I agree. Kevin made some good points. Puig went straight for "You're a crap rider and my guy is awesome!"

Which has make the beast with two backs-all to do with the points Kevin was making and if anything bolstered his case about Papi Puig and his all-midget, Menudo-esque racing squad.

yup.

wrong!

this is the twitbook generation, where all thoughts must be expressed in a public forum.

no filters!

back in the day you got punched in the snoot for haning the inability to keep yer trap shut, now-a-days, you just get unfriended by people who were never your friends to begin with.

the eworld needs an epunch in the happysack app that really punches.

^ What he said. Ten bonus points for bobspapa's team!

This whole conversation is like parents getting into a fight at their children's soccer game.

There is no right or wrong, there is just stupid. If you prefer one guy over the other in this matter, then what does that make you? I just know that I just watched the Turd basically dominate a race packed with riders that have more talent in their nose hair than Kevin and Puig combined.

Poopie Von Schmile only won because.......

While I agree with you for the most part, I disagree about the talent part. You're comparing completely different skillsets.
One is the ability to get the electronics dialed in while the other is the ability to push the ragged edge of competition knowning that the next corner could see you highsiding into the upper troposphere.
I don't doubt that Dani or JLo or Marquez could ride those bikes. But the comparison of skillsets is sort of skewed based on the nature of the beasts.

quoted for massive amounts of truth!  +eleventybillion

I knew someone would call me out on that, but when you add Kevin and Puig's talent, Puig's negative talent brings Kevin down below the alien's nose hairs.

Good point.

My argument could be reversed too though just to be fair.
