funny, I find myself not being the only whom similariy have their fav, rider likes and dislikes.
I admit, I really started tuning into racing in 2004, even though I had attended some early day GP and AMA races at Laguna in past years.
Those earlier days, I was not a Rossi fan when he was the one on top. I had mostly rooted for NH primarily, but had also rooted for other talent as well. My respect for Rossi and him starting to grow on me wasn't till he jumped to Ducati, and became a fan of him since.
NH had always been my fav rider to root for, then Rossi, and from race to race, there were others too. But, Never Pedro (for obvious reasons), nor Stoner, nor Jlo. Although, like many others, I did start rooting for Pedro to win something, towards the end of his GP tenure.
When NH went to WSBK (sadly), I then mostly rooted for Rossi, and some of the others too.
When MM came on the scene, I immediately liked him, due to his raw talent. I lost some respect for MM when he started pulling sh*t with Rossi. But, I still respect him, due to his talent over everyone else.
Currently, like many others, keep hoping for Rossi to win that one last title. But, we all know that's not going to happen. Let's be real. I still root for him, having some hope. With new talent within the field, I now root for some of them, over MM. Anybody but MM
