Full-scale competitions are already being held — just like real motocross, with one exception.
There are no motorcycles. Participants simply run along the track holding handlebars and compete for speed.
🚨🇦🇺HERO BYSTANDER DISARMS BONDI BEACH GUNMAN
Amid the chaos at Bondi Beach, a brave bystander tackled one of the armed suspects and ripped the shotgun from his hands before he could fire again.
The dramatic moment may have prevented further injuries as beachgoers ran for their lives.
Police later arrested both suspects, but not before one civilian showed true Aussie courage under fire.

Expansion alone isn’t the answer.
Out of $48 million that will be paid to the 12 CFP teams (and distributed among their conferences) $32 million will go to schools where ESPN fully or almost fully owns the media rights (SEC, ACC, AAC, and SBC)
Only $16 million will go to schools in conferences where ESPN doesn’t own the rights (B1G and Big 12). ESPN also doesn’t own the media rights for Notre Dame.
Once you understand that, the double standards applying the selection criteria make sense:
Of course we shouldn’t penalize Alabama for getting blown out in its CCG—the ESPN owned SEC makes ESPN more money!
Of course we should penalize BYU for getting blown out in its CCG. The Big 12 won’t make ESPN more money! Of course the Big 12 is only a 1 bid league!
And even better—penalizing BYU means we can make an excuse to swap Notre Dame (for which ESPN doesn’t own the rights) for Miami (for which ESPN DOES own the rights).
Result: ESPN can better line its own pockets and invest in its own product.
Why does all that matter?
If we only expand the playoffs without structurally separating ESPN’s profits from playoff selection, the wrongs, the double standards, and the ridiculous narratives will continue, just on a larger scale.
Instead, we’ll simply see 8 SEC teams in, 3-4 B1G, 1-2 Big 12, and likely 2 ACC despite that conferences’ clear weaknesses (whether the ACC is even still a P4 conference is a debate for another day, but the fact that a bad 5 loss Duke won the CCG is compelling evidence that it’s probably not).
Until ESPN’s profits are wholly severed from the playoff selection process, ESPN’s CFB corruption will remain King.
FSD saves lives. It happened to me tonight.
Going through New Mexico from the Tesla Shareholders' meeting, the head-on collision (75 mph) with oncoming traffic was averted. Just a broken mirror, busted window, and a bit of a shaken mind. Thank you Elon, thank you Tesla, thank you cybertruck.
"I don't know his positions, I feel like he was so controversial and he probably shouldn't have a platform in the first place, so yah probably a little deserved"
so what she is saying here is; I don't know who that guy is but because everyone is saying he deserved to die-he obviously deserved to die.
Oscar Wilde quote sums this up nicely:
"Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation."
EXPOSED: American spent all day doing her own investigation and TMZ lied. They were 100% cheering at the news Charlie Kirk had just been assassinated
TMZ 100% lied about the car chase video and it’s proven by timestamps
This is so good. Cancel TMZ
This video is wild 💀
George Kittle talks about using a Vasper System for his training:
“It knocks you the fuck out at night. You sleep so well and you have wild dreams. The main selling point is that you blow huge loads… That’s how it was sold to players that it boosts your testosterone, you sleep really well, you feel really great, and you’re also going to blow huge loads… In 2019 there were like 6 or 7 49ers coaches doing it all the time. Mike LaFleur, one of our OC was in there all the time. Going to town. Post practice he was the first guy in (to use the machine) to beat all the players. It was hilarious.”
