Yes Burn, that IS funny and strange.
I've noticed that whenever the announce-a-tards refer to a 2 stroke like the 125's they mentioned at Hangtown or the 250's this time at Freestone, they ALWAYS couple the mention with a derogatory term like "little" or "old". At the same time of course, favorable words and phrases rain down from the announce-a-tards on the farty 4 strokes even as they give up their last farts and die along the side's af the track like sick elephants. We endlessly hear things like, "Big 450's" "So Powerful" "Such Roost" "So Much Roost" "The Roost coming off these Big 450's can take you right off the back of the bike!!!"...
It sounds like something they've been coached to do, so that the broadcasts can present the slant the series sponsors and factories desire.
Truth is, I've never heard so many excuses being made for factory race bikes. What a pathetic bunch of FOOPERS we've got running around out there now! I feel sorry for the suckers who'll fall into buying one of those rolling junk yards because of the bullshit they see on TV this year.
Thanks,
Jim
