Ben Spies won the World Superbike title last week in Portimao, Portugal, winning it in his rookie season. Next year he races in MotoGP, the top-level series, and last weekend he had a one-off wild-card ride in the MotoGP season ending race in Valencia, Spain. He finished seventh after only three hours on the new motorcycle.

Ben Spies is an amazing rider. It's going to be fun watching him challenge Rossi next year.

Smile :-) Now that is appreciated and funny. How do you say hardy har har on the internet? And, how 'bout them Cowboys! #11 Williams gave it a better effort and Miles Austin got his weekly dose of touchdown. I still say Miles is a mile ahead of Williams and has a sillier grin.

Apparently, he's just rejuvenating his skin.

Sammy's eyes scare me! Like he wants to eat my soul.

Btw, is it just me or doesn't Miles Austin resemble Alex Rodriguez a bit?
