MotoGP
I thought I'd start a new thread for Moto GP as I can't stand football.
Rossi did a superb job today at Le Mans, and he looked so damned happy on the podium. As for Lorenzo, what a man! Finishing third with two fractured ankles - I did think, however, that the plastic chair on the podium was slightly OTT.
Great to see Rossi back to his old self again.

PS: Forgot about Colin Edwards - fine performance finishing 2nd.

Moto Gp is great racing, really exciting with loads of overtaking.
It awesome when these guys go into corners sideways and spin the rear up all the way through keeping the bike in balance - really is seat of the pants stuff.
Rossi is a bikers icon - awesome control one of these guys who can pull time out of the air - like Senna used to, Lorenzo - real iron man (bit like Mick Doohan in the 90s racing with a broken leg!)
Formula 1 is going in the right direction lets hope they keep going.

I totally agree about the sideways stuff. Garry McCoy was the master (from the recent lot) as far as I'm concerned. I believe he came from speedway racing, and the only way was sideways. He had a bad accident (Le Mans 2002?), and was never quite the same afterwards - he seemed to have lost his confidence. Apparently he's riding a Triumph in the Supersport World Championship now. One of my favourite motorcycles with one of my favourite racers. I hope he can do it. Shame we don't get it on TV here.JW wrote: It awesome when these guys go into corners sideways and spin the rear up all the way through keeping the bike in balance - really is seat of the pants stuff.

Bless you Vital Spark...I'm coming out of the closet too..I hate football, what a dull sport. Bring on more Moto GP and F1....Nothing better than wathing these on a BIG screen with surround sound. Brilliant race on Sunday...very talented riders. I always laugh when they take off their helmets, and look like they are 12 and havent shaved yet... Make football full contact, and maybe it would be worth a watch....Better yet, switch to ice, sticks, and pucks.
Football is crap - most of the players are jumped up slime balls, like to cheat, show no respect for the refs or their peers. At the highest level the game is a joke. Generalisation there but so many people who have been football fans for years are becoming bored with it. The guys who played in the old days must be disgusted with what they see going on now.

football
Cowtown if wit was s*** you would be constipated
I remember Brands in the old days used to be some excellent racing there.
Football as a sport it is entertaining unfortunately money has taken over and now the rich clubs buy success.

Woke up this morning breathing that's a good start to the day.
