Let me tell you what this "article" is about. Right now Rossi fans are discouraged, having suffered through The Great Mugello Disappointment, they are lost emotionally, wondering through the wilderness. This is dangerous for Dorna, because discouraged fans means less audience. They can't afford the Yellow Hordes to tune out feeling like this year is a lost cause, they need HOPE! Right now that points deficit is a clear and present danger to viewership. If you read the reactions of the Minions, they are discouraged, distraught, they are in need of a reason to tune in!
Mat Oxley to the rescue, buck up, keep your chin up, Dorna will deliver next year. His piece is such an obvious appeal to: stay the course Rossi Fan. He even throws them the bone, Rossi is not out of it even this year, but alas, NEXT year is ours!
In my best Braveheart voice:
"FREEDOM!"
Rossi’s chains will come off next year!
