Kevin & COTA

I spoke to Kevin Schwantz at the Chicago IMS last Feb.

I asked him if he could speak about COTA kind of knowing he could not talk about it, and he confirmed exactly that.

Kevin is so laid back but probably a bundle of nerves inside because of COTA.

Do you think a man that gave his all to the sport is not a bit hurting inside?

Read the quote about where he says it would not be but for him...

I love it...

Not allowing him into the facility disgusts me. I'm waiting to see if any of the top teams, riders or factories is going to stand behind him.

Oh, so what happened is that Kevin was already suing the track. Kinda makes more sense now and less that he even wanted to set foot in there.

If you impregnated a woman, would you not want to see your offspring after it was born given you had no obligation for the baby's upbringing?

Not sure if the impregnating is a great metaphor, but just because you contributed to organizing a nightclub doesnt mean you cant get kicked out on saturday night.....
