Why do they feel the need to post the name of the rider who wins the MOTO GP in the headline ??

I know it is about reader view's and all that but come on ... people have the ability to record these things & dont want to know who wins until they get home & watch it on their TV.

Yeah sure I could avoid going online & looking at NZH & STUFF.co ... I tried ... until one of my 1/2 wit mates decided to go & post it on FB in the 30sec I logged on to answer an email from my brother

Does this sound kinda fair ? ..... who am I kidding ... no one round here will give two shites

I care. I have to spend all day avoiding the result, to watch the race tonight.

Well stay the fuck away from NZH & FB or your day will go to shite ... I am still awaiting a reply from NZH ... FB has said that they have seen the message

I care, too. Had that problem before here on kb while I was browsing a thread without spoiler alert. Thankfully I watched the race so much later that I didn't remember which race had been won by the announced winner at that time.

Oh I can save you time, it was Stefan Bradl; pretty tense in the final moments but he took it away with seconds to spare

Life is seldom fair ... Get over it.

And I would give a shite ... but I can't be bothered. Knowing who won is only important if you had money on the race. HOW they won is still unknown untill you WATCH the race.

You lot are almost as bad as the people who bitch about someone telling them what happens in the ending of a movie or book before they've seen/read it.

FFS. News is news. All of this faux grief about "spoilers" is a bit like moaning about the coverage of Princess Diana's death because you haven't read past the July 1997 issue of Woman's Day in your local Doctor's waiting room.

It's not on the home page that Casey Stoner won the race, you had to go looking for it in the sports section right?..

**Banditbandit** · 19th August 2013, 15:45

Fuck ... like the world will end if there is never another MotoGP race ...

Problems of the well-fed first world ...

How do you stand watching replays. Gotta be live or it's old news.
