In other news, that big polish producer that r@p3d a 13 year old girl nearly 30years ago has still not been brought to justice. He is still living the life, producing big hollywood movies and receiving oscars.


Roman Polanski

Roman Polanski
Imagine if that were Spike Lee or Ice Cube? They are big shot producers too but will they have the ability to escape the legal system and hibernate abroad if they committed the crime Roman Polanski committed? I highly doubt that, the FB1, CIA, MI5 etc would have brought them to justice 30years ago.

Look I don’t mind Tiger compensating her for given up her career to be a full time mother, but for some silly law to come and prove to me that she deserve half of my wealth… I would rather burn it up than hand it over…

Ex-England player Ray Parlour had to pay his ex-wife £400000 or 25% of his earnings till the end of his football career WHY? She claimed that she helped his career… I was thinking so what did coaches do…

The guy that invented the black bag, went through a horrible divorce with his wife because he reduced her monthly allowance from £8k to £5k, she took offence and wanted half of his wealth! Why?

Around 1994 an Indian guy that won the national lottery (Approx £11m) but at that point was going through some difficult times with his wife, but his wife was advised that she could get half of the money. But they got married in India so he fled back to India before the wife could log a divorce proceeding.

The case of a sex attacker who went to jail and the wife divorced him, half way through his sentence during one of the days that they are allowed out into the public, he played the lottery and won the big one! Now what gives the wife the right to seek part of this new found fortune because that’s what she did….


Talking about Nigerians treating women as second class, tell me how does majority of women who are richer than their husband behave? Most especially when they own the house… they have the most horrible words to say to a man who is not as successful as them….

Thank you and nuff said.

Sagamite:

She was the one that gave him his skills and physical prowess?

She was the one that fed him the nutrition for his energy and physique?

She was the one that drove him to youth academy in the cold (probably wet) mornings of a Saturday to hone his skills and then came back (or sat in the car) to take him back home?

She was the one that mentored him?

She was the one that bought him his football boots and shin pads?

She was the one that helped him with his illness and injuries that could have ended his career?

She is the one that trains 3 hours a day with him when he finally got a football contract?

Daft laws!

Even his parents can not dare claim 25% and they probably did most of the above which are the critical drivers of his success.

Imagine such daft laws

Sagamite:

Don't get it twisted, I don't support Naija divorce laws. But it will be retarded for us to replace it with other retarded laws. People should get out of marriage what worth they put in it, and should then live a life afterwards that they can afford themselves (except their ex, independently, wants to make it better). silly laws like "she is used to a lifestyle, so you should continue funding it after divorce" is moronic.

Me likey. Yea I don’t get dat tho. Which kain yeye tin/law b dat. Me think both men + women shud do prenup. Equality in d eyes of d law doesn’t mean he/she shud take half of everytin during divorce – sum daft ppl shud take note of dat. i no sum ppl r obviously gold diggers But also saying dat a full time hse wife/husband shud leave wit d lil or nutin (wealth, moni, fortune) dey contributed durin d marriage is also unfair n daft. anyhoo Chris rock also went on 2 say dat y do women kip saying in court during divorce dat your honour during our marriage I am/was accustomed to dis & accustomed to dat. He said Wot d 4k is accustomed to?

He said he’ll also like to go 2 court n tell d judge “your honour check dis out, am accustomed to 4king her 4 times a week, i'd like 2 cont doing dat 2x a wk. I don’t mind paying her alimony but I want sum p.*.*.s.y payments”. He also said If your worth 30 mil n your wife wants half, u aint gonna starve but if your worth 30,000 dollars n she wants half, u might have 2 kill her. rotflmfao. u need to c chris rock’s stand up comedy on dvd (if your in2 dat kinda tin) = dude’s hilarious n raw. Download/buy dem if u want: bigger n blacker, never scared, one other one and his latest one: kill d messenger = hella funny


sum bloody nutters/sissies n sexist dey come nl dey chat rubbish wey dem no fit talk face 2 face wit their mama, sistas, gf, aunts, colleagues or wives. hisssss. lemme get outta hia b4 i murder person/get really pissed bout sum ppls backward/daft mentality grin

ceasyc:

But also saying dat a full time hse wife/husband shud leave wit d lil or nutin (wealth, moni, fortune) dey contributed durin d marriage is also unfair n daft.

She should get what she initially put in plus compensation for lost earning based on her realistic earning potential (not his wealth) plus compensation for realistic period of likely unemployment (before she can get herself back on her feet) also based on  her realistic earning potential.

If it is unrealistic to expect her to get herself back on her feet e.g. she has been a housewife for 30 years and is now 52 and it can not be realistically expected she can be employed as an accountant at her level again or at all, then alimony based on her realistic earning potential. That is, if the guy is wealthy enough to pay it.

If you are a Nanny, your compensation would be based on Nanny earnings judged on the end of the Nanny spectrum (high-end, low-end etc) you fell in before the marriage and how salaries have progress within your segment peers over years.

Same for a Hairdresser, Accountant, Doctor, Teacher, Pole dancer, Cheer leader, Model etc.

If you were a skank that has no education and previous career but just married a rich man and has been a housewife all her life, courts should only award her minimum wage (she better have worked him for enough diamond gifts during the marriage).

Fck Lawd, this nigga stole my line and is making money out of it.  angry

I have been saying that for years that it is only fair if she is getting the court to force him to pay for what she is used to, then a court (a place for justice and fairness) should also force her to provide him with what he is used. Fair is fair. She should be forced to bone him and clean up his apartment if she wants him to provide what she is used to.

ceasyc:

He also said If your worth 30 mil n your wife wants half, u aint gonna starve but if your worth 30,000 dollars n she wants half, u might have 2 kill her. rotflmfao.

You should leave a marriage with what you put in, not based on what your partner sweated for except (s)he WILLINGLY wants to give you.

People should live by their earnings and live a life they can afford themselves. That is rationality and fairness. Two things you would expect a court of law to enforce.

Tiger Woods takes out $54 million mortgage on new property


In a story first reported by TMZ and confirmed by Yahoo! Sports (via Waggle Room), Woods has taken out a $54.5 million mortgage for a brand-new mansion he's building on Jupiter Island, Fla. And no "go-for-the-adjustable-rate-and-pray" route for Tiger; no, he intends to pay back the loan by Jan. 15, 2016. (See, folks? That's sound financial strategy. If you've got a spare $54 million lying around, go ahead and get your mortgage paid off.)

• At standard interest rates, Woods will pay about $1 million a month in mortgage payments.

Re: Tiger Woods, Wife Officially Divorced by Sagamite(m): 4:22pm On Oct 28, 2010
As I said earlier, Tiger, Rooney, Beckham and co are really mugus for marrying early when they are rich and then cheating:

https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-502120.96.html#msg6679405

You know you are young and rich and women will be throwing themselves at you and you can not resist, why do you go and marry young then?

Here is the LEGEND they should have learnt from.

The Legend called Eddie Irvine


- “I love beautiful things. I don’t apologise for that,” says Eddie, who has homes in Milan, Miami, New York, Dublin and Oxford, plus a Falcon 10 jet and a collection of Ferraris. “If I’m sitting with my girlfriend and a beautiful girl walks in, I would certainly make a point of commenting on her.”

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Eddie Irvine pulled up a stool at the exclusive Cipriani Bar in Manhattan one evening back in 2006 and began to contemplate his surroundings. His mind wandered amongst the high skyline outside, the high skirtline inside and a party he'd be attending later that New York night. Suddenly a lady approached, gently whispered that she was drinking with Pamela Anderson and said the former Baywatch actress wanted to meet him. But being Eddie Irvine, he had to follow his own rules when it came to the opposite gender. Number One: women want what they can't have.

So off he went to his party, leaving the woman once voted the sexiest ever to ponder his refusal. But he uses it as an example of how his self-discipline and female enticing work. Within a couple of months, tales of Irvine and Anderson were filling entertainment columns and gossip blogs and they quickly became a little closer than friends. He was hitting it.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- When having a few pints in a bar in Milan, he was asked how he gets on with his Brazilian girlfriend, which has been asked a lot since she speaks hardly any English and they have never been seen talking. His reply? "I get on fine with her, she's a bit thick and she's not great looking, but f me, she's dynamic in bed".

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- At Monaco, Liz Hurley (who knows bugger all about F1) was asked which driver she liked. She said that the Irish guy was pretty sexy. Irv's response? "Well, she's only human."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Q:  Is there any truth in the rumour that you are seeing a supermodel.
Eddie: "Why do you think I am flying back to London?"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- On a wednesday afternoon, a lot of girls were waiting for him. He went, and one of the girls gave him flowers. She wasn't very beautiful. He looked at the flowers, took it and gave it to another girl that was beautiful.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Q. Eddie, you've been making all the headlines recently. What about the reports that you've been relaxing in St Tropez? They say you were in bed until three o'clock in the afternoon ,
Eddie Irvine: It's hard to relax in St Tropez, believe me! I was in bed all day and all night , 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Before the race at SPA, at a party in the paddocks there was Miss Belgium. She met all the drivers, found them very polite and well behaved and then she met our Eddie who was nonchalant.

She asked him :"How can I seduce you ?"
Eddie's answer :"Take your clothes off !"

Of course she got upset being asked that in front of everybody but the next day they were walking hand in hand so she got over it.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- On reports that Madonna had a crush on him: "She obviously has impeccable taste in men"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- "I used to think that, now I've calmed down a bit though. I would sit there and I could have a beautiful girl with me but the one over there is better because she wasn't with me. I'm not making that up, I'm not proud of it, it was a fact for me."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Eddie was being interviewed by CBC covering the race weekend, asked if he liked Montreal, Eddie replied he "loves french brods".

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- After yet another DNF in 1996, Tony Jardine  (journalist) confronted Eddie in the pits for a live interview. He asked Ed a couple of hard-hitting questions and managed to keep a straight face as off-camera, Eddie poured a bottle of ice-cold water down his trousers.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- On marriage: "It probably would be a very sensible, logical thing to do but I like the freedom. I like to go where I want to go when I want to go and not annoy anyone by doing it."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- After the Grand Prix a pretty surprised italian journalist said: "Well Eddie, you won, " and Eddie replied in Italian: "I'm not only handsome!"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- When Eddie was interviewed by German RTL after coming in second in the Monaco Grand Prix, he was asked, "You were very competitive in todays race Eddie.  What comments do you have for that?"
"Well, its because I'm a big w@nk3r". ,  and then just stared, smiling at the interviewer.
To which the immediate translation into German was, "Eddie said that he has a very good car". That was live TV.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- "It's all a game isn't it? Work's a game. Making money's a game. Chasing a girl's a game. If you're winning, feeling good, carry on."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Reporter: "You've been quoted as saying, as well, that on a night out it's better having your mates to talk with and to leave your woman until you're going home."

Irvine: "I believe that, yeah."

Reporter: "And that you're better off going for average looking women because they are easier."

Irvine: "Yes"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- When Eddie Jordan (motor racing boss) asked him to take part in a photo shoot of all the British drivers before Silverstone 1994 he replied, "Do I have to? Send out some f**ker in my helmet, they'll never know the difference"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- "When I'm single, I'm very single and when I'm not single, I'm very not. I do what I want to do. If I'm single and go out and meet three girls who want to have a good time, I have a good time. I would never say: `Oh I can't do that, it's immoral. If I think I'll have fun, I'll try it."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Journalist : Eddie , we saw some smoke coming out of your car at the end of the race. Did you have a problem ?
Eddie : No, that was just my brain.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Reporter: "You're a chauvinist,"

Irvine: "No, no. I love the company of women. But I believe a woman has a place. I believe a woman has to be feminine. The feminist thing is a woman has to be smart and hard working. I don't buy that. I think a woman has to be a woman first and then if she can still be other things, fantastic. But if she tries to be a man, she loses everything. I think she needs to know her sexuality. She can never hide that and that has to be the number one thing and everything else has to be worked around that."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Reporter: "But you've a daughter. How would you feel if she grew up and was treated the way you've treated women? Would you be mad at a guy for doing just like you've done?"

Irvine: "No, because the women that come with me have a great time. On the way out maybe they get a little pissed because they don't get all they want. But when they look at it after, they realise I was honest, made no promises or commitments, and they know they had a good time."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- On Thursday evening (they have a race on Saturday) Irvine was having a drink with some friends in the hotel bar. Michael Schumacher came in and Eddie invited him to join them. "Michael, come and have a drink with us!" MS:"No thanks, I don't drink alcohol, I simply can't." Eddie replied: "Why? Are you pregnant?"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- After the Argentinian Grand Prix of 1996, Eddie was being interviewed by the Eurosport interviewer, and he was being asked about the reliability of the Engines. As he was half way through some explanation of torque and differentials, something catches his eye to his left, and he calls out for someone to come over. I thought it was perhaps a mechanic, who could perhaps explain better the intricacies of the Ferrari engine. The Eurosport cameraman, tries to Pan to the right (Eddie's left), but Eddie holds the camera with his hand. The cameraman still manages to focus on what caught Eddies attention. It was two beautiful Argentinian girls. Eddie walks over, and asks if they were gonna go to the Hard Rock Cafe that evening, they said "maybe", and Eddie says, "See you there then". Calmly he walks back to the camera, and asks "Where were we?"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- In one of the issues of the Russian automotive newspaper "Autoreview" I have read about the following: During the presentation of the Ferrari drivers (I assume this was in the beginning of his first season with the Scuderia-Marlboro team) Eddie was invited to come up to the scene where Michael Schumacher was standing already. So, Eddie did come up, he approached Michael shook his hand with one hand and grabbed Michael by the balls with another. I would like to stress that this was during the official Scuderia presentation where the journalists and the photographers were present. Therefore this picture was published in the newspapers and magazines all over the world.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Reporter: "You're coming across arrogant,"

Irvine: "I don't think I'm arrogant. It comes down to do you want me to lie so you don't think I'm arrogant? People ask what I did yesterday. Now do I lie or do I say I was in Cairo and then went to London to shop? Now that's interesting. And I know I'm super lucky. I was a racing driver, I am Eddie Irvine and there is a lot of brand recognition with that name. Next week I can go see Brian Adams play in a really small venue in New York because I'm Eddie Irvine. If I was you, I wouldn't have gotten invited."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- "If you're out with a beautiful woman who's dumb, you have to go out with your mates so you can have a laugh and leave her for the end of the night."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- "You have to speak to a beautiful woman but if she's average looking you can nail her without bothering.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Pre race interview with Louise Goodman (ITV Pit lane reporter):"Tell us about your new private jet Eddie" Ed:"Well y'know, it takes off, it lands, it's just like any other plane, really"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- At Budapest, some serious looking Italian guy (Ferrari official) walks up to Eddie and in broken English trys to convince Eddie to go a bit slower at the start of the race. "Eddie, go slowly!!" Eddie was amused, and tried to reassure this guy that everything would be ok. As he's talking, three local girls walk by and smile at Eddie, Eddie leaves the Italian guy standing and goes over to talk to the girls!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Eddie appears on the Pat Kenny Show on RTE. Goes a  little like this,

Pat asks him to explain his comments about living near Damon Hill (About a year before he had a conversation like this with an Irish journo):
J:   Eddie, you live near Damon Hill. Do you drop around to Damo's for tea often ?
E:   Well, to be honest, you'd have to be a pretty sad naughty person to need a racing driver for a mate.  I have normal friends and have the crack with them.
So he says
E: "Well, to be honest, most of the guys in Formula 1 just dont get it."
P: "What do you mean?"
E: "Well for example, MS' idea of a good time is walking his dogs on a Sunday. I mean they might be very clever in a racing car, but out of it street, they just dont have a clue"
Pat: "So what do you like doing ?"
E: "I like getting pissed and going to Lillie's Bordello"
Later on, they had a Marlboro competition, to which there were 3 hints.  So Pat says (very seriously and distinctly)
Pat: "Its one of Eddie's favourite hunting grounds" [referring to his finishes at Spa [I think]
Eddie immediately quips
E: "What, Lillie's Bordello ??"
Brought the house down.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Q:  How did you celebrate winning the Australian Grand Prix:
Eddie:  We went out with a few of the Jordan and Ferrari guys.  I had an early night, going to bed at about 2 am, as I was feeling a bit sick". Then, as if he suddenly had a flashback he chuckled and added,  "Oh yes, I stole the girlfriend of one of my Ferrari mechanics.  The following day my race engineer tried to console the man saying "If you want to eat steak, you don't take it into the lion's cage."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Q:  How do you feel about the national anthem being played after you win.
Eddie:  "I couldn't give a s**t which song is played or which flag is flown.  I race for myself and for no-one else".

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Q:  What 20th century personality do you admire most?
Eddie:  "Nelson Mandela.  I'd love to meet him and find out where he gets so much tolerance after what he's been through.  We could do with some of that where I come from (Northern Ireland)".

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Reporter: Eddie, what do you think of Jacques Villeneuve?
Eddie: I think he is full of poo. I mean, they give a the guy big boots to fill and all he can fill them with is poo. Everyone knows that Jacques is full of it., said Eddie laughing.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- An old bloke asks Eddie for an autograph, Eddie replies, "Sorry I've got a sore hand".  Thirty seconds later he signs about thirty autographs for a bunch of models. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- On ITV, Martin Brundle was trying to do a serious interview with Eddie (always a bad idea). They both were sitting down around a little circular table. Just as Brundle was asking his first question about something technical like the performance of the Good Year tyres, the camera picked out Eddie's leg extending under the table, and giving Brundle a gentle kick in the groin area. Cue Eddie laughing and Brundle muttering something like: ''Can't you behave like a grown adult for just 5 minutes?''

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- A journalist went around in the paddock offering a packet of Viagra to the drivers he met. Obviously it was just a joke to see their reactions. While Schumacher stated he didn't know what it was and while some other drivers said laughing "I don't need it yet!", Eddie gave a look at the packet, smiled, said "Grazie!" -thanks-, took it and carried it away!!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- When asked about his collision with Heinz Harald Frentzen at Loews he replied:
"Well you can kitty foot around the guy all day, he was way too slow, I had to do something about it."
Without a hint of conscience or regret.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- There was on the most important TV channel in Italy a special programme about Ferrari. All the members of the Ferrrari team were invited. Obviously there was also our hero , Eddie Irvine . The host asked all the guests , including Eddie and Schumacher , about their "normal" speed on the roads. Eddie said in a nearly good italian that his habitual speed (in Ireland , he specified,  ) on the roads is 200 km/h. Then the host asked him about the Irish police, Ed' s answer : " Io no problema , conosco tutta la polizia! " ( I haven' t got any problem , I know all the police officers! ).

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Q. What did you say to Fisi after the crash (one which Irvine caused) at Barcelona.
Eddie. "Out of my way, little boy".

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Q. Do you think there's any connection between the improvements in Ferrari and the fact that you've been allowed to test.
Eddie. "Well said".

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Being interviewed after winning the Australian grand prix:

On passing Hakkinen "I did him and that was great, thank you very much"

On why he's so popular in Australia "Because it's full of Irish convicts"

On how he was going to celebrate "Melbourne is full of Irish bars and I'm going to visit every one"

Eddie was asked what would he have done if he wasn't an F1 driver?

Eddie:  Hmmmmm, I would have replaced Mick Jagger as lead singer of the Rolling Stones

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- A week after Irvine's victory in Melbourne, the Melbourne Sun Herald (Saturday, 14/3/1999) has a section devoted to "highlights and quotes of the week". At the very top of the page, above all the usual ramblings from politicians, businessmen, sportsmen and editorials alike, sits Eddie's answer to a reporter's question on how it felt to win his first GP victory,
"It's like having sex with the 10 most beautiful women in the world"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- When Eddie first joined Ferrari in 1996, a reporter asked him, what he would do if he won the Drivers World Championship,
"If I won the world championship, I would immediately announce my retirement, buy a nice luxury boat and sail the seas for 10 years. And at every stop-over, I would take on board two girls, and exchange them for two more, at each port!"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- When asked "So Eddie, I guess there will be a few Guinness' sunk tonight then?"
Eddie replied "No way, I'll be drinking Red Bull and Vodka thanks."
To which the reporter asked "Why so?"
Eddie bluntly stated, "Well, it's red like my Ferrari. But more importantly, It gets you pissed a lot quicker."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- During the Italian Grand Prix Eddie was asked if he usually has sex during the week-end of the race.E.I." Yes, sometimes! It depends."
The italian journalist added : "Whether you find a girl or not"
E.I."Oh, qui a Monza, no problema!" (Here at Monza, No problem!)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- On the reason behind his Australian popularity: "Because it's full of Irish convicts"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- When a journalist asked him about the car and the race he said " It's ok, last year here in Hungary the car jumped a lot, in fact after the race the fillings of my teeth were gone. this year I haven't this problem so, either the car is good or I found a good dentist!"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- On his "playboy" image: "It's got me this far the way I do it. If you change it and get serious you are going to get depressed and you won't be as happy with your life. I have such a ball away from races that when I get to races I am actually looking forward to getting on with it. I'll be in the boat having a blast, but then on Thursday that'll stop. I'll get to the circuit relaxed and refreshed and that has got to put you in a better frame of mind."   

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- He was being interviewed by a journalist for an Italian TV station in 1998 season. He was criticised about not being aggressive enough (!) and he said "oi! I've got a helicopter, a jetski, 3 Ferraris, a yacht, a private jet, a few motorbikes and a canoe, so feck off"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- On fear, Eddie said: "But fear is an irrational business. The things that really scare the s**t out of me are earwigs, which used to infest our home in Ireland. I'd rather do 180mph around Monza than even see an earwig, let alone have one crawling around on me. I don't like snakes, either, but they are about the only two things that scare me, except for weddings, of course, and commitment, but that's another story."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- When asked if his behaviour is not demeaning to women, he said: "I never hide anything from women when I get involved with them. They know what kind of guy I am and what I am after but somewhere in their heads they convince themselves they can change me".

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- A journalist asked Mika Hakkinen and Michael Schumacher what they expect from their teammates. So Mika Hakkinen is giving an answer of 5 minutes, explaining and stuff. Michael Schumacher kept his brief and said: "I want Eddie to stay away from my daughter when she is on an age to start dating!"






This guy cracks me up heavy. His nickname should be: Man!  grin grin grin grin grin

Moral of the story: This guy has nothing to apologise for and nobody to apologise to. He moves with whoever he wants to move with and says whatever he wants to say. He owes no one politeness when he speaks (especially to journalists that ask moronic questions) and you can not get half of his wealth in any way. Not some pathetic Tiger coming on TV to apologise to the world about HIS OWN PRIVATE LIFE. I have $900m and I will go on global TV to humiliate myself like that? Hell, ffing NO. I will tell all the fans and sponsors to F off!

Young boys reading this, pick the right role models.

“I have the potential pretty much to do whatever I like. If I want to fly to New York tonight, I can. If I want to go to Tokyo for the weekend, I can. You don’t want to all the time, but it would be a shame to waste the potential because one day, when I’m old and have lost all my money, I will wish I had.” - Eddie Irvine.
