I wanted HAM to win it so bad at the time because I felt he deserved it more...but now that he's been dominating the last 3 years it would have been nice if MAS had won.

I still think he should have pulled aside and given Massa the victory in Abu Dhabi 2014. But I guess that's why he's a world champion and I'm not.

How often do we hear that kind of denial and then 3 weeks later the story that was leaked ends up true. He says he hasn't accepted but that doesn't mean he won't be doing so shortly.

I was there. #RockvilleF1

Amazing how the Brits forget about the end of 2014 when talking about HAM's reliability "luck" this year.

Also yes, HAM shoulda let Phil on through and waved.

It seems like the bulk of HAM's fans are like dat.

Damn near as delusional as Red Sox fans...

I had someone at work ask me today about that ****. I said if it doesn't have wheels and an engine IDGAF (well cept maybe for hockey and non us football). Though NHL hockey gotten shitty. World cup hockey is where it's at. Open ice and no clutch/grab

yup playing on olympic ice (200ft x 100ft) vs NHL ice (200 x 85) separates the thugs from the skill players. 15ft is a huge difference.

Yeah expansion thinned out the talent pool and the smaller ice allowed for moar thuggary.

NHL really should go to the larger ice, I think it would actually cut down on injuries/concussions but owners will never go for it cause less seats for asses.

That's what I meant when I said it was boring. Throw the damn ball! Takes too ******* long for anything to happen.

I think baseball added a pitch clock a few years back but it need to be 25 sec between pitches or automatic walk.
