Well if your Valentino Rossi im not surprised, he's like the michael shumacher in motorcycle racing, so why not get paid just less than half as the guy.
Moto GP is on the rise, it's up there with formula one in my eyes.

I can't be bothered to make a fancy link for my 411, you got to live with this one, lol, mind you, you might get freaked out at first lol

Man, that is a lot of zeroes right there

Please don't forget me. { I'm going away. }
I'm taking a taxi to Kentucky where they don't even know all about me. I just need to feel s a f e.
I've got a thousand sweaters, and shoes, and paintings to hide the skeletons in my way.
But he said, "Slow down, slow down. Think it over, we've all got wretched closets, but silly girl pride kills more than Aids lately."
I said, "Come on, I thought it over. I don't wanna die here. I have no desire to get m♥rried."
Every night I pray for you, don't believe in heaven or that it could be a happy place.

I'll tell you what. As much as I love Schumacher, Rossi is the more exciting, more talented, and most dominant pilot of any racing series. I can only think of John Force whom has been more dominant in a racing series. Rossi puts on a show for the crowd. He's brilliant.

Wow! Golfer endorsements get high revenue. Golf is a very expensive game though.

Brian Grant earned a lot while practically being on the bench for Phoenix.

It's also unfortunate that Penny isn't same player as he was in the past.
