Adelaide Sunday Mail - Frosty bags Whincup

Adelaide's Sunday Mail of 15 March 2009 has back page Headlines that Frosty doesn't like Whincup having Number 1!!!

Looks like a bit of dummy spitting to me!!

Bring it on

Peddler has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
In reading the artical i dont know how the hell you come to the conclusion that he "bags Whincup" cause i can not see anywhere that he does. All he is doing is what all good sportsman do, use the fact that he didnt win last years championship as motivation.

How on earth did you come to those conclusions from that article ??
Bagging ???, dummy spit ???
As peddler says, he is using the disappointment of coming a close second to motivate himself to work harder.
That's what any ambitious person does. Nowhere in the article is there a negative comment.

Totally inaccurate summary of the article - you must have had a VERY big night out.

Hope that the hangover clears soon.

In the meantime the article says exactly what you would expect from a professional sports person.

These are the best 'stories' that people can come up with regarding V8Supercars? No wonder the series struggles for column space

Was the article the same?

If so it was a wonderful headline designed to attract the unwashed majority who haven't a clue about anything motor racing. If it wasn't the same then I guess they reckon there are more educated people on the internet. All this is given an internet search shows that site up as the homepage for the Sunday.
