He's very good - no question - but his personality reminds me of a pet goldfish.

Spies is only like that for the press. He loosens up among friends. However he is completely focused on the number 1 plate and it would be good to stamp a good ole USA on that regardless of his quote worthiness or media charm.

For me, the nationality of the racer doesn't matter. I am rooting for the one that has talent on the track and personality off the track (on camera too).

This year I'll stick with Haga (the crazy Motherf%&#@)

Oh I have always been a Haga fan, but I didnt club race with him and watch him mature into a world level competitor. I wish he were heathy and was giving Spies hell. He really does deserve a championship of his own...

Nori really does deserve a championship, and i know he moved to Ducati to accomplish that.... but its gonna be really ironic when Spies shows up and replaces him and wins one with Yamaha.

That's what I've been thinking all along...if Haga loses to someone on a Yamaha I bet a lot of Japanese fans will be

.

I like Haga but am pulling for Spies all the way.

Spies likes to have fun...here's a blurry shot of him I got at VIR last year putting on his "O" face.

There was some other riders there...must be rookies or something.

Spies and a few others...

The snack cart...

I agree spies is all business at work which I respect but there is a fun side to him. We were also at VIR last year. My daughter wanted to get his autograph so we stood in the LONG line so she could meet him. When we got there she was so shy she hid behind my back. Ben stood up reached around me and tickled her. He said something like see I don't bite I tickle

I thought that was funny and sweet. My daughter now watches every race and screams at the TV for "Her Ben" to win
