Look how stacked the field is, how many guys can win and we come up to that usual number where we'll sit down go, wow, eight or nine of these guys could win a race and you know we'll get to the usual average of only around 5 do. Yeah, it will be. I, there's a very low chance to me that when you really are going to take a step back and look at whatever Hayden's 2027 season is outside, outside of potentially getting hurt and missing a chunk of the season, I would think it will look back on it as successful. But yeah, is championship possible. But it's insanely unlikely considering who he's up against. And yes, Jet did it and Jed is still an otherworldly being that Hayden isn't quite to that level. He is. He isn't. He is. What's the word? I don't know, just very high level. But I think we also, even though Jet's been hurt a ton, I think we forget just how much of a force he is. 11 I saw the other day and I mean it makes sense but I was actually shocked with the currently active rider list how low Jet is on the all time win list because again he's been, he's missed so much Supercross now I think he's got now is it nine wins? I mean of course like Webb has more than there was. He's way farther down the active list than I quite realized. Yeah. We mustn't forget when it comes time to jump into 2027 Supercross prep that he has not raced a Supercross since round four or five of 2025. That mustn't be understated that yes, Jet coming back from an injury is a story but to me the bigger story is we've almost, we've not seen this guy in a stadium in almost two years and I think that could get lost in the injury specific talk. So if we don't give that enough attention listeners, please pull us up on it. Who Hayden won't have to face is Eli Tomac. Doglover136 asks Does Eli become the Daytona Grand Marshal and or a brand ambassador. I'm on the record as saying I think the first time we see Eli at a race is as the Daytona Grand Marshal. It makes so much sense. It fits perfectly. After the tooth to buckle of 2026 why not bring him back in a Grand Marshall position in 2027 but actually the golden tooth. Yep, I planted this question. Not for that reason. I don't know if I want to believe it. There are.
