I've been trying to work out what the 8th title celebration might have been, and where they would have situated? I've sadly had to resort to google, and the only thing I can find that relates to 8,...is eight famous people whose names suggests seafood! So, that gives us;
1. Buster CRABBE, actor
2. Hamilton FISH, statesman
3. Samuel GOLDFISH (real name of Sam Goldwyn), film producer
4. Bishop PIKE, clergyman
5. E. P. ROE, novelist
6. Robert TROUT, news commentator
7. SALMON P. Chase, Secretary of the Treasury under Lincoln
8. Theodore STURGEON, science fiction writer
Perhaps we can assume that the title was not decided by Valentino's misfortune, nor Nicky's good fortune,...but more a case of a lack of fish costumes!

'Cos that's about as realistic as some old drivel I hear!

Hey pete, do I sense alittle bit of apprehension? Perhaps you’re worried of being replace by a new nemesis? Don’t worry pete; we can still throw insults at each other.

Babelfish would have to start saying alot more mindless cheerleading stuff before I would leave you buddy. I'm loyal to you for the moment.

I'd just hate to think someone was throwing insults at you that I hadnt thought of, that would hurt.....

It's just that you have such a remarkable similarity with another guy who just left another discussion group a few months ago.
The two of you are both just as
- humble
- open minded
- free of that conspiracy ........
- and huge rossi and pedrosa fans

so I thought that you must be the same guy, or someone started cloning people without telleing. But I guess I'm wrong and leave it with that.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Goatboy @ Feb 11 2007, 09:21 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>Rossi's outspokenness alone would change F1, it's that simple.

Only if he is winning races, which I doubt he would do. I don't mean this as a slam on Rossi. F1 is all about the car; the best driver won't take a Spyker or an Aguri to the front. I doubt any of the winning teams will take a risk by hiring a driver that grew up on motorcycles and beached a Ferrari in the gravel during testing. Rossi is a giant in the Moto GP paddock; however, to assume he would swagger into the F1 garages and turn everything upside down is a little far-fetched.

Oh, well who was "MN" then? I think I would like to meet this fair and balanced guy. (Wow, another guy who doesn't align himself to the popular opinion here, how unbelievable, so much so that you think it was another me; what does that say about you?)



Also, if you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen. I realize you may not appreciate or agree with my opinions, but at least be prepared to back them up if you decide to throw yours into the pot. Don’t take it to heart, we can argue all day, and I'm good for it, or we can concede to a "friendship" of symbiotically opposed views. Can't you see you are making poor pete worried?

I prefer to be “friends” like pete & rog. After-all, Valentines day is next week and I'm feeling in that loving mood.

Kind of a clash in this opinion… “As for F1, if Rossi went there the sport wouldn't change” and “But thousands of people would watch it just because Rossi was there”… that implies a transformation in F1 within itself!

"thousands of people would watch it"...



You misunderstand me. the audience would change for sure, a lot of Rossi fans will follow him wherever he goes. But the sport itself would not. The rules would remain the same and the races would have a similar theme to them. He would get some coverage and probably have some interesting interviews, but that wouldnt be a huge deal in the greagter scheme of the sport would it.

I've been hearing this speculation about Rossi in F1. It’s an interesting topic. I would certainly watch F1 if he raced in the series, for a while at least (F1 is simply not that popular in the US). But I don't think other than MotoGP fans tuning in would you have a C change in the sport. I mean, would (assuming he could) Schumacher make a splash if he would have moved to GP? Yes, but would it have "changed" the sport? I'm not so sure. Perhaps we think our guy is so good that he can transcend all sports in our scope of view.

That comment was regarding the impact rossi would not have in F1. But like you say when Rossi leaves motogp it'll be a little odd, but the true fans still want to see a bike race. there is no shortage of characters on the gp grid, and to say it would be dull without number 46 is rediculous. Unless of course you only tuned in to watch the Rossi show, and not the motogp show.
