Re: JB is the man, stunting on the cover of 2wt
i think alot of people are missing the point to all of this...
i don't think anyone can fault another person for wanting to be successful, being successful...and honestly, i don't see that happening here...
but...
i do think it is highly suspect when the editor of a magazine...any magazine...uses that position to prop themselves up even more than they already are...it falls along the lines of a major conflict of interest...and it probably hurts the magazine more in the long run than helps it...think about it like this...
JB is the editor for 2WT...he pastes himself all over the mag, all of his sponsors, videos, anything JB related get good reviews and press, while the rest of the industry either gets a blind eye turned towards it or bashed...
sooner or later, it will become harder for 2WT to get products for review or content for articles...then it will get harder for readers to not look at it as a monthly JB catalog...then subscriptions lag, magazine sales lag...and the final result is that the mag gets pulled, giving us all one less avenue to show what we are about....
all because JB did not want anyone else to get shine...
the old school "do for self" attitude will do more harm than good overall to the sport...and alot of people who have put in some serious time, effort, and energy to make things happen do tend to get upset and protective when they see their work threatened, in one way, shape, form or another...
"chop off the hands of those that would stab you in the back, and celebrate those who would ride alongside you in hell."
my two pennies on the whole matter...

Re: JB is the man, stunting on the cover of 2wt
i can't believe what ive read......thomas hating on a rider....wow....the difference between JasonBritton and TE is that JB is making a career from HIS OWN skill......
I could only say to other riders trying to make a living to do the same as JB and market yourself how you feel it will profit YOU...and don't wait for someone to offer you a chance to win money.....if you going to risk injury, why not get the money first...
and i have a long record of going against the grain....so if you don't like my you can suck my dick....
