John Terry is reported to be the first person to console Ashley Cole and Ashley Young after the penalty shoot out, apparently he's good at dealing with his team mates misses
Nice idea... But he should have asked his girlfriend to do that, it would have probably worked better
I wonder if that's what cause one of the Italian players to miss his penalty

How many times is that incorrect quote going to be repeated?
It isn't what he said, it isn't what he meant and it doesn't represent the qualities he brings to a team.
Me and my missus fav sexual possition is called the England football team ! ....Neither of us know what were doing or why were there ,theres no passion, no communication and we never make it past first stage. theres horrible dribbling and never a clean sheet .its over far too quickly and when it does end i know its gonna be another four ...... years befor it happens again !
Go whine to Casey Stoner. Maybe he will listen to you.
I can watch some of these lesser riders on the Ducatis and you can see that the bikes are, in my opinion, unsuitably set for what they want to try and do with them. I’m not saying anybody’s doing a bad job. I see these things wobbling around. When I think, clearly, if we had that issue with Valentino it’d be fixed in 80 seconds, but some riders don’t like the hardness of the bike, because they don’t get the feel. But then when they’re riding around and it’s too soft they’re not going forward either
JB is a smart and subtle man, and while it is undoubtedly not what he said, what he meant is another question, and I think its intepretation as a dig at stoner and his team (one with plausible deniability) including by stoner as jumkie has said was not that far off the mark . It was also a justified on all previous evidence expression of confidence in his and valentino's development ability. If they had fixed the thing in 8 months rather than 80 seconds it wouldn't have come back to bite him, but things were not as they appeared to him and many others at ducati.
He and rossi are particularly screwed now because ducati imo doesn't even have the power advantage gained at some cost to tractability that stoner exploited, as the yamaha under the 1000 formula can now make adequate power without apparent cost to tractabilty/handling, and they are competing against 40 or 50 years of yamaha experience and engineering as j4rno says, already enhanced by their input. If he was back at yamaha or still at yamaha it would be jorge who was his threat now, and while jorge is demonstrating he is a better cornerspeed/conventional/whatever rider than stoner I am not sure the same would be true in regard to rossi, even now.
I mistake Italians with homosexuals all the time. (Dont be offended, i confuse them with Spaniards and Frenchys too). Maybe the Englishmen thought the same too?
Ashley Cole is a ....... At least James hit the crossbar. Coles shot was pathetic ! My 11 year old daughter can kick a ball harder than that. Why the .... did they put cole in to take the shot anyway when we had strikers like Walcott and Carol there. I didn't think we had a team that would win although one can hope, but to go out like this sucks ! Rooney may as well not turned up , he has a work ethic like stoner (do as little as you can get away with).
The mother ...... cole will be at St Marys on march 30th, he better hope i'm over it by then or he is going to catch some abuse and a phlegm ball in the face if i get close enough.
Get a YouTube Chanel and make a program out of it, might as well go all out.
Believe it or not, I once attempted to do a pre-race buildup/post race analysis with a couple of learned friends (I only posed questions as they answered, plus I reviewed statistics, etc) and posting the vid of our conversation on our website. It was just too time consuming and difficult to get everybody too meet up as we all have families, jobs, etc. It was called: up2speedtv. We did it for a couple of months. But anyway, do you ever watch After the Flag (ATF)? Its ok, but they don't go much into analysis, but the show has the potential for this. However, since its a Dorna production, it would only serve as what Fox is to the Republican party, no independence. So far the best we got is Kropo's wrap up blog. Not even sure Dorna would allow somebody to use their footage to discuss, but it sure would spark lost of interest if such a show was attempted. On Speed, as you are aware, they have5+ shows that revolve around Nascar races, pre/post analysis, tech talk, game shows even, and this and that. F1 has the same .... with their pre/post wrap ups which are interesting. I guess Dorna is too busy chasing down exciting youtube clips.
EDIT: Crap, I actually found the old domain file on my old storage drive. hahaha. Check it out, just a small screenshot of part of the page; this was not the completed site, but rather work in progress. But you get the picture of what I was attempting to do. Anyway, like I said, never went anywhere. I had all these lofty ideas. Our very own Frizzle put the graphics of the rider bios together. Anyway, maybe some day when I retire to the UK and get Arrabi & Rog to field all the question and analysis, maybe include Wilski for eye candy to the viewers.

Well we have good info now on why Jlo is able to conserve tires and it's his riding style. Dovi has given a good breakdown of what Jlo is doing with the bike and how he is getting the maximum from the yam and the tires.
the bike and electronics can both be exploited, go ahead and explain Ben Spies if you think style has nothing to do with itIts all the electronics because Dovi is on a satelight bike which suffers from real wheel hop. Cal has stated Tech3 are two versions behind the factory in electronic package. Do yourself a favour and read up on Spalding, riding style has nothing to do with it.
