I'd agree with that...

I also think that while Yorgie may be as talented a rider as Rossi...

he's nowhere near the racer Rossi is....yet.

I love how Rossi (mis)pronounces Lorenzo's name.  He's been team-mates with the guys for almost two seasons and he still doesn't pronounce his name right?  That's a masterful if not so subtle dig.

Or he is purposefully calling him "your gay".

i'm sure if rossi was going to play on words, he'd do it in italian.

fwiw, the least you could do is spell "you're" correctly.  Grin

I could care less about most grammar/spelling stuff (often trying to sound less educated than I am when online), but the you're/your distinction drives me f'n crazy.  Absolutely nuts.

To keep it on topic (kinda), The Ben needs to get him sum lurnin' on the difference between well and good.  If he goes to GP in 2010, I'm not going to be able to stand his constant comments like "we did good" or "the bike was going good."  Unless he crosses the line to win the race while feeding some poor Congolese kid, he did well, not good.

Edit: Did I really use the phrase "could care less?"  Couldn'tCouldn't care less.

that one always makes me wince, too.  if you're gonna talk about yourself in the third person, you may as well do it... well.

You guys are all assuming I meant Rossi was telling Lorenzo "you are gay", when what I really meant it that Rossi was implying that Jorge belongs to someone other than himself. "Your gay", as in, this gay guy over here belongs to you.  cheeky
