I agree. I loved AT&T, Oakland is a pain in the a$$.
On a different note, why does everybody hate Bubba? I know his rivalry with Chad a few years ago was mostly his fault, but the guy was a breath of fresh air after the Ricky Carmichael decade. And he's awesome to his fans.

When james was on an 85cc we were racing at the same time.His dad would walk around the pit's so cocky.james sr. was always demanding something from somebody.And james jr would taut the other riders while they where racing. As he was passing them he'd whip his bike and point at them.james jr was fast, his problem was he raced like the gangbangers played basket ball.He was always trying to prove he was better than the other racers.All he needed to do was just win the race,and keep the trash talk to him self.Once he hit the Pro's I think the sponors shut him up.

I don't hate him. He responsible for some of the best "wipe-outs" I've ever seen in the 40+ years I've been following the sport. :D

That sums it up right there.....

I wanna like the guy, i love the fact that a minority is doing very very well in that sport. I love the diversity...What i dont like is when he gets beat, like saturday, he always coming up with an excuse, saturdays excuse was "man, i've been battling this cold, but no excuses, but Chad was really fast tonite". Just once i want to here him say, "the dude was just faster"..

But hey, were talking about him, right? isn't that what his sponsers want? he's not washed up yet.

But this is going to be a great year, i hope all the main guys can stay healthy...

As good as Bubba is, I just cant like him. Nobody wants to lose but he's a sore loser!

Scott your faulting a kid, thats parents were not a good role model. He had a lot of growing up to and his switch to Suzuki was the best decision for James. He has grown to be a adult, matured into a role model.

Chad Reed had the same attitude when he raced RC. He too has grown in maturity.

Alessi, same deal.

My point is dont fault a kid, he is taught by his parents.

Even as a kid you should know better than to taut other's around you. I would never let my boy's act that way toward's other racer's.

I have 4 tickets to Met Life Stadium, first time back in the north east since the early 90's. Can't wait to see these guys tear it up.

My point exactly you didnt let your boys do that. Dont fault the kid.

Growing up in Southern Cali, I grew up riding and following SX and MX. I'm a huge fan, watch every race. I try to make it to the races themselves, but it gets expensive sometimes.

I like Stewart...the dude can ride, but I'll admit the last few years he just can't get consistent. He either wins, or crashes himself out. More often the latter.

I'm happy to see Reed up there! I was also really blown away to see Brayton cleanly pass Villopoto and hold him off. I like Poto, but it gets boring when he gets the lead and checks out.

So far this season is turning out to be a good one!
