Everything is bigger in Texas or some shit, especially Slaw Dog’s, and that’s why we have three rounds there. I think. Anyway, Arlington 2 is tonight, and Slaw will be predicting stuff with 99.9 percent accuracy.
If you forgot, this blazing column is brought to you by the fine people at FLY Racing, who have stepped in to support Slaw and #slawnation couldn’t be happier. Visit www.flyracing.com and support those who support Slaw.
As always, we’ll review my picks from Arlington 1 and then move on to Arlington 2.
Prediction
Look, this rivalry is certainly real and goes back a few years. It got heated over the weekend at Daytona, but I think that Ken has had a few days to reflect on it, and both dudes are veterans and won’t risk destroying their championship. So, yeah, nothing happens this weekend out of the ordinary.
I mean, I hate to say I told you so, but… HAHHA kidding. I LOVE TO SAY I TOLD YOU SO.
Slawdiction: 10 out of 10.
Prediction
Eli Tomac got his season back on the rails at a track that, honestly, he’s supposed to win at. Daytona and Eli go together like a fine dog and Slaw. This weekend we return to a more normal supercross track and I think Eli finishes around third.
I mean, I hate to say I told you so, but… HAHHA kidding. I LOVE TO SAY I TOLD YOU SO.
Slawdiction: 10 out of 10.
Prediction
Oh, boy, the injuries have piled up in the West Region and it’s looking more and more like the 250 East Region: aka, very top heavy. My podium prediction this weekend is pretty much a lock, so consider that when reading this. Justin Cooper, Cameron McAdoo and Garrett Marchbanks will round out the podium this weekend.
We all make mistakes, and well, this was Slaw’s mistake.
Slawdiction: 0 out of 10.
Prediction
Yesterday, the moto community came together and got Bogle a much needed second bean bag chair for his apartment. We’ve yet to hear from him, but we’re pretty sure this will propel him to a season best finish this weekend.
Hey, at least Justin got a second bean bag chair. That’s better than a top 10, right?
Slawdiction: 0 out of 10.
Prediction
It’s been an up and down year for Mr. Fried, but I think he bounces back this weekend. LEAD SLAW LOCK OF THE WEEK ALERT: top five for Anderson on Saturday.
I mean, I hate to say I told you so, but… HAHHA kidding. I LOVE TO SAY I TOLD YOU SO.
Slawdiction: 10 out of 10.
Now on to Arlington 2.
Nothing Happens with Ken and Coop
Copy and pasting this:

Malcolm Bounces Back
Malcolm was the victim of Mr. Fried on Saturday, and then he tried to get him back and well, it didn’t really work. Malcolm bounces back tonight though with a top five.
Getting Swoll
No, not hitting the gym hard, you silly doggies. Jalek Swoll has really turned the corner this year and I like what I’m seeing out of him. Top FOUR finish tonight. LEAD SLAW LOCK OF THE WEEK.
Webb Keeps Rolling
Yep, he does it again. Another win! You heard it here first.
Kenny Podiums
HUGE RACE FOR KENNY. He has to stop the bleeding. While I don’t think he wins, I think he finishes runner-up to Cooper “Walking in a Spider” Webb.
