i seriously rooted for the guy when he came back and he and julie krone both had that amazing summer but i can't support him anymore nor do i support him even being issued a license in any state in the country! if this was any regular non high profile rider they woulda most likely been banned for life long ago. i think part of the reason pval continued to fuc up was cuz he knew racing would always eventually welcome him back with open arms. maybe kris turner will give him a mount down there LOLOLOLOLOL HAHAHAHAHAHA wonder if shes even still in business(long story)

He had a gel put in a knee joint? Wonder how long before that puppy acts up again.

Don't worry, he'll be way too hopped up to feel it.

You'd be surprised how well patients say the artificial cartllage (knee jel) works out. I watched P Val last week at Zia and he had 3 wins the first week
on mostly chalk riding for Henry Dominquez.

I could have sworn I read somewhere that his agent had targeted November 14th as a potential return to Hollywood while he battles the stews on the details of the preliminary license.

PVal is a very talented rider with a long history of relapses but somehow he gets more than his share of grief and speculation even when he has passed
screens for years. It's kinda interesting how some jocks who have fallen are given far more the benefit of the doubt with less time in sobriety.

That must have been why he shaved every hair off his body when he knew he was subjected to hair follicle tests. It must have been because he was completely sober.

I don't get it. He has a license, he gets hurt, then all the sudden he can't get a license again? Just let the guy work. He obviously has his demons, but the man has talent that most other jocks could only dream of having. As long as he keeps clean - so far as I know, there's been no allegations otherwise in the 11 months he was off - let him do his job.

He let his liscense expire , that is why he has to re-apply . By letting his liscense expire he no longer was subjected to drug tests at all , he didnt have to report to anyone, now as I see it , if a person was truly sincere in saying that they are clean and all they want to do is ride then why would they not re-apply for their liscense when it expired . Oh maybe it would be because while their ribs were healing up they could do whatever they wanted and well hell as long as the knee hurt I might as well not re- apply because then I would have to go test and not that im doing a ny drugs that I dont want to go test its because my knee is sore and I cant ride .
