Taking on the world?????? Don´t make me laugh. The only country who has ever had the balls to take on the world was my home land, the glorious Fatherland, the land of the Aryan warrior, the land of the greatest MX rider this world will ever see, the fastest man on the planet, land of the Dungey slayer, GERMANY. Yeah.

Clearly, Euromike is a Nazi idiot, but the B class comment was uncalled for, too. Great job, Team USA, but they don't make it easy on us. It would appear that MX is healthy on both sides of the pond!

On a side note, I wonder if we could convince Georgia Lindsay to come over and take Erin Bates' place....

@EuroMike--give it up, we all know you arent from Europe at all, let alone Germany. You are just a big fat clown, and a liar,
Remember you said if the USA won the Des Nations you would quit this site, so go away liar.
And I cant wait until Roczen gets on here and tells LiarMike to shut his hole like Musquin did, that was classic.

Wow...talk about a single line track....i like how they left Caravioli's bike just lying on the side of the track...So after watching that link of the entire moto, did Roczen cut the track or something???...He wasnt even close to Reed or Dungey and was battling some guy on a Honda....then they cut away to Pourcel for like 5 seconds and then right back to Roczen right behind Reed and he already had passed Dungey....just seemed weird he caught them so fast.....

I wish I could have gone to this years MXoN. Looks like the competition was really good as no one team dominated and it came down to the last race. More exciting for the spectators for sure. A big thanks to all the riders for their participation this year. Congrats to everyone who made the podium. Here's to another great year for moto in 2012 on both sides of the pond.



And lastly.......F&%k all the haters!

@whoops_blitzer, no one would have thought that and Aus has always had a team that can make the podium or win( if some toher teams incurred bad luck) your just a keyboard bandit. The end of that movie gives me goosebumps would be the most amazing feeling

You know what Claxton? Seriously, we all lost. Look who runs the world today and who ´s calling the shots in the USA, and you will see who the big winners were. The white man lost. The irony is, white men were used to defeat their own kind, and as many of those white men came from your great land, you should be doublely ashamed.
Are you guys never going to wake up and learn from your mistakes?

Oh boy, yeah mike I know of someone that talks the same way you do on this one. And I in no way want to sound like a racist, because I'm not, but if I am getting mike's drift correctly, this fella I know has pointed out to me that the white male is the only one in the world that doesn't have an established organization representing them. So far I really haven't seen the need, but as the world turns, I must admit I begin to wonder. He says we will become the minority. But aren't we here to talk MX? And to forget about the rest of the world? (not refering to geographical) Seems the rest of the world is a mess and MX is about the only thing that keeps on moving forward as it should.(although somewhat hampered by the economy) Maybe the answer here is to vote Roger Decoster for president and he could have goose as his V-P cause he can fix anything. Anybody else ever write a post- reread it, think ahh better not post this-then do it anyway? But Mike, this is worldwide and you are just as guilty as anyone, on this topic, as I mentioned earlier, we would all be in this together. How does that sit with you?

@Bucky394. I´ll go with Roger Decoster, but the Goose? Never. Just ask RD why not. LOL
OK, I know I´m being frivelous (for the less educated on here, ie, Americans, that means I´m not taking this too seriously) but I get your point Bucky.

Mike stop making Germany look bad. I know lots of good German men and women who would lap you on any track in the world. Does it bother you that there are so many US military bases in Germany? Are there any German bases in the states? The USA keeps you from becoming another province of China.

Does it bother me? Hell no sucker. Bring more of them over here. We just love it. Know why? because it´s American tax payers who are funding our security while our money stays in our pockets. LOL.
As for China, jeez fella, they are our biggest trading partners. You used to be, but you don´t make anything any more, so we now do business with China.
Think about it. You pay to keep us safe and we do business with China. It´s a win win situation for us as you suckers worry about homosexual´s rights ( I believe the Kenyan passed a bill today making homosexuality A for away in the armed forces) and other such irrelevant crap.
Hallo, is anyone paying attention out there?

@EuroMike--why dont you quit lying for once and admit YOU ARENT GERMAN!! You might be a Nazi, which by a few of your idiotic post it seems you are, but you arent German, its easy to tell by your post and how you write. We know you are a liar because you didnt quit the site when "WE" won the Des Natiuons like you promised. But you can quit lying, your not German, just a white Neo-Nazi imbicile.

@db200. A white neo-nazi imbicile?????? Why the ad hominem attack db? Have you so little between your hillbilly ears that you had to get nasty? Can´t you think of a better response than...WHITE neo- nazi? Try using your imagination next time. I´m sure you can do better than that because nobody, but nobody, can be that stupid.
And yes, I am German. I´m educated db, and that´s probably why I speak and write better English, and even !American", than you.

O K Mike. Have I gotten past your mean streak somehow? We exchanged our last two posts w/o insulting or being vulgar. Surprizingly! Although I'm sure we were both entertainened in the past while insulting each other.lol It was fun in a stupid way. But, I need to run this past you.On my mothers side, Her maiden name was Meerkins, her mothers maiden name was Freiheit (spelling?) My father also had a bunch of German in him. So that would make me somewhat German or actually I've always thought that I was mostly German. But I am an American because apparently for what ever reason my ancesters moved over here (and it wasn't because they knew someday the fastest mx racers would be from here LOL) So, what is your take on that? Am I (in your mind) "above".the others on here or am I the same. It wasn't my idea for them to come to America. And being of mostly German descent I like to have a beer or two now and then. I'm curious about the warm beer thing in Germany. Can't imagine it. There must be more to it. A certain brand or with a certain food, or is that just how it's done? What's up with that? Surprize everyone reading and reply like a nice guy. I dare you. come on Mike, you really want to be a nice guy now don't you?

Bucky, what do you mean I want to be a nice guy? I am a nice guy. LOL.
Did you know that 49% of all white Americans have German ancestory? That´s why the USA became such a great country. Sadly, the white American will soon become a minority in the land they created, and then the slide down hill will begin.
Warm beer? Not bad on a cold day, but I always chill mine in summer. Ever tried
schweinebraten mit sauerkraut. You haven´t lived until you get your chops around that classic German dish. Try it some time.

bucky394 wrote: 1:56pm September 22, 2011

I think you may be correct about the 49% thing, at least in my area there are lots of germans and no I never gave it much thought so I didn't know that. Warm beer sounds like heart burn to me! And no again on the dish that I have trouble pronouncing! As I look at it, I'm thinkin' it may be a type of Bratwurst with sauerkraut, but must admit I could be way off. The girlfreind makes a killer sauerkraut and jelapeno w/burger & stuff, people love it. I will get her to find it on the internet-she loves to cook and try new things, thanks for the tip. Later
