The part about not wanting exposure:
If you bitch about no one making money in skiing or how Bode makes more than tanner...just shut the fuck up.  WHERE IS THE FUCKING MONEY.  Yes great, support 4frnt, armada, etc, but they are small, and can't shell out the million dollar contracts that everyone thinks Tanner deserves.  How the hell do you think Bode makes as much as he does?  Have you seen his tights?  Sponsors....WITH MONEY TO SPEND.  Staying core is great, and a noble cause, but not monatarily.  YOU WON"T MAKE SHIT STAYING CORE.  it's just not possible.
I'm not attacking Dynarider directly, but he made a post that just sets me off every time I read it.  Choose...Money, or Core.  You can't have both.
And everyone who can't see how great racers are need to learn respect.  At least look at it from a perspective outside your stupid "I'm a badass cuz I ski backwards, and the patrol hates me because of it"  If you, yourself want respect,  SHOW IT TO SOMEONE ELSE.  Try to appreciate something other than what you enjoy.
The entire newschool community gets shit on because of arrogant little punks who think their aspect of skiing is the only thing that matters, and all that should matter.  Guess what....RACING"S MORE POPULAR, it may suck, but that's the honest truth, and unless people quit being bitches about anything they don't like about racing, it won't change.
I don't really like racing, but I'll watch it.  It's skiing, and if you look at it objectivly(if that's possible for you) it can be sort of interesting.
