• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

James Stewart Undergoes Wrist Surgery, out for SFSX

Jan 30 2010 1:02AM

AMA SUPERCROSS CHAMPION JAMES STEWART
UNDERWENT SURGERY TODAY, FRIDAY, JANUARY 29TH, 2010

LOS ANGELES, CA – Team San Manuel Yamaha’s James Stewart underwent surgery this afternoon, to repair a broken scaphoid in his right wrist. Following Round 3 of the 2010 Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, in Anaheim, CA, Stewart continued to experience severe pain in the wrist. Although previous x-rays had not indicated there was a break, an MRI performed yesterday and reviewed by medical experts today, revealed the bone was broken. Surgery was performed immediately by orthopedic surgeon Dr. Arthur Ting, of Fremont, CA and was completed without incidence.

As a result of the surgery, Stewart will not be competing in San Francisco this weekend. His return to the race track will depend on how quickly he is able to recover post-surgery and will be evaluated and determined on a weekly basis. “James is a true champion. The fact that he rode as competitively as he did making the podium at Anaheim 2 with a broken wrist (unknowingly) is testimony to that. He’s anxious to heal and get back on the race track as soon as possible,” said Larry Brooks, Team Manager.
 
What a Sally. In 2006 I won 2 local ATV Harescramble championships while racing with the same injury...

True, but you have to be able to go all year. The lawn dart has trouble with that...

I don't care one way or the other about James Stewart(lawn dart?) but I just want to see the best race every race. The heck with Chad Reed. What a puss, he can't beat the guy straight up so lets wreck him. Total bush league crap. If you can't beat a guy improve or get used to first loser. What is he going to do when some other fast guy comes along and kicks his butt?! :excuseme:

One of the few things we have as individuals is integrity. When you compromise it for money, fame, or the pretty little thing presenting the trophy you diminish your self in front of God and everybody. If you have to rationalize your actions then you are in the wrong. There are kids watching you when you are in the spot light and you need to elevate your actions not diminish what is seen as acceptable.

Rant off,

I don't know what video you saw, but there was no "wrecking" involved. If you wanna be part of any MX or SX racing where riders can't even get next to one another or, GASP, maybe a good blockpass or two every once in awhile, that'd make for some pretty boring racing.
And remember that "puss" Reed actually raced alot more than the "lawn dart" Stewart, by NOT "pussing out" of the outdoor season.

If one of them is gonna be out of the points race, I'd personally almost rather have BOTH of them out of it to make it more interesting battle between the rest of good riders instead of one of the above two running away with it.
 
Too bad for the injury, but I'm glad the Stewart/Reed monopoly has been broken up...Last year was Boringcross.

Dungey, Villapoto...throw in Weimer, Morais, Stroupe and Pourcel in the coming years, and that will be fun...
 
That wrist injury is nothing to take lightly. It has ended careers before.

Kelly, the best thing you can do to help Villapoto out is to take the doughnuts away from him. :) That little tubby kid was a favorite of mine the last several years but seeing how he came back this year looking like he went from 18 yrs old to 34.......I'm a Dungey fan now!
