I think it's time...will someone please file a petition to have that idiot Ralph Shaheen removed from the commentator chair...maybe give him a job as a weatherman or something...

Great racing!!!

yea he is horrible. it was an exciting race, bubbles was making a ton of mistakes.

And you just gotta love the obvious competition that Shaheen & Emig are having to see who can have the blackest hair.

In a lot of the shots of shaheen, you couldn't even see his hair against the background.. What a complete Douchnozzle™.

And the comb over, it just tells so much about the guy, and Jeff?? Smoke another bowl, it will be okay?

I noticed while watching the 450's that they mentioned that Windham had a rock get caught in the sprocket, and that they needed to change that.

I wonder if that was the Honda marketing department in action..

After the practice session, I went down to the pits, Windham told me that he detonated his gearbox and that they had the bike outside at the truck putting a new motor in it. (I was sitting right next to the whoops when it went, sure sounded like gears breaking to me)

Must be that Honda doesn't want the public to freak out.

As a side note, the pits were lame as hell. Only Tedesco, Windham, Wey, Davalos, Pro Circuit, and a handful of others were inside. All the rest, especially the bigger factory teams were outside working out of their trucks and that pit required a hardcard to get into. SUCK.

I did get KW to sign my shiny new KW hat.. And Hotsauce on my ticket.

I also got to meet and chat with the lovely Miss Supercross. What a hottie.

my nephew & his friend with KW. Steven looks so thrilled to be there. Only slightly more thrilled than he was with Ms. Supercross.

I don't see why he gets so much flack. I personally don't have a problem with either the commentators.

I did not find Emig and Shaheen that horrible this time. I thought they were much worse during last week's live broadcast.

Larocco's track was tough and very entertaining. Lots of spots for the top riders to pass, even though it was narrow. It is amazing how deep into the field Chad and Bubba will lap on a tough track.

Bubba went down twice, did not ride near his best and Chad got a great holeshot. Props to Chad for pressuring JBS and executing his game plan, but this could be the only win Chad gets all year.

To me it looked like Jame's front brake lever hit the tough block on the tight corner before the finish and locked up his front tire causing him to crash the second time. Tough break after catching up to Reed after the first crash. He's obviously faster than Reed is to crash and catch right back up and pass him.

Yeah, I looked at the replay a few times and it doesn't look like there was any contact, other than his front wheel not contacting the rut properly. Bubba was just riding a bit flustered the whole time. I think he was freaked out right from the beginning that Chad got such a good start.

And go Alessi...not too many dudes can say they passed Bubba. Even if it was briefly.
