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...

Ricky Carmichael was the same way, Ryan Villapoto is still that way. Maybe not the taunting, but they always had an excuse for why they didn't win, had no personality on the podium, and didn't give a rat's a$$ about the fans at the autograph booths. Sponsors made Ricky fake it near the end of his racing career, but Villapoto is still the worst. At least James is friendly to the fans. That's the second most important thing next to winning races. Most of his trash talk is in good fun too, similar to McGrath or Emig in the 90's.
