Oh, I thought it was a solid contact for 2011.  Then he's gone.  Unless Crashy McSmurfdick asks for too much scratch or they finally realize the Puig is such a dick that it's not worth it.  Wow, a Pedro/Stroner Repsol pairing leave Ducati in a bind.  Marlboro would have to throw down some serious $ to get either Rossi or Lorenzo.  

Barring a miracle healing period, I don't think Rossi will ride another race on the Yamaha [evil]

the term 'blank check' has already been used... (for rossi)

plus, to the degree that puig has any goodwill left @ repsol (who knows..?), a stoner-pedro team would be good for him/them.  

unless they can get rossi back i REALLY don't think that repsol will get rid of pedro.  he does win races, he's spanish, and he can be that other 'top spanish rider' that gives jorge a run for his pesetas.

that's not to say that pedro himself wouldn't necessarily leave.  like, if he could get on an M1.
Like this is the racing, no?

I actually doubt that it would be good for repsol to have a Lorenzo/pedro team. Lorenzo would poach off most of Thumbelina's Spanish sponsors. Also Puig being on the Honda board will do anything he can to sabotage this. And on the horrible chance that it does happen, I would hate to see Lorenzo being under any sort of influence from the man that has shown to be MotoGp's answer to Don King

i agree with you... but since you appeared to replying specifically to what i said, why are you talking about a pedro/jorge repsol team?

It was the general talking about Repsol and Lorenzo-ness. I actually don't disagree with anything you said. Also, it's easier to hit quote on the BB than reply.

Don't worry, I only pick on you when it's about Elbowz  ;) [beer]

Not Hatin'. He's the other guy I root for in the championship. I'm just amazed at how the man is able to turn proud, grown ass men into Jonas-brothers type fans. I'm also still a little sore about Haga.  :-*

Sometimes I like to dress up and put on make up in front of a mirror and reaffirm that I would do myself to cheesy 70's music. I also keep naked, chubby, young women captive in the well in the basement.  ;D

(Even I got a little disturbed while posting that)
