Personally, I have a very hard time believing Bubba Jr and Bubba Sr. would pull the plug on the entire SX season over a small percentage increase in total income (is 200K even 5-6% of his total yearly income? I mean it is not even 15% of the contract eluded to...).

I agree w/ FlyinBrian in that these guys live for the chance to win a championship. Anyone remember the SX-only rumors for JBS a year or two ago?? And now the rumor is he won't race the SX series over a 200 grand discrepancy from a sponsor who is likely behind Kawasaki and Fox in actual dollars as well as obligation? It just doesn't add up.

It does seem something strange is happening w/ Monster and JBS due to the fact that he hit the podium in PHX w/o a can of Monster in his hand. It doesn't seem like it could be an over-sight... but, if something is askew in Monster/JBS land, I can't believe it is over the amount and time stated... and I can't believe he'd cash out the whole season over that.
