Bubs out for Lakewood.

You came to that conclusion looking thru you highly trained medical eyes?

EVERYTHING in this thread and the hundreds of others just like it is pure, unadulterated speculation. There is NOT ONE opinion that can even be considered an "educated" guess. Sure makes for great internet fodder tho.

Bottom line? There are many amoung us that LOVE to see people fail. Simply really.

Lets try this for speculating. A cool day with an average track and he finishes both motos and does well. The KX250 keeps reasonable lap times throughout. A hot day and rough track or both and the lap times fall apart at the end, like that one moto Reed almost run him down from way back. The evidence clearly shows a lack of conditioning or a medical condition that surfaces in hot weather or rough terrain. So my educated guess is lack of conditioning based on what he said was his training method and what the stop watch shows consistently. The only people I love to see fail is the people I race against. :laugh:

There is a difference between learning the ropes and getting schooled. Bubba should try for 2nd and 3rd and actually finish some motos....

I guess no one remembers when RC came in the game. He was a ****e talking crashing, taking out punk. Then all of the sudden...after numerous entire audience boo outs, he is some kind of nice guy. The way I see it they were both at fault. RC should have know better than to fade left when someone is coming up on your left. If you do expect some type of contact. Bubba should have known better than to try and jump past on his left considering the track slightly bends to the right and its more natural for someone to fade left. Tough to think about that stuff at their pace though. Watch the vid and you'll see RC go from about 2 feet from the right edge to about 6 feet from the right edge. After they wrech the both go right indicating some forces at work perpendicular to bubba's flight pattern..ie RC's fade.

I remember it well when RC came into motocross in fact his first 4 years he won 2 125 titles and 2 250 titles. As for Bubba this is his 4th year and he will have only 2 125 titles to show. He was not a trash talker, nor did he take anyone out. He was boo'd because he left Kawasaki for Honda which was his decision not the fans. Did you every hear of RC crashing in the first corner??? RC has never lost any outdoor titles since he came into motocross. So if he were a crasher as you suggest then the other riders must have crashed more..

RC has crashed a bunch this year and last. In fact, the whole reason that he was behind Bubba at Unadilla was because he crashed. I watched him at the ATL SX with a strong lead go around a corner and just fall over...he crashed hard at Daytona. The difference is that he's not gotten hurt, by luck or by skill when he's gone down. He always gets back up and wins the race either because he's so far in the lead, or because he's so much faster he reels them back in and passes them. Looking at that video of Bubba landing on him, I'm convinced he must have bones of steel (or hard rubber). He is the best, but he still crashes.

Only two titles in four years. Yep, he sucks big time. :think:

Bubba is now out for Washougal too...

Intentional or not (I don't think it was), after watching that crash, I think he should be happy to be concious at this point. Glad he's not rushing the comeback. Both bounces looked like they could have busted his melon. I wonder if he's got a double concussion since he hit both sides of his head that hard?

I'm not sure what you were reading, but there is nothing in my post that alludes to wanting someone to fail.

One does not have to be a physician to form a reasonable opinion based on one's observations over the past year.

Yes, I would consider my OPINION speculation just like everything else posted on this forum.

Reading the variety of opinions and rants posted on these forums is what make these boards so popular and entertaining.

Simple really.

I would rather see RC healthy for the rest of the season.

Not me, I get sick of watching RC win almost every week. I'd like to see Bubba and Windham battle for first. (or any battle for that matter.)
