Since lots of lurkers don't express their opinions with words, I am interested to see what the non-lynchmob might have to say. I have never posted a poll, so if this doesn't work, I may need some help...
You left out the "Max set up his bike so he was already ticked off that he had to pay full boat" option...
You left out..."Personally I couldn't give a shit, but Yates shouldn't be suprised by the public lynching he's getting right now. Simply for his blantant stupdity, he deserves what ever he gets." I think, people are more thinking "Dumbass!!!", than "Poor Fania!!!" or "Kill Yates!!!"...
Yates yes......i think Yates is a pole.................. oh.....i read the question wrong............
I'm with Jay and Rodger. While I was really disappointed in Aaron's behavior and agreed with the fact that there should be sanctions imposed on him, I think both his sponsors and the AMA have "done the right thing" at this point. It's done.
This is the cool thing about posts. Supposedly, "Everyone" thought he should be banned from racing, and only a tiny handful of people didn't think what he did was that big of a deal. All of the people lynching him give that impression on this BBS. According to this poll, only 37% of people think that! +/- 60% feel he has been punished more than enough, don't see what the big deal is, or want him to win the 04 Championship.
+1. I actually thought the $5K fine from the AMA was a little excessive but not enough to select that option in the poll. $25K and 1 race suspension seems fair.
By skewing the poll questions you can obtain the results you want. 4 of the 10 posters here could't vote for the obvious chioice: Punishment adequate, on to the next fiasco.
