Wether or not people agree with your views or how you express them, It’s vital to have someone like you in this sport. I can see the writing on the walls with how everything is going to be over corporatized and woke in a matter of years. It’s refreshing to hear a non-scripted opinion of everything that happens in the sport
Man.... don't say that.... If motocross/supercross goes woke, I'mma fucking lose my shit. If I see purple hair and pronouns, I'll quit watching what's been my favorite sport for almost 40 years!
I think Dungey is a dick. You know I don't want to be one of those guys bitching about an autograph, I worked at bikeshop, my buddy's 7 year old little brother snubbed by Dungey. When he came out of retirement, I saved those Wheaties boxes, brought a couple. The way the tents were set up, me and my brother were the only guys on that side, we both had Dungey Wheaties boxes (I saved like 3). He looks up, sees our Wheaties boxes, quickly averted eye contact. Those things came out awhile ago, anyway after that me and my brother gave him a new nickname. The Dung beetle 😂. Fuck him and his Wheaties boxes. I know pros can't do that shit all day, but would have taken 2 seconds, only pro out there was Jo Shimoda, he was out all day signing. I got like 3 autographs from him. Then he went out and won the overall that day I think. Going through the trouble of bringing those stupid boxes, taking them to pits. Ect. Honestly he always got waxed by RV, then retired way to early cause he was scared Tomac was gonna smoke him lol. Dudes always seemed like a prick.
Supercross needs better pre and post race questions like the UFC, something to get these guys fired up. I'm tired of hearing about suspension and how good the Dunlops are hooking up lol
Someone like you surely deserves a media pass for sure, Cooksey! I got one for my local men's college basketball team and I speak my mind on what I just saw out there on the court. On top of that, I'm also looking for a job in Hawaii sports, too. I'm still gonna be watching your stuff because you have great insight, and the kind of privileges I wish I had if I were freelancing on Monster Energy Supercross full-time. Keep 'em coming, Cooksey!
Honestly, I was pretty sure you were making shit up and complaining about nothing. Crazy how wrong I was. I gained a lot of respect for you watching this video. I’m stoked to have someone real that will say the truth even if it gets them in hot water with the powers that control what we see and hear. Thanks for being true to yourself and delivering the truth and your unbiased opinions on what happens behind the curtain. Much respect.
yea, you would think KW is the "man". Another morally bankrupt cancer of the industry. Hey KW...good thing you stepped away from PulpMX. If he were still there it would have burned to the ground by now@@CookseyMedia
I sponsored a privateer rider this year and had FELD employees tell my rider and his mechanic that they couldn't wear the rain jackets that I had made to keep my riders dry. (They were told they could wear the jackets everywhere but the LINE.... Makes total sense now why they won't let PRIVATEERS sell merchandise too... They banned a raincoat because it was brilliant marketing and flashy.... corporate americas the best.... hahahahah...... Gonna get interesting.... cheers! #kranikbrand
I don’t always like your opinion or what you have to say but I still respect that you are willing to say it. Free speech brother and you are willing to accept the consequences. I am glad you are asking the hard questions or saying what no one else is willing to say. As for the sport, once mx sports did Langston dirty in the motocross booth my eyes were opened.
Thanks Cooksey. Transparency is inconvenient for those who lead organizations. It is essential to keep those organizations from becoming a self serving dictatorship.
Oh, you were the guy that asked that ridiculous question I remember thinking that reporter is completely out of touch with the sport of motocross, and has probably never raced himself
I am sure they will give him a pass someday; they love hearing him say Ricky Carmichael is an Idiot, Brian Deegan is Dumb as Rocks, Jayce from Gypsy Tales is a Garbage, and the AMA is a bunch of bozos... I am sure he will get that press pass in no time!
That’s what Lori at Glen Helen said it’s about who says they can bring in more money on race weekend… it’s all about money, not location or track design, since Southern California has 3 big tracks
I understand how you feel, unfortunately power desires complete control, irrespective of what your intent is (clearly yours is well intentioned). You ask questions that are incongruous with those holding the reigns of power. Hence the reason so many absolutely redundant questions are constantly asked by certain conditioned minds considered acceptable. As the sport of motocross has evolved it has become more aligned with the intent of mainstream corporate dogma. This stifles actual growth while centralizing those same power structures that help perpetuate this directional evolution, or devolution as some may perceive it. It’s a tough pill to swallow considering how much effort you’ve poured into the sport of motocross, many like myself appreciate your efforts and hope only the best moving forward. It would be worse to see one like yourself capitulate and govern your content with the domineering attitude of those in power seemingly wearing lenses of rose, tainting the brutal reality of the sport, so that a mere few may find it more appealing (in time they quickly abandon the sport due to the extreme nature of it). The sport of motocross is an Extreme Sport, even more injurious than professional MMA. Ask any professional MMA fighter who understands the brutality of man and machine. They look at us like we’re effin nuts. A handlebar to the sternum may result in the severing of a valve in the heart (unsurvivable). Or throttle lock off a tiny tabletop may send the unsuspecting victim hurling over a 100 ft to the dome, resulting in a broken pelvis, femur, arm, jaw (along with dislocation), teeth forced backwards into the gum line, tongue skewered upside down through the single remaining tooth, blood pouring into the mouth causing victim to aspirate on their own fluids…I rest my case. Moto will never go truly mainstream. People are far too soft, especially woke culture and the associated intent, of which We the People are being guided by, along with the demented and fractured minds of nefarious entities posing as magnanimous individuals who care. Power loves power. Period. And remember these are the same power mongers posing as stewards of nature, with their carbon capping monologues, all while chartering private jets, living in absolute opulence, in bed with the private banking sector who seek absolute control over the Earth and her resources, including Humanity. Sorry to digress but this is mainstream intent; wish I had a dollar every time I’ve heard riders excitedly brag about the idea of Motocross becoming “mainstream”. No thanks, I’ll take the days of Magoo and friends over the polished politician/racer any day. Along with a certain homeostatic herb and immunomodulator. They can take their synthetic derivatives and shove it where the sun don’t shine.
You’re responsible for some of the most well known interview clips (Anderson telling ama to suck it, and dungey freakin out) yet they take away your media pass. What a joke! I actually appreciate you made this video. I hope everyone sees this.
@@CookseyMedia you’re welcome! That’s like if they fired the camera man for filming the Jett and Anderson incident, yet used in the PR clip the following week. That’s actually crazy.
Supercross and motocross has gone down hill through these last 15-17 years. I've been watching moto and supercross since the late 1970's and didn't miss any of the action until I got to college, early 1990's. Got back into it 1996, then worked at various dealerships, raced again, ran around with guys in the Industry and then 2008-2009 got photo credentials to still-photo Pro AMA motocross race at Freestone Tx. Just has become so lame now. Some of it is hard to watch.
it’s sad since this is a sport that supports free speech and everything america stands for, yet the people running the sport are the complete opposite. we need ppl like you in the sport. especially supporting the riders
No. It does not support free speech. The group of people running the sport are the same group of people running everything else in America. You are living in an occupied nation.
KooKShacK ! - Keep up the good work ! There are MANY of us out here that know exactly what is going on . . . "TRUTH" will rise to the top. You "ARE" - MX media. You are the Bean Oil - to the High Test ! Your the "BRAAAP" to the Two Stroke ! You "ARE" the real voice - who we TRUST !!!
Good on you Cooksey about time someone stood up to them now all we need is the track owners to stand up to them and all agree to not run any nationals that would fix them
I love that he is saying all this being a part of mx sports and racerx no one there truly cares about what he says all he wants is drama obviously if he is posting all about it telling everyone to read stuff he told other people not to post. Not even my dad likes him and that says something my dad will like anyone till they do something bad. Thank you.
Been there, similar situation. You just have to decide, am I going to keep quiet and let the rumors quietly spread around, or am I going to say the problems out loud and get blacklisted. You always have to ask yourself, "Is this a hill I am ready to fight for and possibly die on?" Most of the time, the honest answer is NO, so you stay quiet and most of the time move on anyway. But when it's something you're passionate about, the answer should always be YES. It's clear you care about the RIDERS and the SPORT. So, yes, you pissed a lot of people off, and they are taking vengeance every chance they get. But yeah, the RIDERS and the SPORT need people like you... even it means, you're the BAD GUY.
Well, I think it’s bullshit that you’re not allowed to have your questions or your views so they ban you. In my opinion, Davy Coombs has driven our sport almost into the ground. Instead of making deals with Peacock and all those type make it with ESPN so it’s more Publicized and more people see it. Keep doing what you’re doing brother I love it.
I admit, I thought you were tool at first and I talked bad about you and I apologize I’ve come around and I Enjoy your show and thank you what you do .
I remember reading that article how Coombs screwed the N.P.G, guy goes on behalf of the group and puts in his own Bid. Realized then and there all that guy cares about is money. Dude doesn't care about mx. Ironman, sits all year except one weekend a year (maybe 2 if there's a regional there) not counting gnnc's. I've emailed him before telling him Indiana mx is dying, we don't even have an AMA district in Indiana anymore, used to district 15. No reply. He's not gonna hold events that would help the sport. Indiana is hurting for mx. Luckily I'm 30 min from Michigan and about the same from Illinois. Everyone races those tracks. Lots of good practice tracks in Indiana, but the racing is dead. One promotor, they own like 4 tracks, they have an event at one every weekend friday Saturday sunday. The motos are 5 minutes long, and its just a joke, turnout so low there's 12 different classes on the gate. They rush through the program so fast you barely have time to get a drink of water lol. They're Reads racing. Anyway Ironman could kickstart Indiana mx again. I feel sorry for people more southern Indiana. One teack that is really awesome, wildcat, they only have about 3 events a year now, cause no series, no district, reads won't work with anyone else. You're spot on man. Him selling out all the other promotors, that sure wasn't for the "love of the sport" it's the love of money. I've never gone to lorettas, It sounds like a giant money trap. And how the ama fines guys, like other round Webb got fined for missing an interview. Wtf. These guys are the show, I wish they would unionize. Funny how WSX comes around and AMA feld supercross panics. Kenny lost his ride from honda over doing them, you know that's feld pressuring the OEM's. Anyway keep up the good work man. You're 100% right about Davey Coombs. Dude just cares about money. I've heard stories about him landing at Lorettas in his helicopter. Glen helen is way better than that hunk of crap fox raceway. Got a chance to ride there in the early 2000s, my brother was in the marines and had a bike out there where he was stationed. Anyway keep on telling it like it is!
I hope everyone realizes how ALL main stream media operates this way to propagandize and influence EVERYTHING that comes out. Find truly "independent" and real journalism, and that's your only chance at an honest story...assuming of course that said journalist isn't "suicidal."
I’m glad to finally hear this story. I honestly thought it was the question to Jason was what got you on the bad side, but now it makes a lot more sense, which is one of my favorite Ando moments. Anyway thanks for explaining the whole story and I think it will give people a better perspective of your background. Cooksey Mob🤘🤘
Completely agree the sport is limited by this grip mx sports has. I think they did good getting the sport where it is but are in over their heads to get the sport growing to the level that it should be. The self cannibalization of sponsors and lack of outside interest is mind blowing. Hopefully people like you bringing things like this to light will spark change one day. Social media has already made a big impact. I think Deegan and Lawrence fandom will be the straw that breaks the camels back. This whole thing is a circus and we are about to see what happens when the monkeys have more power than the ring leader.
davey has the big fish in the small pond syndrome. he is a tyrant that will not relinquish any power and control even if it’s for the good of the sport. the only way moto grows is if he and his family and their cohorts leave. until that happens it will always be a niche sport. but hey, ya gotta give the devil his due, he has create a monopoly and is gathering wealth to himself and those around him at the expense of others.
Freedom Dammit!! ...thanks bro! BMX is crap now for the same reasons, ..its like watching a ten speed race. All the tracks are without any real jumps or mud! ...how come there is no mud section in supercross? ..but they only do sand? And who made our sport a circus show????? And who in the heavens would ever interview the podium guys like they are cattle rounded up to moo??? It's gaudy and feels fake...while everyone follows along to get duped in the wallet.
Never bow to those in perceived power. It does nothing but make them actually powerful. There are some I followed or watched at one point who grovel to get the scraps from these self proclaimed LORDS of racing and I stopped following and stopped watching them. If someone has to lower THEIR standards to become part of a Group just to appease said group they are no longer able to be actual journalists and this is why the racers never get the real hard questions because they are babied by these groups. Sad. Sad. Sad. Racing is a tough sport but until riders and teams stand up to this kind of thing they will continue to get the same ol song and dance. Good for you for sticking up for yourself Cooksey. Never bow. Ever.
i am so glad you have pulled back the curtain on the bullshit within the MX racing world. everything you’ve said is spot on. those people have pushed people around or years without anybody pushing back. actions like those you describe is why moto will never be any bigger than what it is right now. outside sponsors have wanted in moto for years, but because of the actions of the powers that be, they just take their money and walk away. keep up the good work.
Some of the criticism I hear is wasted energy Cooksey, but people will always point their finger at those educating others about abuse they endured so I applaud you for sharing your story for those that haven't heard it. Your experience is that Coombs lied, exploited, gaslighted, and harassed - and talking about it makes you the bad guy because unmasking narcissists makes other narcissistic personalities uncomfortable. Everything is a competition to those kind of people, even personal experiences and opinions.
don’t worry mate, the press pass seems like it doesn’t offer much value. The riders don’t really give anything away and the only thing that matters is happening on the track which we can all see either from the stands or on the broadcast 🤷♂️
Dude, youre going through the exact same shit my good buddy, the legendary Steve 'TFS' Bruhn (RIP) went through 15yrs ago. Dont upset the apple cart, or you will be thrown under the bus without mercy. Be careful.
U were going up in the hundreds of subscribers between each video and then right around 23800 it all froze. I have been watching so I could congratulate u on 25k but that day should of came a weeks ago. Think u got ABC'd for daring to go there.
I can't agree more about what you said. People do know this but really can't do anything about it .People at local and pro events talk about this all the time.
Ive been trying find land and work with all the near by counties to get motocross track going i wanted to get those big companies involved get riders more money but honestly i think if i just organize everything myself ill get riders more money in payouts.
@@kimcabe3993 It does happen all over YT but never seems to happen to channels YT likes. This is the first time I've seen it happen to a channel that's not political so maybe Cooksey's digressions into politics is the reason for the problem. YT obviously wouldn't approve of his views being the Ls taking Ls that they are.
Learning how to temper your words is an art... you’ve found out and know that what you say affects how people see you. Can't call the people that write the checks ass holes and expect to be kept around
Anything you have and are scared to say send it to me Ill be your Batman Cooksey idk about my channel I say what I want lol I been a fan again for a while I see you coming back home to the you I liked.
They can’t handle the truth are sport will be woke before long.I hate to say it but they are using riders like Jett to usher it in.NASCAR is a prime example.We Will have nothing left after Wall Street gets done.
Davey sounds like a pretty insecure guy, which causes him to lie and be a cutthroat. Good for you Chris for standing your ground and calling them out. You’re the “gadfly” of the industry.
You so don't want to hear from me. But I'll say keep going deep. The sport needs you and privates needs to see the tangled web. It's so sad the dream of a kid how AC is washed up. But please give some ❤to Craig. Get him off that stell frame and have his wife dad start a Yamaha team
Wether or not people agree with your views or how you express them, It’s vital to have someone like you in this sport. I can see the writing on the walls with how everything is going to be over corporatized and woke in a matter of years. It’s refreshing to hear a non-scripted opinion of everything that happens in the sport
Hey cooksey been unscribed over 10 times fix it UA-cam !!
So true. Well said.
Man.... don't say that....
If motocross/supercross goes woke, I'mma fucking lose my shit.
If I see purple hair and pronouns, I'll quit watching what's been my favorite sport for almost 40 years!
I had no clue you asked that famous Dungey question. That's honest a great moment and huge moment for Ryan.
When he yelled at me it sucked, talk about an awkward room. 🤣🤣 It was stand up of him to apologize at the end of the season,
@@CookseyMedia - Chris, how many of those people are members of The Tribe? Have you started noticing a pattern with them yet?
I think Dungey is a dick. You know I don't want to be one of those guys bitching about an autograph, I worked at bikeshop, my buddy's 7 year old little brother snubbed by Dungey.

This is exactly why I luv your channel! You are true to your word. #TELLHOWITIS
Keep up the good work Cooksey!
Not yet through the video yet, but loving this so far. Good to hear some backstory.
They pay the riders shit and pocket the $$, what else do u need to know.
I love it! With UA-cam and instagram you are your own media group!
Your courage, transparency and honesty has made me a subscriber thank you. I didn't realize the dirty politics in this sport was as bad as it is.

Indiana is hurting for mx. Luckily I'm 30 min from Michigan and about the same from Illinois. Everyone races those tracks. Lots of good practice tracks in Indiana, but the racing is dead. One promotor, they own like 4 tracks, they have an event at one every weekend friday Saturday sunday. The motos are 5 minutes long, and its just a joke, turnout so low there's 12 different classes on the gate. They rush through the program so fast you barely have time to get a drink of water lol. They're Reads racing. Anyway Ironman could kickstart Indiana mx again. I feel sorry for people more southern Indiana. One teack that is really awesome, wildcat, they only have about 3 events a year now, cause no series, no district, reads won't work with anyone else. You're spot on man. Him selling out all the other promotors, that sure wasn't for the "love of the sport" it's the love of money. I've never gone to lorettas, It sounds like a giant money trap. And how the ama fines guys, like other round Webb got fined for missing an interview. Wtf. These guys are the show, I wish they would unionize. Funny how WSX comes around and AMA feld supercross panics. Kenny lost his ride from honda over doing them, you know that's feld pressuring the OEM's. Anyway keep up the good work man. You're 100% right about Davey Coombs. Dude just cares about money. I've heard stories about him landing at Lorettas in his helicopter. Glen helen is way better than that hunk of crap fox raceway. Got a chance to ride there in the early 2000s, my brother was in the marines and had a bike out there where he was stationed. Anyway keep on telling it like it is!
damn cooksey. you been killing it man. somehow you always bring me back haha. keep at it man and fuck them if they want to be indifferent about it.
I hope everyone realizes how ALL main stream media operates this way to propagandize and influence EVERYTHING that comes out. Find truly "independent" and real journalism, and that's your only chance at an honest story...assuming of course that said journalist isn't "suicidal."
Every time I check it show that I’m not subscribed. But you still show up under my subscriptions.
Glad to hear the Truth!!
Good for you
I love how you keep it real Cooksey. Keep doing what you're doing.
Thank you! Will do!
Keep up the great work!
WOW 🤘🏻
I’m glad to finally hear this story. I honestly thought it was the question to Jason was what got you on the bad side, but now it makes a lot more sense, which is one of my favorite Ando moments. Anyway thanks for explaining the whole story and I think it will give people a better perspective of your background. Cooksey Mob🤘🤘
Completely agree the sport is limited by this grip mx sports has. I think they did good getting the sport where it is but are in over their heads to get the sport growing to the level that it should be. The self cannibalization of sponsors and lack of outside interest is mind blowing.
Hopefully people like you bringing things like this to light will spark change one day. Social media has already made a big impact. I think Deegan and Lawrence fandom will be the straw that breaks the camels back. This whole thing is a circus and we are about to see what happens when the monkeys have more power than the ring leader.
davey has the big fish in the small pond syndrome. he is a tyrant that will not relinquish any power and control even if it’s for the good of the sport. the only way moto grows is if he and his family and their cohorts leave. until that happens it will always be a niche sport. but hey, ya gotta give the devil his due, he has create a monopoly and is gathering wealth to himself and those around him at the expense of others.
Freedom Dammit!! ...thanks bro! BMX is crap now for the same reasons, ..its like watching a ten speed race. All the tracks are without any real jumps or mud! ...how come there is no mud section in supercross? ..but they only do sand? And who made our sport a circus show????? And who in the heavens would ever interview the podium guys like they are cattle rounded up to moo??? It's gaudy and feels fake...while everyone follows along to get duped in the wallet.
I agree! And it's literally a Circus promoter who is running the show.
We need people like you, so we can point F##### fingers and say “That’s the bad guy” 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Never bow to those in perceived power. It does nothing but make them actually powerful. There are some I followed or watched at one point who grovel to get the scraps from these self proclaimed LORDS of racing and I stopped following and stopped watching them. If someone has to lower THEIR standards to become part of a Group just to appease said group they are no longer able to be actual journalists and this is why the racers never get the real hard questions because they are babied by these groups. Sad. Sad. Sad. Racing is a tough sport but until riders and teams stand up to this kind of thing they will continue to get the same ol song and dance. Good for you for sticking up for yourself Cooksey. Never bow. Ever.
Expose them all day we need the truth
Keep telling the TRUTH.
Jonny Hopper been saying for years MX sports are greedy for money and theres never enough for the riders.
Not only does the sport appear to be stuck, but it also seems to be on the way out 🤔
i am so glad you have pulled back the curtain on the bullshit within the MX racing world. everything you’ve said is spot on. those people have pushed people around or years without anybody pushing back. actions like those you describe is why moto will never be any bigger than what it is right now. outside sponsors have wanted in moto for years, but because of the actions of the powers that be, they just take their money and walk away. keep up the good work.
Some of the criticism I hear is wasted energy Cooksey, but people will always point their finger at those educating others about abuse they endured so I applaud you for sharing your story for those that haven't heard it. Your experience is that Coombs lied, exploited, gaslighted, and harassed - and talking about it makes you the bad guy because unmasking narcissists makes other narcissistic personalities uncomfortable. Everything is a competition to those kind of people, even personal experiences and opinions.
Do you have any ideas media wise on who could I maybe shoot for for denver sx? thanks
This is the third time I"ve had to subscribe.
don’t worry mate, the press pass seems like it doesn’t offer much value. The riders don’t really give anything away and the only thing that matters is happening on the track which we can all see either from the stands or on the broadcast 🤷♂️
Respect
It would not surprise me one bit! Seems everywhere scum floats on top! But one day it will be skimmed off and discarded✝️
Dude, youre going through the exact same shit my good buddy, the legendary Steve 'TFS' Bruhn (RIP) went through 15yrs ago.
Dont upset the apple cart, or you will be thrown under the bus without mercy. Be careful.
U were going up in the hundreds of subscribers between each video and then right around 23800 it all froze. I have been watching so I could congratulate u on 25k but that day should of came a weeks ago. Think u got ABC'd for daring to go there.
Travis DelNicki that's what's up! Grew up racing with him my whole life in New England!
Cooksey you keep those Bastards Honest son.
Cooksey Mob!!!! I'm still subscribed brother. This was another banger of a video!!! Are you gonna be in Arlington this weekend?
I can't agree more about what you said. People do know this but really can't do anything about it .People at local and pro events talk about this all the time.
Time to sub. Awesome vid
Ive been trying find land and work with all the near by counties to get motocross track going i wanted to get those big companies involved get riders more money but honestly i think if i just organize everything myself ill get riders more money in payouts.
I've had to sub 3 times in the last 2 weeks. 🤦♂️🤷♂️
This guy is the only one that talked about what really happened to Deegan when he got injured.
Lmfao. You missed all the other popular mx channels also mentioning it 100 times? You guys are more brainwashed then cooksey 😂
They all said it was just a sprain, this told us how serious it was.@@mathewpist4
My subscription is unaffected.
Mine has been good too. It's a conspiracy.. maybe it helps to (subliminally) attract subs. Possibly
it’s not just this channel, it happens all over youtube.
@@kimcabe3993 It does happen all over YT but never seems to happen to channels YT likes. This is the first time I've seen it happen to a channel that's not political so maybe Cooksey's digressions into politics is the reason for the problem. YT obviously wouldn't approve of his views being the Ls taking Ls that they are.
They need to give cooksey another press pass and drop thier bull shit
Learning how to temper your words is an art... you’ve found out and know that what you say affects how people see you. Can't call the people that write the checks ass holes and expect to be kept around
I’m stoned
Had a couple gummies myself
Haha I haven't seen you post about being stoned lately. Hope all is well!
Hahahahah that's awesome 😅😅😅
That’s why Glen Helen doesn’t have a national anymore. What douches.
Thanks for giving the US the Raw Truth !
Anything you have and are scared to say send it to me Ill be your Batman Cooksey idk about my channel I say what I want lol I been a fan again for a while I see you coming back home to the you I liked.
and Mike Goodwin was an honest guy?
Need a link to the Facebook article please?
They can’t handle the truth are sport will be woke before long.I hate to say it but they are using riders like Jett to usher it in.NASCAR is a prime example.We Will have nothing left after Wall Street gets done.
Davey sounds like a pretty insecure guy, which causes him to lie and be a cutthroat. Good for you Chris for standing your ground and calling them out. You’re the “gadfly” of the industry.
Hes nothing like his dad, thats for sure!
What happened with you and Hopper? You aren't on any of his videos anymore with him & Coach?
Hopper wanted to distance himself from Cooksey so he could get a press pass and play ball with the dipshits.
Hopper wanted to go mainstream and get press passes, so he had to drop Cooksey to please those in charge.
@@AJourneyOfYourSoul Wow YT is a pos. I said the same thing and they deleted it.
Well, how do we, the people stop them?
I got danger but for Arlington. The little pitbull is bringing the heat Saturday. He's going to put as fork in forkner 😅
Luv yah Cooksey , greed + Greed = ScUm
You so don't want to hear from me. But I'll say keep going deep. The sport needs you and privates needs to see the tangled web. It's so sad the dream of a kid how AC is washed up. But please give some ❤to Craig. Get him off that stell frame and have his wife dad start a Yamaha team
