Some people may like it, some may not but it’s a different take on our sport good and bad. A long time ago, some guy named Davey Coombs told me to write him something and he would put it in his magazine and look what happened. Again, for good and for bad. Anyways, I thought I would pay it forward and give this guy a little more exposure and why don’t you check it out? If you like it, great! If you don’t, that’s ok also.
I now present to you…BROtocross!

Thanks Matthes. It’s pretty funny. When I decided to start BROtocross, I was sure that everyone was going to hate it. Maybe a couple of people would find it funny, but for the most part people would avoid it like an Asian man avoids his blinker (just kidding, Swap). All I knew was that I always had a very deep opinion of a lot that goes on in the world of motocross, and I had a lot of time on my hands since my shitty bike “jumped the shark”, literally – ok not literally, but that would be rad. Then the weirdest thing happened – people liked it. I was absolutely dumbfounded. Here I am making fun of pretty much everything in motocross, and all these people are reading my stuff and liking it. I got the love and I was pretty psyched. But as the blog has grown in popularity, a more vocal stream of discontent has flowed in my direction. Statistically it has to, right? Like, no popular figure in history has had zero cynics. But I have to be real, it got to me. One idiot would say that I sucked and I was ready to drive off a cliff. It hurts, you know? But then it all hit me like 450 roost at Unadilla: The haters fuel BROtocross. Controversy is good. These people say how much they dislike everything about it, but they continue to visit. I was totally taken back to the roots of BROtocross (which are only about a month and a half old): BROtocross is not here to make friends.
Thing is, people say that BROtocross is a one stop hate shop, but I by no means am here to hate for hate’s sake (wow, lot of hate in that sentence). BROtocross is just me having fun, people. Often at another’s expense, sure, but what the hell, right? I don’t take it too seriously, and honestly, there’s a few of you out there that need to follow in my footsteps. When I really like something, I am going to let you know it. BROtocross is built on me being as real as I can be. People have been asking me “What gives you the right to criticize?” Well, nothing gives me that right, and I do it anyways. The Bible says let he who is without sin cast the first stone, but luckily, I am not religious, so I am SET. So to all those who don’t like me, I say thank you. And hell, if you like BROto, I say thank you, as well. Regardless, head on over to BROtocross.blogspot.com and let me know it, because haters gotta hate, and I’m lovin’ it.
Eazy.
