    Indy MotoGP - spoiler alert

    Marquez is unstoppable! It's an unreal achievement to this point and he truly looks as though he could carry it through until the end!

    And boy was there was action between all levels today. The crash in Moto2 was scary, but it was awesome to see Paseni (sp?) get up and walk away after the race was red-flagged. Then the couple crashes in GP. I'm sad for Bradl as I was hoping he'd finally have a good race, but he is certainly struggling this season.

    Class act by Colin Edwards wearing the camo leathers and helmet to give tribute to our troops.

    Re: Indy MotoGP - spoiler alert

    Anybody got a link to watch MotoGP online? I don't mind a few days delay as long as I can avoid spoilers like this one... I don't have a TV and the 666sicco seems to have been shut down. Please help those of us in need.

    Edwards is a class act everywhere! Not sure if it'll get broadcasted, but there was a farewell event for him at the track Saturday after the races that was awesome to see, in Colins words, It Fucken rocked!

    Watch the race. At least the first half. Nothing to yawn at.

    Would it be exciting if Lorzeno or Rossi got flag to flag victory?

    Too bad for him. Expected much more of him. Unfortunately, he has had too many crashes this season.

    Yep, very rarely do I watch practice at all, nevermind live, but I happened to be around that day. I screamed like a little girl.

    They have the slow-mo of it in the weekend compilation, pretty unbelievable.

    I watched it, I watch them all (we have the GP subscription). First few laps of the races are usually entertaining, then it's a snooze fest. I am more excited to watch the FP's and qualifying....

    Bah! He's gotten pretty good at crashing. I'm sure he knows how to land properly by now.

    Enjoy the MM dominance while you can. It's like watching man land on the moon. Historic.

    Here's CE's race lid. Pretty sweet.

    Oh, and can I say that I think Colin's lid looks pretty cheesy without pissing off all the military and right wingers around here. It looks like a vynil wrap, and not even a good one.

    I'm with ya'. So over the camo gear look anyway. Nothing against the military or people supporting them, but it just screams "I play paintball" on anything other than a real soldier. Let the bashing commence, I can take it, I was once married...

    What's your suggestion then for a instantly recognizable way to show appreciation for the US Armed Forces via a paint job, leathers, helmet, etc? One that holds up at both 5' away and 100' away? At 0mph and at 200mph? Honest question.

    Maybe stars and stripes motif? (he's done that a ton as well) That could be construed as a purely 'go USA' theme and not necessarily military based.

    the blob style camo is out, digi is what everyone uses now, but i understand that from a distance and even at speed its easily recognizable as camo.

    I actually thought the leathers were cool. Maybe the lid should have been hunter's orange?

    Good point actually. Not really sure I have an answer. Maybe something more specific like an armed forces logo or something? I just know I see a lot of that camo gear on a lot of people in general who aren't using it to show support for the military in any way. Just seems so over done outside of the military realm.
