good point! hahaha Mike Mladin, fast, total .....

Baffy, you get my MO. Well done sir. Btw...

I liked Doohan though, and liked him more after he retired. How can you dislike a guy that had a stipper club?

Mat Mladin. You like Chad Reed too.

You make some good points and a bit of hopeful ones, which is fine. So, why is it then you don't concede when he's made a few missteps? It seems very hard for you, mental, mr. sqatz, and bm, to name the main ones, that defend those missteps? Seriously dude. You just made a Michaelmesk quality post, but I can't say that's the norm. I think if we just recognize when it happens, call it, then move on, it would just remain a minor hick-up. Instead, the resistance to the obvious becomes overblown because of the insistence that it never happened, or it was misinterpreted, or whatever justification applies at the time. The double standard has become amusing to me. Especially when I get the desperate poster to defend their position which leads them to become flustered.

"Defend misteps"? Well, if we didn,t, there,d be no debate, and you would miss out on the joy of jousting with your antipodean friends.

ok ok, The Hayden Incident Casey done wrong no doubt about it.

...........................but Why did Nicky kill Casey,s dog?? You haven,t answered that one yet

How do you know that exact conversation hasn't happened already?

cos you'd still be lying in a gutter in Darwin ....... grant you, they would at least have cared enough about you to pour a beer down your next each day, to provide sustenance ...... as they would say.

I rest my case ( or Baffy's really ) ..... Jumkie, Australia is full of such folk. As odd as it sounds to you, your gushy over sentimental/emotional/buddy/buddy persona would not go down too well here ( except in Oxford Street Sydney ). If I thought hard enough, I bet I'd remember working with a person or two for a whole day, whereby during that day that person may have only uttered one word, and even then it was probably a half decipherable "mmph".

They'd have to pump you full of Ritalin just to make you seem a mere hyperactive/over-reactive, by Aus. standards.

You mean mean when he kicked the stripper of stage and started stripping himself? I do believe that was at the honey pot in darwin?

Jumkie you enjoy these threads way too much

Personally, Stoners attitude doesn't particularly worry me, i don't agree with a few things he has done, but overall... meh.

Maybe it doesn't rub me the wrong way because I'm Australian? (not in a fan boy way, but that i see so many people with a similar disposition every day)

On a serious note, can anyone name a successful australian motoGP rider who was 'liked' world wide?

Chad Reed, hahaha. Dude he went Evander Holyfield on Bubba when he got desperate to knock him off his bike. I'd say of all Aussies, he's the one that least represents you guys (barring Mr.Squigz, who has no character). But he's your countryman, so I get why you guys root for the dude.

Mat Mladin was certainly the fastest dude in the AMA (barring St. Nick & Pies), but dude couldn't say something positive to save his life. Hell, if Stoner raced here he would have said, ....... that Mat is whiner.

Spot on Rog. I can't think of one person (bar Pete, I guess

) who didn't/doesn't like Mr. Bayliss. He was all the success and none of the ...... attitude. Real man's man. Certainly one of my racing heroes.

Everyone's different, but what annoys me about Casey is he frequently says (or its commonly known) that he hasnt got time for the press and that he's not interested in that side of the sport when its clear that he does infact love the press, he might not be like Vale waving his .... about every 5mins but he uses the press as a conduit to fire fairly barbed comments to other riders, usually 46.

The 'war of words' makes it interesting but its the common misconception by his fans etc that he's a private guy, and quiet etc that kinda frustrates me...as a person though he seems ok, his attitude on track however is pretty shocking IMO.

AC/DC, Bayliss, and Goose from MadMax are the only Aussies that never whined

Ah, probably why the aussies here ignored him even tho most race fans liked the guy.

If I ever meet a nice motorcycle racer, I'll let you guys know.

Mind you, at least there not as bad as the ....... journalists. They really think the ....... universe revolves around them. If egos had mass, then it probably would.

I've met a few nice racers. But yes, its rare. I've met one nice journalist in the UK who is now with us here in the US. However, judging from his girth, things could probably revolve around him.
