Prayers are answered!!! Nicky is da man!!
So where's the party??
:thumb: :thumb: :thumb:
Yeah, it's cool!
I know went to RRW and bam there it was could not believe it.
That's why I didn't touch a computer since EARLY this AM...
Freaking AWESOME!!! Could have had a bit more drama, but regardless, I'm so glad that Nicky brought it home...
Stay tuned, there will be a signed 2006 MotoGP pit vest, signed by the ENTIRE Hayden Family, up on ebay in the next day or so. Proceeds to go to the Red Flag Fund...
That's just awesome, and couldn't have happened to a nicer, more deserving rider. To take a World Championship away from the best who's ever been is the accomplishment of a lifetime.
Too damn bad 99% of the people in America don't know or care....
World Champ!!
Actually i was hoping for the Rossi/Haydon battle
But Holyshit Batman Did Bayliss make a statement or What!!
Way to go Nickey! :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

Oh Yea! One-off race, First GP Win! Bayliss Rules!!!
Bayliss absolutely amazing! Rossi makes a huge mistake?! NICKY IS CHAMPION! Almost makes up for my Tigers series appearance.
to all the non believers,and :spank :ass::and to all USA roadracers at all levels, :boink:
wooohoooo!
sorry Guy, i couldnt help myself.
Don't you wish this had been spoiled to you..on CNN as it should have been?!!! I hope he gets some press this week here in the States.
It's just so awesome for him and his family. I just about cried for him.
My Hayden will be sporting her limited edition World Champion Nicky Hayden onesie for the rest of the year--or 'til the end of the week when she grows out of it.

It was very refreshing to hear Nicky's post race interview where he gave credit to his local boyz, and took a second to thank God, instead of the endless list of sprocket, spring and bolt sponsors. We have a hero in our sport that brings a little bling to the USA as a place where we still place value on things you cant stuff yer pockets with, like family, friends and faith! What a time to be a roadracer! Art.

No problem, in fact I will join you WHOOOOOHOOOOO!!!! Nicky rocks. And What about Bayliss!!! Ducati has to be asking themselves why he is not on the MotoGP squad. I could not believe it when he went back to WSB. The dude was on the podium enough to show he had the skill. Now it is an open and shut case
Maybe but Ducati signed Stoner... I guess the goal is to keep making Loris look as good as possible... but I do think Loris will top alot of podiums next year... not to take anything away from Casey of course...

Nor in the New York Times (which did not one but two stories about Nicky the US round out here at Laguna). Unbelieveable. :wtf:
That was one heck of a race. I may be a Rossi fan but I was glad to see him finally lose. Congrats to Nicky and can't wait to see what happens next seasion
I don't understand why you people find it so amazing there is no mainstream coverage of Nicky's championship. This country is cage oriented and could give a shit less about anything on two wheels unless it's a chrome plated tractor. :jerkoff:
Get over it already, we'll never be mainstream and quite frankly I like it this way.
Congrats to Nicky! Until Rossi went down, Nicky was closing in on Bayliss. I think he would have had something for him. At least the way things ended, the Pedrosa incident nor the yellow flag incident decided the championship.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Jay Leno invite him to be on his show. He's had all the Hayden boys on there before.
:cheers:
I saw a quick little blurb on the news here in West Palm Beach Channel 12 which is one of the local tv channels here. At least there is a little press of Nicky Hayden winning the Championship in the mainstream sports news. How cool is that??

dam, another reason your making me miss living in west palm beach.
