Yeah, I agree w/vox. Time.

Why watch a race live when 30+% is commercials? NASCAR is still this households #1 sport to view but if I had to watch it live I’d quit watching. The four major networks are suing Dish Network because of Dish’s “Hopper” product. “Hopper” allows you to watch prime-time programs w/o commercials on multiple TV’s in your household.

Business Insider has a lengthy article this morning showing why regular TV viewing is declining rapidily due to iTunes, Hulu, Netflex, etc., and viewing/revenue is going the way of newsprint. We watched the season finale of “Castle” last night on iTunes - $2.99 - excellent quality and no commercials.

We’ll watch the race this evening. If it looks like rain I’ll just add a couple of hours to the DVR.

About 18 members of my American Legion took the bus to the race today.
All the beer you can drink both ways, good seat tickets, ham or roast beef sandwich both ways.
Total cost $70 each.

All of them good guys/gals. Nobody gets slobbered.
They just want to see good racing and have fun.
