Hack MotoGP journalist David Emmett/Kropo of Motomatters discussion

He did win the 2009 title.

Sure but he had Lorenzo who was still adapting to the tire and Stoner who was in ill-health. Go to 2010 when everyone had a full year under their belt, he never won another title again. I do agree with you that he should have retired after 2009 as it would have kept his image/legacy far more intact than what has ultimately happened now. Even though his group of fans will always worship him no matter what, he's done himself no favors in the categories that actually matter. Instead he picks battles with a rival that only becomes further motivated by what he does, and just happens to be the fastest motorcyclist on the planet. Hardly helping himself.
 
He did win the 2009 title.

And I would argue that was his best title given the conditions. However he had an advantage over most of field already knowing what the vastly different(if riders are to be believes) Bridgestones rode like and it was by far his least dominant win.
Head to head with the other 4 aliens he only eclipses Pedrosa marginally because of a championship win that's alluded Pedrosa.

2004 and 2008 imo.
 
Well aren’t we all lucky to have an authentic couch journalist like JP ........ point out the hacks to us!

Lol look at this ..... go.

A standing open invitation exists. Take it and join your buttbuddy curryfart for a little facial rearrangement or .... off.

Because Mitchell, you are a moron who are talking about 100s of millions of people. To me, who was pointing out that the 12 odd mouthbreathers on this forum think as a collective. It’s not the same thing and if you had half a brain, you would remember that I admire a lot of Rossi’s rivals.

Now run along, it must be library day at the prison or something right?

Can your sister .... and not die of aids?

Interesting that the same tiny coterie of flame-warriors go on at length about how I bring negativity to the forum, and yet, not a word from them about this guy.

There's an ignore button.

Why continually engage with a troll?

It ruins the thread so completely by wasting time responding to someone who is looking to get a rise out of you, or anyone else.

Here's a bit from Jerez 2011 that Hackropotkin wrote...

Speaking of unwise maneuvers brings us naturally to the subject of Valentino Rossi's pass on Casey Stoner. At the core of the incident lies a misunderstanding, it appears. Rossi claims that he had not intended to pass Stoner on the brakes going into Turn 1, but that he found himself going too deep and too fast, and ended up on the inside of the Australian. The Australian, in turn, says he heard Rossi behind him, and left him plenty of room to make the pass on the inside. Rossi dived into the gap having braked too late, but having been offered the inside, he no longer had an escape route. Unable to make the corner, Rossi folded the front, wiping out Stoner in the process.

Speaking of the crash itself, both men were perfectly clear: Rossi said it was a mistake, and Stoner said it was a racing incident of the type that is inherent to motorcycle racing. Though Stoner gave Rossi a sarcastic slow hand clap as he passed the place where the Australian had been left stranded, Stoner understood that the pass was just one of those things. It may not have been Rossi's smartest ever move, but Stoner certainly doesn't think it was either deliberate or aimed particularly at him.

Contrast it with what Kropo wrote about Argentina...

Were Rossi's complaints justified? There is no doubt that Márquez rode recklessly in Argentina, and absolutely no doubt that he caused Rossi to run off the track. But to accuse Márquez of doing it deliberately goes far too far. There is no doubt that Márquez is prepared to take more risks than other riders: the fact that he fell off 27 times during 18 race weekends in 2017 is ample proof of that. What Márquez doesn't appear to realize is that the risks he is taking can also impact the other riders on track with him.

He takes MM to task for Argentina but calls Rossi's torpedo of Stoner a "misunderstanding". Two sets of standards in play. Sure he acknowledges MM didn't intentionally do it, but never acknowledges MM's front tucked on the wet surface, and that it was an unfortunate racing incident. Why? Because it doesn't serve his agenda to his overlords that hold the vaunted pass credentials. His rebuke of Rossi for Jerez 2011 is non-existent with a few throwaway lines about it not being his smartest moment even though it was a move that had zero chance of sticking. Meanwhile Rossi only had to stand his bike up but refused to do so and ensured contact happened. Also if he couldn't hear MM's RCV he has to be one deaf and dumb moron. He should have been prepared for MM instead of running wide to leave the door open.

The other contrast is between Casey Stoner, that famous whiner, and Mr “this is racing”.

The silver lining of it all is that Mr This is Racing never won another race again at Laguna Seca. Sort of fitting seeing as he nearly torpedoed Stoner in his desperate attempt to get past on the corkscrew with another out of control maneuver.

Have you not seen the little yellow things they remove from their ears at the end of the race?
Earplugs are designed to stop deafness by blocking LOUD SOUNDS!
You cannot say how much noise Marquez's bike was making as he was braking for the corner, therefore not on the throttle.
Rossi may or may not have heard him, you can't say for definite either way.

Stoner heard Rossi coming as Rossi was braking for turn 1 at Jerez and was prepared to let him go by. GP bikes are loud as ...., and even Dovi at Austria last year said he could hear/feel Marquez coming before they hit the final corner. Earplugs kill the sound but not completely for these guys.

This is awesome! You hang yourself with your own stupidity, as usual. Your lack of self-awareness has no bounds. Im glad you asked this absurd question because it highlights spectacularly this very fact that you just don't function normally, you are in fact the forum .... klog. The answer stares you in the face genius, you've been here a long time doing this ..... That's the difference, you should not only know better, but you claim to be the forum gate keeper of civility. Synn has made no such claims, he is new, and he was attacked the moment he arrived. Examine your point about " differential treatment." You tried to peg me and Arrabi with some implication as your paranoid mind tried to unlock the mystery, hey maybe this guy is Rog, he's so nice to Arrabi and Jumkie, they must know something they're concealing, you never stop to think your attacks and incessant persistent trolling and chasing have anything to do with it? You're kancer the forum klog.

If you live in a glass house don't throw rocks.

If you've ever been to a live Moto GP race - you have to have noticed how insanely loud those bikes are. Earplugs merely protect the rider from aural nerve damage.

Do go on... :rolleyes:

Seriously, I just went through the first couple of months of posts by Synn and replies to his bopper nonsense were constant - but nothing more than the usual piss-taking. After a while, much like Roger, his replies got more and more insulting, and eventually it both turned racist and went even lower by (by your standards dastardly) going after people's family members calling JP's mother a whore and making the lowest comments about Walter's sister dying of AIDs.

And yet - you give him a pass because, he hasn't made any claims of possessing a minimum of human decency. This, from a guy whose most well-known bellicose war cry on the forum is "Double Standards"! My advice Sammy - is get a six-pack of Tecate and stop drinking that weak tea.

And for God's sake, you've been around this forum enough to know that regulars here can spot one of your staw man arguments from miles away. There was no implication of you being in any conspiracy with Arrib. Merely that Dimm has notably shied away from ever confronting either of you, which by itself is not much. But the fact that he went after Barry right from the start, knew personal stuff about me that people here on the forum several years weren't aware of, and his ultra-bopper rage make for a ....-load of circumstantial evidence that lead to a reasonably good assumption.

I truly don't believe Arrib would knowingly take part in such a thing, because he has integrity.


And how about this... instead of ....... up another thread, why not start a separate thread that others can ignore?

Ever stop to think that maybe people wouldn't take you to task all the time if you didn't provoke them relentlessly?

I let you answer yourself since you seem deaf to every everyone else

Just a few, yes I've heard them, close up too. A bike on the throttle is much louder than one that is engine braking.
You make a bigger ... out of yourself every time you post.

So - you're determined to keep it up. Why not move it to another thread?
The forum nanny, demonstrates how to klog a thread again. Shut the .... up Kancer. Don't reply, that will stop the cycle you're responsible for moron. The onus is on you to stop, nobody else is claiming to be the keepers of civility. Demonstrate self restrain. Don't reply, shut up and talk about racing. Don't go chasing posts to illustrate your lack of self-awareness.

Ah Christian, exactly like a blinded by religious fervor Christian, you dont see what is plain to see, downplayed to "usual piss taking", ........ you've attacked relentlessly, and you got my attention it was so outrageous, particularly when your paranoid damaged mind started conjuring boogeyman theories, in tow with ..... Machine. Go back and check when I interjected, you and ..... Machine had already registered a tally of attacks on Synn and for good measure, Albert Tatlock, who you ran off.

You take your .... to another thread psycho, you not only silenced Barbwirerider, but you ignored his plea to you and ..... machine to take your .... to the Lounge! For the most part the majority of us have been talking racing, EXCEPT: Kancer, ..... Machine, and little kancer klone. Its necessary for us to scroll past pages of pages of you in particular chasing your synn tail. Take another look, make a tally, just scroll down any thread on the last 3 months. Chasing Synn, that's all you've done.

..... Machine attacked Synn from the moment he arrived because he didn't like Synn's opinion of Stoner testing, that's a while back, it hasn't stopped since. Thee sure way to get you and ..... Machine energetic, I should add. You guys have been chasing Synn around while he's made you look silly.

Exercise some self-control. Stop blaming synn for your inability to stop responding. Act like the adult you claim to be. Shut up, don't reply. Fight your damaged brain's urge to reply. Put some duct tape on your fingers to remind yourself, don't reply, don't reply.
