Forcada on Stoner

Jumkie said:

Forcada is right about raw talent, I've said before, Casey Stoner is the only "alien" I've ever seen (i never saw the Golden Era of racing) but his prediction is flawed! There is no way Dorna allow Stoner to win as many as he wanted because as Forcada reveals, Stoner (like Marquez, and frankly like most all of them) is tethered to the front tire performance. Stoner won 1 solitary title on the pig Ducati, and that had to do with a front tire that had up until that point not been manipulated to accommodate Valentino Rossi. Once that changed Stoner started crashing, like he did on the 3rd tier 06 tires. Have we all forgot that Dorna jettisoned Bridgestone in favor of Manipulatichelin? Casey Stoner today would have been suffering from the same bogus ........ show we are all forced to witness, this is personified in Marc Marquez having to settle for podiums and top 5s because the front tire is as predictably as a woman (no offense ......). We are all forcefed a .... show where the most talented rider on the current grid is castrate by tire proxy.

I understand what Forcada means, and I agree, Stoner was special among the an elite class, but the reality is we must factor in WWDorna, into the picture. Marc Marquez is routinely choosing "medium" tires because even the nomenclature of the "hard" tire has been gaslighted.

So no, I disagree that Casey could have won all the titles he wanted, not in a rigged game. Maverick Viñalez could easily be leading the championship today if it weren't for the brazen tire manipulation. Forcada is talking in terms of idealism not reality.

Boring, as usual Rainman. I never disagreed with Foreskins opinionfact. Your just being a contrarian ... as usual.

We can't forget thrillers. Gone .... must be about him

You are predictably, impressed with yourself though only one other person on this forum thinks anything you have to say has any substance. A quorum of two who think juvenile word play, shallow jokes using pop references to teen MTV culture from 30 years ago is somehow to be perceived as biting critique and edgy humor. Time for you to brush the potato chip crumbs off your chest, get off the couch and realize just how irrelevant and out of touch you really are. You're not edgy or biting. You're just a run of the mill misanthrope.

I don't disagree with anything he said. Sorry to break up your circle jerk. Carry on.

Doesn't Forcada know that talk of Stoner is prohibited?

Is this when we question his commitment and mental toughness?

I made no comment about the article or Stoner's career, nor do I have the desire or any need to further debate these matters in his 5th year of retirement; he is however imo occasionally relevant when people like Forcada make comment, and in general in regard to Ducati since he is by far the most successful Ducati GP rider and still engaged by that marque as a test rider.

Amusingly and predictably, despite being so offended by my suggestion you are more obsessed with him than I am, you once again cannot stay away from a Stoner thread.

Ah I don't login for 24 hours, and the usual suspects wasted no time with their usual antics.

I guess this is what happens when school isn't in session year round.

I ask you seriously. You guys make a couple jokes direct at me and I can't come back with jokes not directed at you guys? Especially since my opinion and jokes aren't what is found offensive? I've never offended you personally.

I'm not at all surprised by your lack of an actual answer. I have attempted to keep this new war from happening unlike the other party.

If you insult people don't whine when people strike back. What makes a person think they should be able to .... up a thread with the same old jibes and then suffer no blow-black? Why don't you start an insult thread or a I hate Stoner thread and see who wants to participate?

Who did I insult? I have been waiting a month for that answer but none will tell me. So give it up all of you. If thats what you need to tell yourself so you guys can make jokes about me and then blame me good for you. Pat each other on the back for your great work. You can't blame me for this thread the very first reply to Provol was directed at me and I came in with jokes offending no one. You all aren't fooling anyone.
