I’d heard in the early days of COT discussion. He mentioned the heavy right side weight. I can’t believe they did this. No wonder the damn thing drives like a snow plow.
I can’t believe how many writers have pounded on the diametrically opposed personalities of Chad Knaus and Steve Letarte. So freaking what? They’re two different people with two different but similar drivers. Who cares? Once for this comparison was enough but this monkey see, monkey do nonsense is irritating.
Even though Joe Nemecheck has brought the performance level of the Front Row Furniture team up a notch I can’t believe they operate out of Colorado. I could see it if the had big secrets to hide from other teams but I think they need to be in the Charlotte area to learn the trade. King Richard finally saw the light. While his shop once lead the competition it’s obvious they aren’t in very close pursuit now.
I can’t believe I saw a whole Busch race on E$PN without Rusty and the dreaded Draft Tracker. That horrible thing needs to be renamed the Daft Tracker and Rusty makes Daffy Duck look like a genius. Well, they just couldn’t lay off the damn thing for two races and had to revive it for the CUP race.
I can’t believe SPEED’s trackside insists on having the stage bassackwards. They talk about a lot of good things, have interesting guests but the screaming meemies and waving placards and cutout figures behind them is very distracting. I like John Roberts but the crowd of idiots forces him to yell over them and that demeans him in my eyes. He’s become SPEED’s version of Billy Mays. I’d give all I own for Jimmie Spencer to turn around and tell them to shut up and listen. Sadly, ain’t gonna happen.
I can’t believe how one of the nicest guys in racing is hated/disliked/ignored by so many. Robby Gordon is fan friendly, intelligent and highly competitive. He’s today’s version of Alan Kulwicki as a single car team owner/driver. We should be applauding him instead of demeaning him. Does he make mistakes? Name a driver who doesn’t. I’m waiting.
I can’t believe that King Brian thinks all is well in NA$CAR. This guy is unreal. Instead of coming out and saying they may have made mistakes he thinks all he’s done came down from the mountain engraved in stone. Let’s call him King Daffy and he hasn’t enough sense to Duck.
I can’t believe E$PN finally quit opening with that horrible Aerosmith thingy but still had to drop it on us on the way to commercial. At least it didn’t blast my ear drums to numbness. I can’t believe how often RustHead says, “That’s for sure” in one minute let alone a whole broadcast.
I can’t believe how often the track promoters have so called performers butcher the Anthem. Frankly, I hate it as a song but, so long as it’s our Anthem then treat it with respect. I can’t believe who is controlling the flyovers and having them drown out the final part of the Anthem but, on the other hand, with some performances this is a good thing. Note to that trumpeter at Phoenix, the Anthem is not a jazz composition. Can you imagine one of the military bands jazzing up Hail To The Chief?
I can’t believe how good Jimmy Johnson and team are and how hard he’s driving with so much on the line. Love or hate him, you have to give him and his team all due credit. One thing I can believe, Jimmy isn’t backing into his second championship. Another thing I can believe, the COT sure made a lot of passes today for the lead and positions elsewhere. I can’t believe that
in today’s CUP racing that Jimmy just won
four in a row. Kudos to him and his team
but another thing I can’t believe is that a
driver of his caliber still finds it necessary
to act like a teenager and do burnouts
after a win. What happened to a victory
lap with the checkered flag? If he wraps
up the championship at Homestead I hope
he’ll honor us all by doing a Polish victory
lap with the checkers. As Tom Landry
used to instruct his Cowboys,
“Act like you belong there.”
One other thing I can believe, that’s
enough of my ramblings for this set.
Never forget, you have the right to disagree but never to be disagreeable. I value your comments on my rants and raves.
