Strangely, the GQ photo shoot makes him seem not gay...

Here's the #199 your 2000, 125 National MX Champ in a short article and photo spread -

This sucks...

This is pretty gnarly. It's one of the fast amateur kids (Brad Frace). Looks like he caught his left foot-peg and got high sided off this jump while he was wide open.

Here's an update from the kid's Pops -

I just wanted to give everyone a report on Brad’s condition. Brad was in horrific crash and was life flighted to Harris Methodist Hospital. It was found that he had a crushed vertebrae in his mid-back, they rushed him into surgery for 8 and 1/2 hours. They removed all the broken pieces and implanted an artificial vertebrae and two rods. They used all the broken bone fragments to fuse five of the vertebraes together. The surgeon said everything went well. He has feeling in both legs, but is unable to move them YET. He is out of ICU already and he is scheduled to move to Baylor Institute of Rehabilitation on Wednesday for rehab for an undetermined amount of time. The Frace family would like to thank everyone for their amazing amount of support and prayers and a special thanks to Paul the medic at Oakhill MX. He made all the right decisions preventing further injury.

Music Monday... (now on Tuesday!)

PJ Harvey lets loose with a snazzy little album 'Let England Shake'...

Check out this video from the album. There are some good songs on this one.

Salt Lake City track map...

Should be dry. But, it looks like it's gonna be COLD.

We here at The CFSC have heard rumors that everyone's favorite little German (not the one with the Charlie Chaplin 'stache and the stiff arm) might be back to race SLC and Las Vegas. Haven't read any confirmations anywhere though. Oh, and Weimer's coming back for this race and Las Vegas.

Seattle scores...

... Why?... I wook hart to get my place bootiful...

Who knew cursing could be so much FUN! This thing still makes me laugh and cry (from laughing!).

Totes awesome bro-dawg!

Uh, ... I win AGAIN!

I think that's three in a row, a.k.a. 'A Turkey', a.k.a. 'The Hat Trick', a.k.a. 'Grimacing'...

The rest of the scores look like something from the Special Olympics (where nobody finishes off the podium).

1. HQ - 35 points

2.MOD - 30 points

2. Jay - 30 points

2. Tim - 30 points

2. Box - 30 points

3. Don - 25 points

3. Ken - 25 points

On to SLC.

Overall totals...

Make sure to WD-40 the shit out of your bearings (Guy Grundy does)...

What doesn't this video have?

You have to check out Sausage Fingers breaking it down at about 3:08 into the video.

There is also an interesting snippet on unlimbited downhill skater and former professional motorcycle racer Mike Johnson.

Former 'sicle racer and downhill skater? Talk about an adrenaline junkie! Kick up your heel and relax Mike!

This video does take a bit of an uncomfortable turn at about 8:25 . That's when 'Master of the Magic Rolling Board' Ed Madeliene gets a little too chummy (for my liking) with Stacy Peralta (two-up on one board? c'mon guys).

The Baldy stuff looks cool (weird to see that place with almost no graffiti) right up until they butt hump the footage by turning it upside down (oh well). All in all, I give Pyramid Films 'The Magic Rolling Board' an enthusiastic 8.2 on the CFSC entertain-o-meter.

Everything's starting to shake out now, no more ties. She's still really close -

1. MOD - 685 points (2* wins)

2. KBK - 680 points (3* wins)

3. HQ - 665 points (5 * wins, that's right FIVE wins. Suck it.)

4. Jay - 655 points (4* wins)

5. Box - 605 points (2* wins)

6. Tim - 600 points (2 wins)

7. 336g - 560 points

Two races and six mains to go. This is going to come down to Las Vegas to see who's crowned CFSC Champ for 2011 (I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say the odds are that the three time champ known as 'Three Time Champ Don Reed' will not be the 2011 CFSC Champ. Probably).

* denotes at least one win that was a tie score

Son of a Bitch...

Fuckin' Herman's...

Now I've gone from suicidal to a Nihilist (but without the impulse to destroy). I believe in nothing and am skeptical of everything. Although you have to admire Mark's commitment to his role, I mean the guy shaved his face and tucked his shirt into his shorts for God's sake.

Everyone's a fucker.

Bummer...

This guy's hurt...

Broken femur apparently, guessing it's not a complete fracture because it looks like the healing time is gonna be six weeks.

For Seattle...

This guy's in 1st.

MOD and KBK are still duking it out.

HQ surpasses JStar for second.

Steve and Tim are like Reed and Stewart and can't stop finding each other.

Music Monday...

9 seconds that will change the future...

BMX kids will be doing this in a couple years, the way skaters do ollies now.

Goddamn Euros, they adopted the metric system in the 1800's, they've been paying 4 bucks a gallon or more for gas for a decade and now all of a sudden they're kickflipping bicycles. They're from the future I bet.

You really should watch this full screen. Really.

St. Louis rider list...

Please enjoy a screen capture from the 80's SEMENial homo-erotic classic "Barebacking Puerto Rican Hardboys 3"...

Dallas scores...

This kid's won 3 races this season. Would you have guessed that at the beginning of the year?

Tie win! ...Again.

Mauri and I tag team the top step of the podium.

Steve makes sweet love to the 2nd step of the podium.

Overall totals...

350cc's of anger in front of everything else.

Mauri moves into a tie for the lead with Kenner.

Jay's 10 back. I kinda get in the mix.

Steve and Tim are locked in a battle of death for a couple months now.

Donny remains in the basement but could catch Steve or Tim still, maybe.

Donny has yet to win a round

Jay has won 4 rounds and isn't in 1st. WTF?

1. KBK - 590 points (3* wins)

1. MOD - 590 points (2* wins)

6. Don - 475 points

* denotes at least one win that was a tie score

(and yes, a couple years ago when I was rocking a mustache and hadn't cut my hair in a while some motherfucker screamed "Ron Jeremy" at me from a passing car. Someday I hope to know why strangers yell shit at me.)
