GIRL RACER asked in SportsMotorcycle Racing · 1 decade ago

The Gospel of 'GOD' !?

Oh My GOD says - in a frank evaluation on the current state of MotoGP (albeit with a grin) - "The race was so boring today, that I almost fell off at Doohan corner - just to give it SOME excitement !"

http://moto-racing.speedtv.com/article/motogp-ross...

.... and if HE says it is ...

.... then it is !!!!!

How long will it be - before we no longer see

The World's Most Greatest Motorcycle Racer (EVER) - on two wheels ???

And - for those of us who can't bare 4 wheels (should that be his next move) - are we likely to be converted ?? - XxX -

Update:

Hey Wiggysan - It'd be great to see him in WSB though he'd be against my other man - I don't know how I'd feel about that !!!!!!!

I think your right about the Rallying, he's made enough money from MotoGP to pay for the 'play' time - perhaps just until he's sure he can beat the rest - XxX -

Mr Proc - You dissapoint me - am I now one of those targeted for the hour of upset ???

"His days are numbered" - "God Killer" -

How could you - Blasphemist !! - XxX -

Albert - I agree that Mr Rossi is not the only great - Agostini in particular, Nieto, Hailwood and Ubbiali certainly earned their positions with multiple world champhionship holdings -

As for the likes of - Read, Surtess, Duke and Redman - they DO however - fall beneith Valentino !!!!

Whilst Barry Sheene may not come as close in the world holdings - he is my ALL TIME loveeerrrrrr !!

As for the Jack D - a drop or 2 when out of the good stuff - http://americanhooch.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/w... - is OK !!

Update 2:

Did you see the link I left in your latest 'SACKED' question ?? Should help with the avatar - if not email Mr Wiggysan with where your having problems - XxX -

I want THAT man soon !!!!!

Ah - Mr TWATTIE - I did wonder just how long before you reared your ugly mug again - Sooner rather than later !!!

Never the less - your answer is as valid as the next - Firstly though I must correct you - you are not the biggest Rossi fan going - I AM !!!

I do however agree that in time - LONG after Rossi's departure - a new 'Mr extraordinary' will surfice - But I still don't believe that 'many' will come close to either his multiple World Championhsips or indeed the 500cc / MotoGP Championships -

Agostini may be the current title holder

in both World and 500cc/MotoGP Championships - BUT lets not forget....

..... Valentino Rossi hasn't finished YET !!!!! http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj301/Woody2525...

Update 3:

SHUGGIEM - I agree - who's downthumbing here ???? - Come on show yourself !!!!

Everyone's opinion is a valid one - (lol) EVEN if it is a wrong one !!!

Though I suspect Shuggiem - you got the thumbsdown not for agreeing with Twatty at all - but you do normally give a more in depth answer with good arguable counter comments - Perhaps on this occassion - the fairy somewhat dissapointed with your answer !

Don't worry about it though - eventually the barstuard will trip themselves up !!!!!!!!!

Update 4:

TWMTS - We all like a laugh and we occassionally make harmless fun of each other - we do however, respect each other too -

I take it Mr Wiggysan is to be addressed in the correct manner from now on then ?? - I too will then be willing to draw the same line !!

Oh - and a PUBLIC apology to him wouldn't be sniffed at !!!!!!!

    I could take umbrage with you over that false claim,i.e. the worlds greatest whotsit !! we oldies have said similar,where shall I start?Stanley Woods,Duke,Ago,Mike t.B.Joey Dunlop, Barry Sheene Jim Redman,John Surtees,need I go on?,but racing will go on,this time next year ort year arfter there will be a new super hero,trust me I,m senile and see these thing thru my horn rims..You are getting withdrawal symptoms because winter is setting in.I find more whisky/less water solves most ailments,NOT Jack Daniels,its the only bad un,sent the red indians mad.If things ever get as bad as F1 then is the time to worry.Nowt wrong with S.B.racing. see you chuck.

    p.s.start a campaign to get them on the "island" not under factory contract.then lets see how good they are.Still can,change my avatar pic. XxXlrvelled the playing field for shuggie,and I used to o.k.when pubs shut at 10.00p.m.

    Source(s): thanks for those few kind words twmpts.Keep takin the pills.

    Valentino will quit racing bikes soon - it would have be a travesty if the dude had gone a few years back when it was rumoured as there was a lot still to do. I was freakin when I thougt he was gonna go but honestly in a couple of years I am thinkin' that it will be right. All things come to an end an if the dude stays too long then he will lose his magical status.

    Rallyin' - why the hell not? He has publically said it is a passion and he can make a career out of it. I think Wigglyman's take that Vale will not do a full attempt at it will not be how it pans out.

    I am the biggest Rossi fan going but I don't follow bikes because of him and there is nuthin in the world that would make me follow car racing. Bike racin' is bigger than any single rider and to my mind anyone who thinks otherwise is missin the point totally. Have you ever been to watch a rally? Man it is worse than F1 - the cars zip past in a second and you don't see them again. Makes F1 look like a night of crazed leg over with the chicks from the Corrs in a bath of chocolate.

    Albert dude is bang on too - like I said I am a Vale fan of the highest order but it is impossible to say he is greater than Ago or Hailwood in my book. As a bike racing fanatic I never got to see them race live but I have the videos and read about it - the ultimate accolade for Vale, Hailwood and Ago is to mention all three of them in the same company together.

    Edit - Shugmeister dude. Looks like you got boned a bit here. Look man I was not trying to be controversial before but I was making the point that Wigglyman was scooping points by not adding anything to the debate and acting like it was his place to control the joint. Looking back then OK so what, maybe I shoulda colled my jets so my apologies to all.

    To RacerGirlyBint - touche my dear. I'm gonna draw a line under it - you can write and say as you please. I'll talk bikes from now on as it seems like this place needs some other informed opinions.

    Addition: Wiggysan has neither a Mr in his name or is he Japanese so defiling the term 'san' denotes the name is in jest. I am not going to adjust my style of expression for you or anyone else. The only cat on here who has even remotely a real name in the pulic domain is Albert - so go blow and whistle.

    Hi Girl Racer, someone has to say it... his days are numbered. granted on the same rubber with a great bike he might win this next season. but the young guns are catching up. if he wants closer racing with less powerfull bikes, tell him to go. he is getting older the kids are getting quicker. he will get closer racing in GP. Stoner will catch up. Dovi and pedrossa will be at him too. I hope Nicky gets in there to fight with them all. and if lorenzo stays rubberside down he will be kicking a@@ too. I doubt he will race GP after 2010. I think he will go rallying. I thought he would at the end of this season, so that shows what I know. I will wait and see what he says in the middle of 09.

    But I cant wait for Spies to show up in the mix. (God Killer.)

    Edit.. there's nowt rang wiv Jack Daniels. well not till bottle's empty anywez.

    Edit 2.... Even god has to give way to youth. didnt mean to upset you. but the truth hurts sometimes.

    you can always come and show me the error of my ways.

    bring the whip. & the bottle of bourbon.

    Edit3.. looks like the Thumb fairy is trying to frame you now Albert.

    Good find Girl Racer.

    Will he jump ship to WSB after 2010 ? There was rumors saying he wanted to race the last round of the WSB, but lets face it, if Vale asked ..... he would of got !

    As for the G.O.A.T moving to 4 wheels, I think he will continue his rally drives, but just for fun rather then a full time " job ".

    The man above says it all.

    TWMTS - whats up, nothing controversial this time to add !?!

    Excellent - thumbs down just for agreeing with the guy. I thought people in here were a bit more classy than that. Yes he has been an idiot in the past but he made good points in this answer.
