Higgins, you and I butt heads because you have a habit of opening your piehole about things you know nothing about. It started with a breed of dog you've never owned and I'm sure we have been on opposite sides of the fence when it comes to motorcycles. I've quit discussing either of those subjects with you, as it's always just a waste of time.
In this case you were quick to disparage people you've never met and couldn't even name. When I pushed back on that, having actually heard their reactions, you doubled down on your ignorance. "I'm sure they are all as pure as the driven snow" you say...
I'd give you a little leeway if you'd ever met Mladin, or knew him. Or if you'd ever met and interacted with his teammates, his crew, the folks at American Suzuki and other sponsors, etc. But no, that's not part of your world, never has been. You look down on him because he's one of the most successful, and certainly probably the best paid, motorcycle racers we have seen race in the US. You know, one of those damn DEMIGODS we all give a pass to.
If you knew anything about him, you'd know he was famously private. His personal life was off-limits. Those journalists that tried to pry usually got told to **** off. He was a pilot and liked to fly himself to the races. He wasn't everybody's buddy.
He last raced for his team 11 years ago. I'm sure you were there for his last race appearance. I think I remember seeing you there. Remember? Remember what he said when he left, for good? Packed it in, flew back to California, then left for OZ?
There will be no investigation of his past associations in this country. What he did as a racer more than a decade ago is irrelevant to the Australian cops that are investigating what he may have done in NSW, 6 months ago. His alleged victim wasn't even born yet when he last threw a leg over a superbike in the country. Of course, you don't seem to like cops much so it's no surprise that you don't know how investigations work. Here's a hint; they are usually pretty well finished when charges get filed.
I'll admit I have little patience for you running your mouth about subjects you're not familiar with. It's not childish, I just think you're a jerk sometimes. Stick to what you know.
