What will I ever do, just found out the other day that occ crap shut down and now this. What is this world coming to? No more BS chopper soap operas on TV? Damn. Atleast we still have that POS sons of anarchy crap. I guess well all just have to worry about our own lives now and not live through others.

He made some great looking parts and bikes. Not that I wanted to own any of them. It was cool seeing some of them come together.
Too bad for his employees though.

Kind of a shame really, I know alot will say he's a sellout, but he never made it a secret that he was in it for the money. He's a tallented self made man. I only wish I had the ***** to make it the way he did. I know he tried to return to his roots a year or so ago by not selling parts anymore, but I guess there is just not a market for crazy choppers anymore. Anyway he is very talented, inspiring, and artistic, and I'm sure he will be fine.

I enjoyed watching the Discovery Channel specials THAT MADE HIM FAMOUS...he is good at building choppers but like said b4 the $60k bike scene has since died off...I always laughed at people who ran out and dropped $30-$40 bucks on a WCC tshirt but never even owned a motorcycle same with the OCC scene..but then WALMART picked up the rights to sell both clothing lines so EVEYONE could afford one!! Jesse does have a great taste in Hotrods! As far as the women in his life...I agree that Sandra doesn't fit his life-style...I think Kat Von D would be a blast!!! or stick with the strippers and prostitutes and just RIDE motorcycles...TMO

I would like to see something like HD Mods TV, like Horspower TV on Spike.

Mods about gearing, engine builds, pipes, and dyno tuning. I don't need the OCC drama or other drama filled show that aspires to the 100K purchase crowd.

Just my 2 cents.

Anyone else think the new law that Arnold signed had a little bit to do with this, as well as the other reasons above?

I'll go with "other reasons above". There's just so many people going broke. And those that do have money don't want to spend it for various reasons... one might be it is safer to wait and see what happens to the economy and another might be that it looks super ostentatious to go throwing money around when others are so hard hit. JMHO.

Everybody doggin' on Jessie for the same **** most of you would do in that position.

He came from nothin'. Made it by using his brains. He likes to screw good looking girls....I'm sure he's not the only one. His wife took off for 9 months and went to Georgia to make a movie and left him at home with the kids. She should have known he wasn't going to be down with being a house-husband. She wasn't around, and he wanted some pu$$y...alot of guys do the same stuff, you just don't hear about it. How many of us have girls throwing themselves at you??? He gets that everywhere he goes.

Kat Von D is a weird looking tramp, but is probably just the kind of girl that can deal with a guy like JJ. If it wasn't for all the fame etc., he'd probably be running with an Outlaw M/C.

Most of the bad stuff I read about him smacks of jealousy. The guy is an EXPERT FABRICATOR.

The chopper craze died that's all. It will be back in 20 years. It already has come around TWICE....it'll be back.
