I guess it's pretty obvious now, with Fox, FX, TNT, ABC, and ESPN
in the mix, exactly much that idea really played in NASCAR's
mind. Not that anyone really beleived their main motivation
wasn't the money.

Okay, on to the important stuff. Are Weber and Rusty going to do any
commentating in the new package? I want to start making copies of my
protest letters. LOL.

You could do a better job, Alan? Oh, right. You would have to leave your

trailer. So, I guess it will never happen.

I hate it when people post responses like this.

Why do you have to be better at something before you can criticize others?
Have you never thought that someone did a poor job at something that you
couldn't do yourself?

It's just that Alan isn't even good at what he does, yet criticizes those

who actually leave their homes and make a living doing what he fantasizes
about.

Point taken, but even journalistic hacks like Janal have the right to
criticize others, just as we criticize Janal.

Personally I think they should stay on 1 network 4 the season, and me
personally, I love the way Fox does it.

I agree completely Scott. I wouldn't even mind if FOX and FX shared the races
they are both the best.

I went to the FOX web site and left them feedback telling them I wanted all
series races on eithr of those two stations and if everyone who felt that way
sent them feedback maybe someday they would. The only way a network knows how
people feel is if they get feedback.

I agree that it would be nice if all races were on the same network but not on
Fox if they're going to keep that babbling idiot Joy as the announcer. It's
too bad they drag down their coverage by putting that moron in the booth with
two guys who actually know something about racing.
