I would agree with this. We are all different people at work , as apposed to on a day off, and chilled out.
Also the lost in translation comment is very valid. I studied Spanish for 3 months and in that time learnt a bit, For example we might say ," i am 20 years old", in Spanish it is" i HAVE 20 years.". we might say" Do you speak English?" they just say "speak English?" (which might be interpreted as abrupt/rude ) we might say for example , my mum's pretty , they say "my mum, she is pretty", etc etc , and from experience trying to not say anything daft or ridiculous in spanish, was hard I once read a sentence about eating suitcases... i meant biscuits :giggle: Jorge has learnt over the years to be careful in what he says , and the Jorge we see today is uber cool

I agree about everything but the last part, he's cool in person but in press conference he's well out of his comfort zone and says stuff that is aggranoying , brilliant rider , clumsy in media. Just my opinion of course.
I can just post the entire Monty Python argument sketch on a loop if you like, which would summarise nearly all your posts on this thread and elsewhere.
Attempting to bore me into submission with content free posts hasn't worked so far and will continue not to work, btw. I guess as a tactic it at least avoids the internal contradictions in most posts which characterise some of your comrades in arms.
I have never accused you of having no arguments, confining myself to pointing out the flaws in most of those arguments.
I had thought Daniboy was a separate poster, but if you are now informing me otherwise so be it.

seek some help fella.
that's quite the imagination. some serious freudian .... or something.
Defense mechanism
3. Projection is a form of defense in which unwanted feelings are displaced onto another person, where they then appear as a threat from the external world. A common form of projection occurs when an individual, threatened by his own angry feelings, accuses another of harbouring hostile thoughts.
Personality: Freud
...blocking out of consciousness some of the ideas associated with the expression of those drives. Other methods of defense include repression, a kind of withholding of conflicting ideas from recall; projection, the attribution to others of one’s own rejected tendencies; and reaction formation, turning into its opposite a tendency rejected in oneself—as in excessive generosity as a defense...

Oh man. I was expecting a better comeback than that. Why don't you take that weak stuff to the park where maybe the squirrels will care.

No offense taken. Those are some interesting tidbits of sport info. Lawn bowl? I thought that was something families played in the back yard.
I want to say that anyone who dies playing cricket probably had it coming - but I'm sure some fool will take it seriously.
I'm actually surprised that there aren't more Futbol guys lying around in comas considering all the bouncing of balls off of heads; maybe they should have to wear helmets.
To be fair, while there are few deaths in MotoGp, there are numerous deaths in the small time club racing scene in AMA that don't get much press. We have numerous deaths of high school kids playing American football - and those numbers are huge compared to the dearth of deaths in MotoGp - but then it's a question of odds, isn't it? There's tens of thousands of kids playing amateur sports and only a relative handful who are racing at the GP level. If there were as many people racing MotoGp as there are playing Futbol, the death statistics would necessarily be higher.

A few sentences will suffice as there's not much more to say since you were proven wrong, and refuse to acknowledge it.
Ah maybe so, but the tweet you posted was a number of months old so you must have enjoyed the reading Talps.
BTW, how is Qld these days or have you moved ?
Oh, And that is Sir DJ Gazzy Deaf to you
All fair Steeve, and just as JL seems to rub you, VR also rubs people the wrong way for many, dare I say it, similar reasons where people question what is real and what is fake, or where comments are pointed and yet reported as fun.
FWIW, I have heard VR make excuses and I have heard JL say that he was not good enough on the day and so really it all comes down to that which we hear or want to hear (I am sure you an I could hear the same comment and yet interpret differently)
As for the trike thing, I do not see it as demeaning but hey, if you do then good for you as it is just one of those interpretation things (I see it as a being followed by sign but not demeaning)

Totally Libby, human body language and language barriers will lead to misinterpretations of comments and/or the intent
Personally, whilst I find JL's interviews somewhat sullen, I enjoy that which he has to say and whilst sometimes he does put his foot in his mouth, he is also the first to quickly apologise if or once he realises the misinterpretation or that he was out of line.
Whilst to many he may well be THE ......, for me he is growing on me in the way he has handled the .... fight that was not of his doing and the subsequent fall out.
Yep, basically heart attacks and cardiac arrests and interestingly, the last I saw was that the percentage numbers was decreasing as younger people took up lawn bowls
It is actually an under-recognised sport in terms of danger in some places as it is not a global sport
There was a study or statistic done years ago that placed cricket as having far less time than baseball in terms of batsmen reactions as the ball is bowled around 140 - 160kmh from a distance of around 19 metres (from bowler arm to batsman position) with a deviation factor off the pitch which varies from pitch to pitch.
Hughes was the highest profile death and was struck under his helmet, but in my local region the club I played has suffered death on field (health related) 2 years ago, with the year before that another guy was killed when struck on the herat. All of these occured in what would be termed park cricket.
I recall reading somewhere that a number of high level soccer players have been found to suffer a level of brain injury from heading the ball, which would not surprise me
That said, they also have a number of health related detahs on field (one only last week in the Belgium league)
Far more deaths occur at club level and actually if you think of it from a pure death or injury statistic, MotoGP is relatively low on the numbers.
I read on the weekend a change.org petition for changes to be made to Barbagello raceway in West Aust as the 5th rider died on the weekend in 12 years at the track which is concerning as they are being killed through striking of solid barriers

Methinks you have it wrong
The last thing any hater will want to do is be near VR were he to win as afterall, if we so hate then why be involved (I mean, not many haters of Rossi will troll his twitter account now)
Besides which, I suspect that VR will not be the one doing the Jizzing but that will be done by the likes of the masses masturbating in unison at the prospect that the great man is back to his best. So I suggest taking a towel with you to the living room as you sit and watch as afterall, you wouldn't want to make to big of a mess now
Your contribution to which has done nothing at all to refute the arguments of those you oppose.
