Default The Real Deal!

Ben Spies. On any Sunday.


On the pole at Indy; the first rookie since '08, the first non-factory rider since '08. No matter how the race comes out, he's proven himself to be a racer.

Stick a fork in the Dr. He's done. No doubt he had a great career, but it's over.

Leno looks wrecked...

That darn little Spaniard jockey won. Too bad Nicky knocked off his knee puck. He looked good out there.

Ben controlled the race like a veteran. The possibilities are surmounting quick. Rossi is in no way over he will be a dominate threat that will make Spies earn his worth, and that will make him "the machine" stronger in his quest for gp domination.

He did; the only reason he didn't win is because Pedro had a much faster bike. He blew past Spies like he was standing still. No doubt when he's on the factory team next year he'll win. Barring an accident or similar unforseen impediment, I'll bet $14 he wins the championship next year.

Rossi is toast. His body is running headless around the paddock while his eyes blink and his mouth gapes. He's aquired a taste for opiates and ether huffing after wreck, and he's now in his Deconstructionist phase. Look for his appearances in low-budget porn films, vodka ads, etc. in the months ahead. Then he'll be arrested in either Hollywood or NY for DUI. By mid-2011 he'll be checking in the Betty Ford clinic after an "intervention" by his team.

Works for me, I'm tired of looking at his skinny Italian ass every week as he bounces his "The Doctor" logo back and forth across the saddle.

They need to make it like sports car racing. Weights set with the Rider ON the bike. Pedrosa weighs what 95lbs soaking wet?

Didn't you lose more than that the last time you shaved-off the full beard?

You are klazy Ken, precisely why I like you. Your perdictions sound as though there right outta hollywood. But I could imagine them coming to fruition,..possibly
especially if he needs time to figure out the Ducati. It's going to be a real test to see how long it takes him and the team to go good on the red monster. The bike has the power, and from what Iv seen- at least this year-I'd say it's just shy of the power of the Honda.

Ben was and has always been one of the smartest racers I have witnessed second to Eddie of course. Once he saw the gap deminishing I'm positive Ben knew what was coming. Watching him control the gap to third (Lorenzo) alone showed that he will be a true champion. He's got championship prowes.
