Tom: "whomever the driver may be?" Get serious! How do you think cLyDe would 
react is Luca could somehow strap Ted Wil... (er, Ty Cobb) into a F1 Ferrari 
seat?for 2008? I pray that Luca isn't like Jerry Jones of the Dallas?Plowboys, 
who just signed Tank Johnson to a contract. I firmly believe that if Der Fuhrer 
were still alive and could throw a 60 yard tight spiral with pin-point 
accuracy, he would be Jerry's starting QB. And don't forget about the 
post-prison, 'reformed, seen the light' Michael Vick. Can you imagine a more 
beautiful sight in the world than a Vick, in a Plowboy uniform,?to T.O. 
touchdown pass and T.O. 'doing his thing' in the endzone? I wet my pants every 
time that I just think about it!

Clyde's right, of course.
We're Ferrari fans, whomever the drivers happen to be.  We might like some
more or less, but the team is the thing.
