when rossi leaves motogp will be better off . enough of the bs just look at his history. was football done when jerry rice retired basketball michael jordan. nope. motogp will get rid of the boppers and racing will go on.

so who do you think will have a bigger impact on the sport MM or lorenzo winning the championship or Rossi retiring, he is the highest paid athlete on two wheels for a reason.

when Rossi was out injured in 2010 Auditel TV viewing figures in Italy showed that the viewing dropped by 50%, that's huge think about it 3 million people could not be bothered to watch it. His retirement will have a massive impact on the sport.

I guess I can see rossi as the "Michael Jordan" of Motogp . surprising you would admit that Rossi is that awesome. maybe subconsciously you're gay for him and cannot admit it?

Jordan was the most iconic player in the NBA of all time no one has ever come close. still rakes in 40? million dollars every year. Everyone loved him and still does .

come out of the closet and admit your fiery man love for Rossi and drop all the venom and hate .

highest paid how do you know this. the salaries are kept hush hush. if you include endorsements yes he is highest paid but i dont think his contract from yamaha is higher than mm or lorenzo right now.

my point was that the biggest name in the sport retired. i never questioned rossi was the biggest name in the sport. you would have to be an ..... to say that.

the gay point come on dude get real already if i called rossi gay (not that i care if he is or isnt where there is smoke there is fire always bringing young men to the ranch to train lol) all you people would jump all over me. actually somebody did say it and the next comment was what does his sexual preference have to do with it

i'm just surprised that Crutchlow actually gets paid.

i believe the rossi net worth the contracts are not right. lorenzo contract is 12-15 million from ducati. mm contract just came out and only went through 2016 this says 15-17 it was 14-16.

vinalas too is off this list is 2 years off i think

bradly smith just signed with ktm this is way off

lol crutchlow gets paid.

yea i figured no endorsments. rossi makes anywhere between 30 and 40 million a year all in but the base salaries are off. lorenzo was at about 10mil from his last yamaha contract.
 
my point was that the biggest name in the sport retired. i never questioned rossi was the biggest name in the sport. you would have to be an ..... to say that.

I was questioning If it were possible if maybe you were unaware of your homosexual love for rossi. Like maybe you were attracted to him - and frustrated because you haven't come to grips with your latent homosexual attraction to the greatest Gp rider in history. It would explain why you refuse to give any ground and seem overwhelmingly obsessed with the guy.
You seem to turn every discussion into a venom spewing hate fest of everything Rossi. It's not logical to feel an urge to malign a racer simply because you disagree as his status or even think he is a terrible racer-and think he should be in last place . I'd guess almost every person on this forum dislikes at least one racer , but they don't make it their mission in life to squash every positive thing said about the person.
Questioning your sexual orientation may come off as ridiculous , but I know Rossi didn't kill your dog or spit in your face while slapping your mom. It is the only thing I can come up with. :D
 
mac people that bring this stuff up usually are talking about themselves so either 1 you are gay not that anything is wrong with that or you like farm animals out there in indiana. i could see both for a guy like you
 
LMAO

I must have hit a nerve

so you're saying when rossi pulls the leathers out of his arse that doesn't get you hot?

you got it bad.
