EVERY LOCATION IS IDENTIFIED AS A COUNTRY OR LOCAL REGION... BUT NOT THE UNITED STATES!
COTA IS IN THE GREAT STATE OF TEXAS, IN THE UNITES STATES OF AMERICA!
ARGENTINA IS IN SOUTH AMERICA... NOT THE AMERICAS?
I PAID THROUGH THE NOSE FOR THE MOTO GP VIDEOPASS. WENT TO USE IT ON THE I-PHONE BUT THAT APP IS ANOTHER $20 BUCKS, NOT GONNA HAPPEN.
FIM AND DORNA HAVE REDUCED "THE AMERICAS" TO ONE RACE. THEIR EXTORTED PRICE FOR A VENUE HAS COST THE UNITED STATES TWO RACES. SEARCH HARD AND LONG ENOUGH AND YOU WILL PROBABLY FIND THAT WE SOMEHOW PAID FOR THE ARGENTINA EVENT. OH WAIT... 3-2=1. I GOT IT!!!
AND NOW WE ARE "THE AMERICAS". WHAT DO THE EUROPEANS NOT UNDERSTAND ABOUT OUR COUNTRY? WELL... THEY CAN'T FIGURE OUT THE MUSLIM INVASION!
IF YOU TRAVEL TO SOUTH AMERICA AND INTRODUCE YOURSELF AS AN AMERICAN , THEY WILL CORRECT YOU AND SAY 'YOU ARE A NORTE AMERICANO'.
MAYBE FIM/DORNA WILL WAKE-UP AND REALIZE THE UNITED STATES HAS SHOWCASED THEIR SPORT WITH GREAT AMERICAN RIDERS AND HAS PROVIDED THE SPARK TO ENTERTAIN A FAN BASE IN THIS COUNTRY.
NOW THE EUROPEANS EMBRACE SHORTTRACK RACING... STARTED IN THE UNITED STATES.
I WILL GIVE THEM AN OPPORTUNITY TO KEEP ME ENTERTAINED WITH MY SUBSCRIPTION TO VIDEOPASS THIS UPCOMING SEASON. BUT WITH NO AMERICAN RIDERS AND A SINGLE RACE ON THE CALENDAR IN THE EARLY SPRING, I THINK MY ENJOYMENT OF THE SPORT IS ON THE WANE. EVEN VALENTINO ROSSI CAN'T KEEP ME LOCKED INTO THE SPORT, ESPECIALLY SINCE HE WENT BONKERS IN HIS SNIVELING TO THE PRESS. HAD HE NOT DONE THAT, HE WOULD HAVE HELD THE HIGH GROUND.
SINCE BEN SPIES, I HAVE NOT WATCHED WORLD SUPERBIKE RACING.
BUT WITH NICKY HAYDEN... I'M AGAIN VERY INTERESTED. GO FIGURE.
