+1 you guys are a tough crowd. The way I see it Rossi is a legend, ( and a closet homosexual), who changed the sport and was one of a kind, till 2007. At that point being Rossi wasn't about talent anymore, Spain bottled the formula and started mass production, (that partially includes Stoner).. Lucky Rossi was a brand at that point and incorporated.

Rossi is still a great competing at this point in his career and life. That being said,

1 Rossi befriended MM and "invited him" to his ranch to ride with him. He used MM as much as MM used him.
2 To be great man, you need a great Saitan, two or more is better Rossi has that now

3 I think many of the riders of today could push their Careers far into the future if they chose to...they're all champions and world class athletes. Some take their winnings and leave some build corporations from winning, that's in all sports. Rossi now needs Moto GP as much as they need him.

4 I wish Rossi would move to the stage where he starts the equivalent of the DRE and a Moto 2 or Moto GP team. I think more people would love him.

Finally as with the "The Man that Would be King" (a classic movie) the problem comes when the person that is being worshiped blindly starts to believe himself he should be worshipped.

All the other riders, Stoner included, just wanted their talent respected. Rossi wants pyramids built in his name. Maybe people will do it for him.

Could 2017 be Rossi?s year? | Motor Sport Magazine


Dorna's fairytale title will arrive one way or the other. All of Rossi rivals compete in a hostile series. "I don't care at all about the booing." This is the message by the League's CEO, the message is, he only cares about Rossi. This has far reaching implications, as this man has the power and incentive for a windfall. It's why he brokered the deal to coerce Yamaha Marketing to override the racing team's desire not to work with Rossi, because the deal has paid off massively.

Can anyone here imagine Carmelo saying of one of Rossi's grievances, I don't care at all about Rossi's complaint? This is the man who shielded Rossi by ordering on all points gag on the media so poor Rossi could concentrate on the finale.

What amazes me most is that it happens so obviously in the open, like FIFA's corruption, so brazen, that we've become desensitized. 08, Rossi ONLY gets Bridgestone, goes on to "win" a title, nobody questions the legitimacy. Rossi is ushered by at Yamaha, becomes competitive again, hey, all the riders get an equal chance at the record books. Bridgestone is replaced by that old friend Michelin, everyone is on the same tires right?

Lorenzo will find it extremely difficult to be a contender next year. This is the effect of the hostile environment Rossi creates and is overwhelmingly supported by Dorna. Rossi has a 50/50 chance next year. One small injury or another Honda off year, it's Rossi's "title" to lose. The rigging is so obvious and brazen. Not only is Dorna in on it, but so is the chickenshit media. Keeping Rossi in his comfort zone. Meanwhile, these "journalists" rubbish Lorenzo because he wasn't funny or lighthearted enough when talking about Dorna "theatrically" assigning him a bodyguard. Or that "journalists" who asked Marc and Jorge about the extra security, but failed to ask Rossi about it who was literally sitting next to Lorenzo. These guys not only have to fight against Rossi on the track, but the entire ....... paddock, league, "journalists", spectators, and in Lorenzo's case, even his own cowardly employer.

I just mentioned it as I believe people think it would hurt his image. I think it really shouldn't make a difference and that if he is why not live free instead of behind a facade. It's also been widely speculated about. No one should live in fear.

What was said, since you can't read, is if you correct people's grammar on an internet. I didn't correct anyone's grammar; nice try though.

I went ahead and had my niece fix that for you. She said they were learning these basic spelling and grammAr rules in 3rd grade as we speak and would love to assist those in desperate need.
