Does Rossi still have a chance?

As long as Rossi rides there will be dumb ... people who think that he is the only one who has the right to win. They will make as many crap reasons just as rossi does.

The sadest of them all is the ducati has more power yet its only one ducati on the podium every race!

Stoner wins the championship Rossi fans have a cry have sook jump infront of a god dam truck for all i care. Find some more reasons
and just hope that yamaha pulls there finger out of there ... .

JUST GET USE TO THE FACT ROSSI LOST 2 YEARS IN A ROW !!

i prefer to think of it as "rossi came a brilliant second 2 years in a row" if thats how it ends up.
you really dont need to be so smug by putting rossi and his fans down to emphasize how well your favorite rider is doing

Hayden is without doubt one of the top 5 riders, he's a world champion, how can he not be? He didn't win a whole championship on luck you know, and with the right setup on the day he can beat anyone.

Rossi does have a lot on his mind and its obvious to see the Yamaha is no where near as strong as the Ducati. What this season proves to me is how good Stoner and Rossi really are.

Rossi: 5 wins and 3 or 4 podiums
Edwards: 1 podium

Stoner: Lost count of wins, but you get the picture.
Capirossi: 1 podium

Hi Rog, please don't tar & feather all the Stoner fans with one brush. Like the Rossi fans we have both the louder, more colourful & in-your-face individuals and then there are the rest.

As I said on another thread, it's not so much that anyone hates Vale or wants to see anything bad happen to the great man. It's more that many people, myself included, are pleased to see that there is finally after so many years a rider capable of taking the fight to Rossi & actually coming out on top as often as not!

I'd also like to have seen Rossi up further & pushing Casey hard (think Catalunya 07), but I guess to expect that kind of equally matched racing every weekend is an unrealistic expectation.

The new wave of talent has arrived & now it's up to Vale to see what he can do with the team/bike/tyres & himself in the 2008 season. But then we'll have Lorenzo on the scene as well so that might prove another distraction methinks.

do you now sun, i really dont think ive ever needed to put any rider down to make vale look good, his riding made him look good not anything ive ever said.

Rog makes everyone look good. He just needs to stand next to them

Hahaha, that's was a good one. Oh, I can remember a few put downs of Hayden back when he was being "lucky" and winning a title last year from Rossi.

Hey Rog, I saw your music video, and fankly, IRacers is right, you are scary man buddy.

Racejumkie, you're a champ!

Thought about politics for about a micro second when I was (a lot) younger but realised that I wouldn't get very far for the following reasons:

I speak my mind.
I'm (mostly) honest.
I love motorcycles.
I own firearms.
I can't ........ consistently enough to get elected.
Politicians generally give me the ......

Any or all would be enough to torpedo any thoughts of such a career move!

Besides, I also love what I do now...
