DJ (Baggio) I used to follow Formula One a LONG time ago, back in the Nikki Lauda days in the late 70's and early 80's. I even had a die cast replica of his Ferrari. I also followed Mario Andretti when he was on the Formula One circuit.

 

[baggio]

Wow that was a while ago!
Lauda was good. But i wasnt even born back in his era of the 70s. Ayrton Senna would probably be the greatest driver of all time, but he met with a tragic death. The mantle then passed on to Michael Schumacher.

I think the ferrari stranglehold has made F1 boring. There was a certain Mikka Hakkinen at McLaren, but still...

Now, was that really necessary??

He died in '94, right??

Was it a wishbone or something from the wheel base went through his brain?

He's "retired."

 

[Layce Erayce]

thats just for the last gp tho right? or has something terrible happened????

I wish JV had a ferrari drive guys!
Hes such a kick ass driver.

Mika was good no doubt. He and Kimi are absolutely the same. But i think JV is the only one who can kick MS ass as far as talent goes. Apart from Juan Pablo Montoya that is.

And Sergio, did not mean to make u sound ancient........
Being part of the 70's cant be all that bad! Aishwariya Rai was born in that era. So cheer up.

 

[Layce Erayce]

yeah he got to see her as a baby haha

baggio your not serious are you?

Mikka retired about two or three seasons ago, and was replaced with his compatriot Kimmi Raikkenon, who has a lot of his talent but almost no personality. Rubins is still at Ferarri.

 

[Layce Erayce]

How old was mikka when he retired?

 

[baggio]

Mika was about 32 i think. He didnt announce retirement. He just said hed be taking a sabbatical from the sport. But when Kimi replaced him everyone knew Mika wasnt coming back.

 

[Layce Erayce]

damn. and i kinda get the feeling schumie's never gonna retire

Ok, Being American, here is my View

I have not missed a sunday of NFL football in 7 years and have caught every minute of every Miami Dolphin Game in those 7 years.

But my passion is soccer because i actually play it. Plus I rarely miss a Juve game. My Sundays are filled with Soccer in the Morning and Football in the afternoon.

That said. This argument is like comparing apples and oranges.......Blondes and Brunnettes. I for one love Both. They are 2 completely different games and for anyone to say that one is better than the other is ridiculous. Football is a different type of game where different type of athletes are needed.

Could a Football player play soccer? No
Could a soccer player play football? No.

That's it. The person who wrote that article made us Americans Look bad, and us American Football Fans look bad. I'm apologize for all Americans that he categorized all Americans into his completely absurd letter.

Nice post Eop, i agree somewhat... though i do believe that some soccer players can play football but not the other way round
