Sir Frank,
"Europe is not the world either btw."

Perhaps not, however it encompasses a broader spectrum of countries than the 'good old' US&A.

"AMA is the best SX/MX in the world, full stop."

In your OPINION, which you are entitled to. As long as you realise that many don't share it. BTW, Maybe SX.

"Jeremy McGrath is the GOAT of SX."

I, for one, share your OPINION.

"Ricky Carmichael is the overall GOAT. No questions."

I actually think Everts is, because of his consistency over long period & his recovery from being psyched out by Tortelli, years ago. It was a huge effort to come back from that, in my OPINION!

"Good luck to all nations in the competition!!!!"

Something we agree on :)

Very surprised to see comments about AMA not being a "world championship"......

Europe is not the world either btw.

AMA is the best SX/MX in the world, full stop.

Jeremy McGrath is the GOAT of SX.

Ricky Carmichael is the overall GOAT. No questions.

Good luck to all nations in the competition!!!!

Ricky is more of a GOAT than Rossy. i would like them to do a supermoto race tar and mud, just to make it fair. and whach Ricky piss all over him. we all know that top moto x rider have more talant than moto gp guys. how many hours a week does rossy ride his M1 compared to a moto x rider. alot of the superbike riders started at moto x, and then picked an easer option.

To properly judge Carmichael, great rider that he is, he would have to have ridden a full season in Europe, not just a one off like the MXDN. Many yanks of similar ability have tried & come up short. FIM motocross is still the real world championship, not the US&A (Thanks Borat) & all this talk of feral animals will not make one jot of difference. :)
