That makes sense now. It wouldn't seem right if a driver could switch cars in the middle of the race once it started. Anyway, my 12-year-old son is into NASCAR in a big way so I'm starting to watch the races with him. I was hoping to get him interested in NFL football as some of my fondest childhood memories was watching NFL games with my uncles in the den. All my uncles smoked pipes so the smell of pipe smoke always brings back memories of watching the NFL games of the 1970s.

NASCAR and NFL football are my two favorite sports. My oldest boy is a big fan of both of them. When the NFL season starts I find myself wishing that I had two TVs so I could have them both on at the same time.

My son got me hooked on NASCAR when he was about 14. Every Sunday I'd see him sitting and watching these cars go round and round and I'd ask him why he was watching something so boring. Then he started explaining strategy, how they pick up points, the excitment of pit stops and soon I found myself sitting and watching with him.

He must have figured all this stuff out on his own otherwise I have no idea how he learned it.
