What don't I get? The fact that she had a contract with a production company to be a talking head, they wanted to extend her contract and she declined? That is Quitting.
And you call me young, but yet you are the one who can't figure out how to turn off the caps lock.

I sent this thread to Michelle and she was happy that we wanted her back and is going to track our responses. I plan to watch this Wednesday, make a list of the sponsors/advertisers and let them know of my displeasure. I suggest you let them know also. Maybe a boycott of advertisers will wake someone up.

OK.....AS FAR AS THE CAPS LOCK GOES....I LIKE IT THAT WAY, SO I LEAVE IT ON JUST TO GIVE YOU SOMETHING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT...
AS FAR AS MICHELE SMITH'S CONTRACT GOES.....THE PART YOU DON'T SEEM TO GET, IS THE FACT THAT THEY WERE NOT OFFERING TO EXTEND HER CONTRACT....YOU SEE NOW???
WHAT THEY WERE OFFERING HER WAS A DEMOTION... DO YOU KNOW WHAT A DEMOTION IS??
THEY STILL DID NOT WANT HER AS A HOST ANYMORE. SHE DID NOT WANT TO GIVE THAT JOB UP, BUT THE BIG BOSS DECIDED HE WANTED YOUNGER PEOPLE TO HOST THE SHOW.
WHICH IS WHY THE SHOW NOW SUCKS... YOU GET IT NOW, JUNIOR??
MICHELE SMITH, BEING A WISE BUSINESS WOMAN, DID NOT WANT TO DAMAGE HER CARREER BY DOING A PART TIME "SECOND FIDDLE" JOB TO A COUPLE OF NEWBIES THAT DON'T EVEN HAVE A BIKER BACKROUND.
SHE DID NOT QUIT HER JOB. THERE WAS NO JOB TO QUIT IN THE FIRST PLACE. SHE SIMPLY REFUSED WHAT THEY WERE OFFERING...WHICH IS NOT THE SAME AS QUITING AT ALL.
WHAT THEY WERE OFFERING TO HER WAS AN INSULT!
THEY GAVE WHAT WAS HERS TO SOMEONE ELSE...AND MANY MANY BIKER PEOPLE WILL MISS SEEING HER ON THE SHOW.
I DON'T SEE MUCH PRAISE FOR THE NEW HOSTS...DO YOU?
SOMEDAY YOU WILL LEARN....YOU'RE STILL YOUNG.
WAIT UNTIL IT HAPPENS TO YOU SOMEDAY....WHEN YOU GET OLDER....THEN YOU WILL SEE WHAT I MEAN.
INCIDENTALLY....YOU'RE PROBABLY GOING TO ASK ME..."HOW DO YOU KNOW ALL THIS ANYWAY"....
WELL....I SIMPLY ASKED HER...WHY DON'T YOU DO THE SAME?

She had a contract to be a talking head, they offered to extend her contract to be a talking head and she did not renew (according to what somebody posted earlier) That means she quit. If you are under contract, and your contract comes up to be renewed and you don't sign, it's you quitting.
As far as the Caps, I'm pretty sure there is something in the TOS/EULA that you agreed to abide by, that says you shall not type in all caps.

You really are a nerd, ain't ya'?.... Ok, I'll turn off the caps just for you. We don't want to break the law now ...do we?
Anyway, you believe what you want to believe. All I know about this situation is what Michele Smith herself told me.
If you want to base your conclusion on what somebody else posted, that's your choice.
I choose to believe what Michele Smith told me herself! Why don't you send her an email and ask her for yourself, instead of arguing with the truth? It's free! That's what I did!
But like I said, you go ahead and believe what you choose to believe. That applies to everything in life.
You have the right to your own opinion...but so do I... and everyone else in the world as well. And in my own "opinion", you are still wet behind the ears my boy!
Thank you, and have a nice day!

I agree. I think I'm going to boycott the show unless they bring Michele back!

I haven't seen the new show. From the sound of it I'm not going to like it. I think Michele is the show, because she knows about the bikes and the people behind them.
I just watched a clip that SPEED has on the "Bikes" page of the NEW AMERICAN THUNDER. It has that chic from NOPI on it as the host. This is terrible, she has nothing to do with American bikes. From what I remember from NOPI (I did try to watch it a couple of times) is that her vocabulary consisted of "That's Cool" and that was about it.
The clip was not about AMERICAN bikes or builders, so is the show like that? Where is the AMERICAN THUNDER from Rice burners that is on the show.
Speed has made another bad choice for us traditional car and bike people.
