No more awesome replica helmets from Rossi. :'( Title: Re: Sad, sad day............ Post by: desmoquattro on February 13, 2009, 07:57:22 PM Oh the humanity...........

Title: Re: Sad, sad day............ Post by: supakpow2 on February 13, 2009, 08:08:51 PM That version is not so bad. I could live with that. But not the hopper atrocity.
Thanks for the pics Derby, I was looking for some but couldn't find any. 3.25 million for wearing the logo. +650k if he wins championship. :o I'll drink that crap for a whole lot less and wear their stuff too. [laugh] I also have to derby myself as I just saw the other thread you started about this. ;D Title: Re: Sad, sad day............

Show of hands? Title: Re: Sad, sad day............ Post by: gm2 on February 14, 2009, 10:04:18 AM I think so.. Is that the general consensus here? Show of hands? but another energy drink is a long time MAJOR sponsor of just about anything motorized, "extreme", etc.. i don't get it. the monster claw is somehow much more offensive than a pair of red bulls?

Ummm. I think so... No wait! Uh. Yes, yes it is! Yes Monster energy is more offensive than Redbull, Torro Rosso, McDonalds, sausages & Gatorade. That is what we are saying! ;D Title: Re: Sad, sad day............ Post by: ducpainter on February 14, 2009, 11:08:37 AM I have a monster t-shirt wheres my big assed check?

It's not, and you can measure it by how mis-sized each company's hats are: (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3484/3279695150_c730aa71db_m.jpg)(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3354/3278873421_b9c8df52d9_m.jpg) Title: Re: Sad, sad day............

I don't care who sponsors him. But I do care if his helmets start to look stupid. :P (personal taste, I know, but I think they are the coolest not just because they are rossi's) This is all about personal opinion here but I started the thread to express my own thoughts about the aesthetics not the politics of sponsorship. ;) Title: Re: Sad, sad day............
