I have no dog in this fight and I think its pathetic that the Hayden/Ducati thread got turned into another Stoner/Rossi pissing contest, but comments like that scream arrogant prick to me. Undecided

lol.. well, ok.  but it was a real question.  maybe he never has.  GP racing used to be like this all the time; it hasn't been in recent years while wsbk is consistent in this manner. 

lots of folks just started watching racing relatively recently.  those folks would be more likely to think there were over-the-top moves in that race.  there weren't.

and it's my thread so we can talk about whatever the hell i want until there's more hayden news.   cheeky Grin

All true.  But, as you just demonstrated, its possible to make that point without coming across as a know-it-all douchebag.  That's all I'm saying. waytogo

have you watched a wsbk race?  ever?

Yes I have, and I have watched GP for years.  Passing off track is cheap in GP & SBK, just my opinion.  If someone did it to Rossi I'm guessing you would probably not feel the same, but I'm just assuming your lips are glued to his ass  Kiss Grin

Do you actually believe that it is "passing off track" or more that he misjudged his speed going in and had nowhere else to go?  "Passing off track" implies that it was on purpose.  No racer in their right mind would CHOOSE to go through the dirt, especially when that turn happens to be a 30-ft elevation change.

And, FTR, Rossi was in front before he left the pavement, so the pass was already made. Wink

Well I suppose your right that it wasn't intentional so it wasn't a pass off track, but my lips are partially glued to Stoner's whiny ass so.......  cheeky

on the contrary -- i WISH that kind of thing happened more often in GP.  i don't care who wins, i just want to see racing like laguna in GP rather than only getting it in wsbk/wss.

you can disagree all you want, it doesn't make you right.  Grin

see schwantz's comments above.
not everyone feels a need to be right.

it also doesn't stop us from having an opinion.... Grin

Arguing rossi vs stoner is better than crickets chirping.  This board is a snooze without these pissing contents.

At least we aren't arguing tires!

That reminds me!  I think Rossi is getting better tires from Bridgestone than Stoner is and that why he has been doing so well.  It's all a conspiracy I tell ya.
