"Mr Burns looking lady" lmao you are wild man 😂
What an old bag 🤣
That shit cracked me up. 😂😂😂
Sounds like the riders need a UNION.
Unions aren't what they should be either. Look how much union reps and all that make. They'd fight for Davey and fire people like Chris
Nooooooooooo unions!
sooo.... legalized mafia?
communism.
If you guys had any understanding on how a rider is paid from a factory team you would know they are each independent contractors. No union. Someone on here might say they could form a rider group that would fight for their safety concerns, purse money, etc. but they could have done this all along and they haven’t. I think the riders probably do have issues with many different aspects of the sport. I’m not hearing them bitch moan and complain like Cooksey. The truth is from privateer to factory rider they continue to sign up to race all these races and we the fans are entertainined.
Well said Cooksie!! They can’t stand the truth, so keep shining the light! It won’t be long before major change happens!
What a joke! It's going to cost me $75 Australian dollars to watch MXON? What an absolute disgrace! Cooksey is right, they are laughing all the way to the bank.
That's how I watched the whole SX, MX and SMX events in full no cuts. Zero euros
$30 au dollars for me mate 👍
Have you seen the ticket prices? 😳
Dude if you have Stan account add sport on and it’s on the MXGP part in Motorsport, do it for the konth. You don’t get all the qualifying races but you get the 3 Sunday races.
$24.99 NZ for MXGP-TV des Nations 3 day package
At Pala, I paid $70 for entry and $20 for "parking." What a load of shiittt. Why did I feel that way? Cuz I KNEW that the riders were not getting their fair share of...anything.
And that's without a pit pass
I want to watch the race too but not paying $39 USD. Hope to catch it on the RUclips’s later
youtube premium has cbs sports i believe, just do the free trial then cancel after nations
@@doglover136_ shit that’s not a bad idea. We did that a few years back, subbed to Hulu to watch the superbowl and then canceled right when the game was over 🤣
It's also on CBSHD Sunday on DirecTV.
Dailymotion... You can watch it few minutes/hours after the motos in a pretty good quality 720p for free.
I'm with you, I damn sure wont pay crazy money to watch anything. I will wait for a rerun or just high lites will work for me...
It's a shocker that the AMA says they're broke when they clearly lie through their teeth considering the tax video you did. It's a total shame none of that money goes to the things you mentioned (flaggers, extra bonuses, more sponsorships, etc.). I always thought it was because they were being too picky about who can be a sponsor in this sport.
Good stuff as usual, Cooksey!
I used to reside very close to Matterley Basin and frequently visited the motocross GPs there. It is a stunning track, and the region has a rich history that dates back to Roman times and even earlier.
Back then, I used to pay about a £20 entry fee that used to get me into the pits, where you could interact with the riders and mechanics and get right next to the start line.
Now, the greedy mafia mob wants me to pay £120 just to get in.. I can't get anywhere near the pits unless you pay extra, and as far as getting anywhere near the start line, that privilege has been taken up by the VIP tent...and you've guessed it, that's extra bucks too.
If I wanted to do what I used to do a few years back, it's now going to cost me £900! You've read that right, yes, £900! And that's just for me, no family, just me alone. Absolute daylight robbery.
What a bloody disgrace, it's got wey outa hand long ago!
PROMX here in Australia is still pretty reasonably $ to go & watch 😃
Maybe chase was correct. The top riders need to come together. Can you imagine deegans reach promoting the riders union!!
I wicked love this sport and I would love to support it and I mean the
riders who are the ones putting their life on the line to give their fans something incredible to watch. Im not paying 40 bucks to cheer for my country when It should be free to watch considering I've already paid peacock for Supercross and Outdoors. If most of the prominent rider's took a stand or strike. They would have NO CHOICE but to meet their demands.
MXGP riders boycotted a qualifier race two years ago, and infront just made the qualifiers pay points to prevent them from boycotting it.
sounds like we just make up our own new series and remove them altogether, dont need mainstream t.v. anymore
Imagine if the riders could wear gopros and Livestream while racing , and have it on twitch where fans can donate
We started playing a drinking game on how many times you said huck, Finn?
its so wrong that these promotors are living in the past just to line own pockets.. look at other sports , crooksey is 100% on this one
The show shouldn't have to pay for the show, It's the same in off-road racing.
It's incredibly satisfying to see such sleazy people being outed in real time. Just be prepared, Cooksey, for them to pull every trick in the book in order to silence you, and a lot of those tactics will be meant to intimidate you physically. I've seen it before - when their racket is in danger of being exposed and they think their gravy train could be coming to an end, they'll do whatever it takes to make it stop.
Feld has most all the stadiums under contract, think Monster Truck, SX that's why other series can not compete. Stadium Super Trucks found this out the hard way.
I was excited for Stadium Super Trucks when it started up, and was super bummed that they stopped doing stadiums and became an undercard for IndyCar. I don't know much of the details, why did they stop doing stadiums? Was iit feld?
Get'em Cooksey. I'll watch your videos and the Deegan's but I'm done with that bunch of crooks. I love this sport but I will have no part in supporting them. Keep it up. Your doing good work.
0bummer got installed into the WHITE HOUSE & I spent $25K on projectile launchers, projectile reloaders & 25 year food. After going to live MOTO from the early 70's from HangTown to Carlsbad & SaddleBack, all the SX races on the west coast & the MXoN in 87 at Unadilla, USGP's, World Speedway Championship in the birth place of SX, the LA Coliseum, races at the Rose Bowl & then they started putting it on TV & no riders got a raise 7 I had to stop going to the MADE FOR TV LIVE SHOWS that were being sent out over the air waves & SOME UNKNOWN GANGSTERS were TAKING ALL THE $$$$$$ so I stopped going & handing over my $3-500 spectating dollars every year, PERIOD!!!
Totally agree... Teams and riders are getting played to pay!
1:20 - What a nice jewish family.
Have you tried interviewing team, owners, and management of teams on this subject and getting their perspective?
Great video and way putting things
Thanks!
As an American that attended the race, all I gotta say is thank god it's in America next year! 😂
This is why I don't race too much drama and especially local district racing they rarely enforce any rules. I just ride like a Moto bum lol kinda like a Ski bum but with moto.
A couple of Nascar teams sued
Back in the day, riders in Europe used to get paid start money just to show up and race. Pro riders, especially those of some fame, should NOT have to pay entry fees! Entry fees are for amateur events, amateur racing. It’s appalling that professional racers have to pay the promoter (who is making😅 money off of them in the first place!) to then be the stars of the show. It should be the other way around, riders should be getting paid to show up.
Tom Sawyer was painting the fence not Huck Finn. I get what you're saying though 😁😁
He didn't say that, you just didn't listen
And it was Mark Twain that said, “never let the truth get in the way of a good story”
@@bdhp7692 NO he said Huck Fin
@@andygyz122 Out of context yes he said "Huck Finn" but he didn't say he was the one painting the fence
Tom Sawyer was supposed to, but Huck Finn didn't either lol
The Blackwater was awesome. If you have not seen it, I think there is a few races on RUclips
As a retired racer long ago...you now have my support !! Chris..dont let off !!!
More money in the pot means less control.
You could look at almost every industry in the US find far worse corruption. But glad your dialed in on something you love.
Look into the lawsuit Michael Jordan's race team just filed against NASCAR
Cooksey with the $40 fee, you also can go back and watch other premium content on the site, like the 2024 season and past MXON races as well. I think for 14 days from purchase. Not that it’s still not way too much money just wanted to make sure you caught that incase you weren’t able to watch the mxgp season this year. Hope this is helpful if you hadn’t noticed.
My question is, if it was so bad why the teams and riders do it.
Just disgusting
MXON at Ironman is going to be horrible. They changed the track layout so much and added so much fencing.. it's going to be horrible for spectators and super cramped. Redbud has the giant infield needed for a event like this and much easier to travel around the track and see more of the track at 1 time. Ironman now a days you can only watch small sections of the track at once.
100% I was just at the finale a month or so ago and it was crowded af, hard to see and no shade at all other than the new section they added in the trees.
Pretty sure the FIM in Europe is taking a slice of the pie.
$40 to watch the race, nope let me.
Patriotism is over rated.
You have been conditioned from elementary school to compete against everyone. Our class raised the most $$ in the school, for play ground equipment your class came in last. Our school has more titles than than the school across the town.
High School rivalries between high schools. Same in collage.
My NFL team is better than your team, we will fight each other because you disrespected "MY" team.
Goes all the way up to countries, That is how we condition our young people to hate other people they dont know and get them to put on a uniform to go and kill them to prove we are better.
Good points
Why would you be patriotic to a country that hates you? Besides, we're living under occupation.
What's so comical about sports rivalries is that none of the players grew up in your city, and they don't even live there outside of the season. Like Jerry Seinfeld said "you're rooting for laundry"
LMAO I always called supercross a traveling Circus, come to find out its ran by literal circus promoters.
I blame it on the riders and teams!! As long as they keep showing up and participating, well they are saying everything is fine. All I know is that actions speak louder than words. The teams and riders actions say everything is fine.
How do these teams sign up for the union? Go Cooksey!
It's Ridiculous.. ✌️
I paid too.
Coombs is a storyteller...?
I didn't know because I do not read his lengthy articles.
Yea, he is good at it too! Fun to listen to him tell old stories.
@@CookseyMedia Did you ever hear the story about a janky promoter who is cratering the sport?
Tom sawyer homie
Best mx/sx videos on the tube
They keep deleting my comments...
On this page?
@@CookseyMedia Yes, cuz I was answeing few comments about where to watch the MXDN on the web for fr€€
might be cuz i mentioned other video platform? but I was carefull to replace some characters to avoid censoring... looks like not enough. A.I. mechanism behind the scenes is powerfull. they can detect and "know" what we're talking about even if we try to use similar words.
the other platform I was indicating was (translate from portuguese to english) = MOVIMENTO DIÁRIO
@@CookseyMedia and now answering you.. it just happened again. crazy how it works. I posted 3 responses here on your comment. only one (and i hope this too...) are visible.
Don't do Mr. Burns dirty like that again or Smithers might find out.
UMW united motorcross workers!!! Form a union🎉
I'm not paying. I'll watch the highlites on youtube or read about it on the internet.
Made some great points as always Cooksey. I’m not paying 40 even though I really want to watch, I’m betting that I can watch on RUclips sometime after the race, but it’s definitely BS.
God bless you Cooksey for fighting the good fight!!!
AMEN!
MORE!!!
#freecooksey
Dig the show, but the constant bashing of all the promoters of the sport gets old. Be you but we all know the powers will always make the big money. Get back to giving your opinion of the races.
Will do! I get tired of it too, but until racing gets going, I will be talking about this stuff, I was triggered paying $40 to watch this race…
Hahaha I wonder how I got unsubbed maybe the Coombs got contacts in the google camp?
Keep it up cooksi shake that bush
Bro. Lean your history. It was Tom Sawyer not Huck.
Agreed.
Last time I paid to watch MXoN was the last time it was at Matterley Basin. the race was a total dud.
I would be fine with being an ignorant millionaire.
All these comments saying you love the sport the riders should be paid but in the same comment saying you won’t pay to watch it 😂
It’s like the olympics I think it’s a bit shit they’re not getting paid but it’s a volunteer thing they want to go
It's simple start a riders union period
You mean the privateers union right? Factory guys are stuck in their contracts... They can't do nothing outside the agreement or get fired 💁🏼
Fired?...lol and replaced by who?
If they just stood up to Davey Combs he would shit his pants.
Cooksey I agree with you but fans are being fucked as bad as the teams.. Look at the ticket prices, fuggin insane.. If fans go on strike that would be just as effective as anything riders or teams can do.... But, nobody will come together
I am going with teams, they would be the easiest to get on the same page.
There's not an infinite amount of room for fans so high tickets prices is going to happen when an event is in high demand. The teams and riders are getting screwed.
Best video ever Cooksey!
