Just watched the show and she was great.Kind of but not really surprised that they only mentioned X games and not her 3 AMA WMX national titles and the current series.

I am just glad she is exposing the would to motorcycles. Unlike her I was not born deaf I went deaf and nobody but GOD knows why. So I am very proud of her!

@Welker - I've heard bad moonshine can make you go deaf. Or is it blind? Just saying.

I guess this is the week for Women's MX. They had a little segment in the CBS broadcast, and then this. I thought it was strange that they didn't even mention Patterson on the CBS bit, considering she's mopping up again this year.
