Seems he had a bad crash at X-Games practice, taking him out of the comp. That's a bummer - was really looking to see what he'd pull out of his bag o tricks this year. Read more here

Thats too bad... I alway look forward to watching him. He is such a showman. Get better soon.

oh well.

won't be the same X GAMES without him!!!...hope he gets well soon!

this is the sort of thing that fuels his fire and makes him want to mash when he gets better. that dude gets better with age.

That's a pretty stupid comment ant dog.

The guy ruptured his liver, a 1/4 inch deeper and it could have killed him. Wether you like Mirra or not, that's not the attitude a self proclaimed "bmx historian" should have.

I personally am a fan of his, and, agree with lukedogg, he's gonna recover, train harder than ever and win it next year!

Man look ALOT of guys get hurt, I am not bashing him, but the stuff happens all the time.

btw I told ya that jersey is gonna rule the bmx world. Go scotty!!!!!!!!

No where did i say i do not like him. geez man chill out.

No biggie Ant dog, I was just saying that the dude getting injured was a big deal to a lot fo folks because he's out of the x games and it's the year of the debut of his mirraco line.

A lot of people might get hurt, but that doesn't mean it's ok.

It's just crappy to say "oh well" when someone almost dies on the eve of the biggest contest of the year.

whata bout "Dennis" cracking his face on the handlebar landing almost on the flat during that vert-comp man!! that will leave a mark for sure.

I'm sorta perplexed at the "oh well" thing as well...
any injury is serious man, you know that as well as anyone, ya nutjob.

aawww...lighten up...its ok to hate or not be a fan of, it does cross the line however when someone actually wishes for someone elses misfortune or injury...I think antdog is more of a non-Mirra fan, which is OK 'cause its the rivalries that make it fun for the spectators...its always more fun when its "your guy" against the "the guy you hate"...you gotta have both...

I was not dismissing his injury! With so many guys going big and burly it does not surprise me.

I killed Stevie Ray Vaughn.

I was going to wear my cool SRV t-shirt one day, changed my mind, and blammo. Plane crash. Heard about it on the way to work that day. I still feel really bad about it.

hey..
