant stuff this year but that wasn't some it.
Impossible challenge: Be Australian and not meat ride Jett 24/7... GO
all these downvotes are from aussies no doubt...
