Don't get me wrong! I'm a Robby Gordon fan 110% - But I'm a fan of the USA! If Miller has the chance to take this home for the USA, then I say Go Miller Go! Yeah I wish Robby could take the win home! But in my book he already has! Look what he’s done with his own team in the past 5 years. I mean damn the guy has taken on the titans of racing (VW, BMW, Mitsu) and all their money and out run all of them with the exception of Miller and De Villiers (VW). Team VW is scared to let the boys race because they can’t afford any more withdraws.
I say Miller hammer down!!! Let’s show the world and especially the flicking French what America is all about! Let’s take the win from the Euros and show them we’ve got the talent to win races in any venue, in any place in the world.
Holy Cow we’ve got two boys from the USA on the podium! When the race finishes tomorrow I’m pulling out the campaign and toasting to the USA!
100% Robby Fan, 100% pride in the USA!
GAS ON ROBBY!!!

Exactly. Two Americans on the podium, there's no way that doesn't kick ass. And we even had a good showing in the bikes this year....

If there were a major issue with RG, it would probably be showing up in Breaking News pretty soon....

thats what im telling myself but knowing he is not going to get the same coverage as some others, it makes me worry a little. I hope your right though!
