I do understand what you mean.
I'm probably just zionked that the sport of racing has gotten lost in the job of advertising racing.
they take guys like Jr. and Gordon and whore them for every drop of sales they can, even to the point of soap operaizing (I just created a new word!) thier lives in home life coverage, give me a break!
to diversify the sport they've recruited names instead of talent.
anything for the almighty dollar.
not to mention the pc
those of us that hear not to mention use the occasional expletive are having a rough(er) time watching the sport "pretty up" so that any 5 year old child can watch.
swearing and good behavior not to be diminished, didn't they make cartoons for that audience?
maybe I'm out of line, but thats what I think.
sorry
I agree. I knew the sport was in it's demise when I saw a big guy walking around Daytona wearing a Tide jacket. I mean, c'mon, a guy wearing a laundry soap jacket? We've definitely been soap operaized. However, that was in the days when CBS would have Chris Economaki on the 4-hour delay, with only 2 camera coverage. I don't like that NASCAR has become Wall Street/Madison Aenue sanitary, but at least we get to see a whole lot more racing with a lot better coverage, at least with FOX. NBC sucks, but that's another gripe for another time. I sure would like to see Smoke beat the crap out of Busch. that would make for some good post race TV.
