Silly season around the corner
 
any body got any silly predictions that might just come true? Any silly rumours?
Top of the silly season rumour seems to be about Micheal Jordon (basketball) and him forming himself a MotoGP team, or buying one up. He could afford it, be interesting to see Nike leathers and boots, and Mr Dantin would like the money??

[b]SCOOP ~ EXCLUSIVE[b]

The DSC are going to buy a 999 for Baylissboy and Steve M to use in endurace races and for Weeksy to use at the Manx Gp!!!!!!!!!

Is that silly enough?:lol:

Scott Smart to Suzuki BSB ride with JR
Laverty to ride a 999 in Monstermob
Glen Richards and Dean Thomas to Hawk Kawasaki (to be renamed Highside Kawasaki with those 2)
James Haydon to Suzuki Moto GP?? or perhaps Hodgson
Colin Edwards witha Yamaha USA offeron the table as Rossis team-mate.
Troy Bayliss to Yamaha?
Max Biaggi to "oficial"Honda Repsol team Hayden stays but team boss gets fired
Hagga back to MotoGP on a Yamaha?
Melandri or Xaus to get the #2 ride in Marlboro Ducati MotoGP team Kagayama goes MotoGP with Paul Denning
Regis Laconni missed the team bus out of the AMA race and was found wandering somewhere near a town called Paris, Texas wearing his red Ducati Corse baseball cap, all he could say when picked up was " i very 'appy"

Emmett confirmed as going to Virgin Yammy.

Makes you wonder what would have happened if Edwards had originally gone to Ducati? Having said that it was WSB not MotoGP....
