Wat are u talkin about???RC was getting his a** kicked way before JS came in, and when js did come in he didn't win another race!! The last time he won a race was in atlanta,ga, that was 9 races lost after that. And if u watched the vegas event u would've noticed he said that he had no risk to take, he had no excuses and was gonna give it ALL he had....and wat happened?? Chad reed whopped his butt despite that JS didn't race cuz he got injured at the beginnin of the race. In supercross he was definitly not the best at the end of the season; he got away at the beginning because chad reed wasn't competition to him at the beginnin....but at the end, chad reed was whipping him.!!! In motocross right now RC is the man no dougth but the season IS NOT OVER!! a lot of things could happen.

very true ,that playing safe story is total bs, he just got his behind whooped.dmr you are on point and one of the few people i have seen in here one can reason

yeah chad got his head together about half way through and figured rc out and started handing it to him then, same the next sx season with bubba and cr gonna mix it up alot

yea, i wish that would happen now in motocross too, because i like to see competition, not the same guy winning it easy pver and over again...

Hey, Dominicanracer I bet you were not saying that when Bubba sandbagged last year and was winning. Remember Reed stepped up right away. I like competition, but RC has worked hard.

U could bet i said it, i alwayz liked competition. I would like Bubba to win cuz i am one of his fans but i would like him to work for it, in other words i would like seeing him get competition by Rc or any other racer and still win.

I watched Budds Creek on OLN and the interviews tell the story. RC's take on the incident, " it's just racing, I'm over it" and goes onto complement the other racers" these guys are going real fast. Chad Reed interviews professional" I just can't make those mistakes and expect to win". And heres Bubba, trash talking saying if had the 4 stroke he would be the best rider in the world and he isn't afraid of anyone. And I'm putting it mild, watch the the interviews. Bubba, please ride the 4 stroke so there will be no excuses for winning or losing. With power, the need for strength comes in, and conditioning will be a factor. Bubba is a world class rider, don't let this year ruin your fans for the future. Race hard, win or lose.

Agreed. Bubba is a bit of a hot head right now but he's still a 19 year old kid and kids that age think they're invincible. I'm hoping as he grows older he mellows out a bit as far as his ego is concerned and learns better sportsmanship.

I think bubba just needs to be more mature and stop making excuses why he pulled offor why he didnt win.(I beleive that ricky went through a stage like this a couple years ago were if he didnt win one race he always had an excuse but he's matured and thats just what bubba will have to do and i think he will) He might actully be dizzy idk but that just doesnt seem like him, he never pulled off in the 125s from what i can rememeber.Coming from winning every race with ease to basically lsing every race would be very tough. he just needs to relize that he's going to have to work harder to compete with ricky. I also think he will make or atleast he should make the swicth to the 4 stroke.

Even if Bubba could ride in front of RC, RC puts so much pressure that Bubba would eventually screw up.

In supercross, RC might have had a bad ending half of the season but since he came into the season throwing down he gained enough of a lead to screw up the ending half. All in All, he still walked away wiht the number 1 plate. And to be honist, I think he will do it again in the 2006 Supercross. Not because he's the fastest Supercrosser, but because he's the smartest and most consistant. If RC dont get it then CR will, but I think Bubba will make a few costly mistakes.

Bubba makes mistakes because he puts too much pressure on himself to prove he's the best. Pressure causes you to make mistakes. But, even still.... It nice to see Bubba out there and I hope he can stay healthy finally. He is a great rider, just needs to get his head screwed on right!
