ya know guys...

I've been doing quite a bit of reading about this whole thing, Smilies article and quite a few other places... and honestly... if Kawi goes... given the state of the world economy... I think the privateers are next... and with Rossi's contract up in 2010 and him hint'n that he may not return.. I think this may be start of the end of MotoGP...

WSBK is cheaper to field a team in... they're very nearly as fast... Rossi himself says it's more exciting... and if next year anyone runs away with the title... it'll be one more nail I believe.

All I can hope is that WSBK capitalizes and adds Indy or Barber to the schedule and sucks in fans that are left behind...

I highly doubt Hopper and Melandri both will find a last minute motogp ride... I fully expect to see one or both in WSBK... and honestly... I think that'd be the best thing right now...
