Is there anything Jesse James won't do...


That hasn't been done hundreds of thousands of times by other people?

Experimenting with alterative fuels?
Driving a monster truck?
Flying a 1940's era fighter plane?
Sidecar racing?
Running from the cops?


I'm sorry American Chopper surpassed him as the motorcycle building people to watch. I'm sorry Monster Garage turned into a joke when they started ignoring the budget and calling the tens of thousands of dollars in gear they bought 'donations'. I'm sorry he failed utterly on Celebrity Apprentice. Why's he feel the need to be on TV? Is he broke? Is his copper business going under?

This show, plain and simple, sucks.

Avoid a camera?

I don't like this show either but aren't you exaggerating a bit? American Chopper was great the first seasons but now it's just ridiculous. It's like an MTV Reality show really. Stupid feuds and day-to-day stuff. Hey, I thought this was a bike building show.

American Chopper has jumped the shark years ago so giving it as a positive example nowadays is a bit ridiculous.

I've never enjoyed Monster Garage to be honest but how did he fail on Celebrity Apprentice? Just cause he didn't win? Hey the guy stayed drama-free for most of the season and finished 3rd. Not bad. The only reason he didn't get into the final was because he refused to sell his wife out. If he promised a Sandra Bullock-driven event for the finale Trump would have kept him I think. But he refused to use her in any way and that's why he didn't make it to the final. He still came inches close with his dignity intact so I hardly see that as failing.

I think Jesse James is a cool and down to earth guy. He's a bike builder who is married to one of the biggest movie stars around (yes, I know she's not as big as she used to be, but everyone knows who she is and that's star power) and yet he seems chilled and down to earth. Yeah this show is scripted and a bit on the ridiculous side to say the least but as he said with Letterman the producers interfered a lot with it (as they do) so they probably forced the scripted parts in.

Overall Jesse went from building bikes in his mom's garage to being rich, famous and married to Sandra Bullock. We're on the internet talking about him on some message board. Clearly he's done something right.

I didn't use American Chopper as a positive example of anything. It was just something else that moved Jesse James down the popularity ladder. I have no idea how he failed on Celebrity Apprentice I wouldn't watch that garbage if you paid me. But yes, not winnning, that's failing.

You seem impressed that he's married someone famous, I don't know why that impresses you or why you need to repeatedly throw her name around in some odd defense of Jesse James.

If he were chilled and down to Earth would he really feel the need to get his face on television over and over with increasingly ridiculous programming? What's next a spot on Celebrity Wipeout?

I would place a very large wager that he would not suck another man's cock.
