Funny thing is, a lot of people say that he makes
the show.
I think they are neglecting that there is an audience
that will not watch the show because of him....

Truthfully, no one, from Bestwick through Waltrip looked very comfortable
during the show after Charlotte.

Lots of silent moments and uncomfortable laughter from Schrader...Mikey did
make a few of his vague
smart a-- remarks re Jr. "I havent spoken to him yet", etc.

Well if that's the case that will be the end of that show.

Sorry guys, you may not like the fact that Mikey looks at his shoe in
the
middle of the show but that's what makes the show a down home type of
show. Funny how many complained about how NASCAR was losing the down
home
feel but the turn around and would rather have stuffed suits doing the
TV
show or race commentary.

Maybe... but around my home we don't take our shoes off with company and
stare at them while other people are talking. I'm not pushing for stuffed
suits, but I am looking for something above "dumb-ass". I'd rather see
him
replaced with Jimmy Spencer. Mikey, besides being NASCAR's #1 ass kisser
(I
don't know who has his balls in a jar, Buffy or Brian France) is not much
more than a camera hog on the show, I guess he gets that from DW...
they're
both hyperactive idiots suffering from "look at me" syndrome.

OMG Spencer? That man and his family can't kept themself out of jail and
you think he'd be better then Mikey. I think you miss the humor in what
Mikey does when he's on camera. Lighten up a bit before you sterilize and
PC NASCAR like everything else has been made sterile and PC in the world.

INCR is one of the funniest shows on TV and all you up tight A holes should
just lighten up a bit and enjoy it.

What was I thinking, we can't corrupt NASCAR with someone who would have
done something illegal and ended up in jail... the founding fathers of
NASCAR would be rolling over in their graves. So that's what you consider
"humor"? Boy when he stared at his shoe I bet you were on the floor
laughing... you would have probably peed you're pants if he would have stood
up during the show and checked his zipper... now that's entertainment!!!
"When he's on camera"... is this when the camera pans to him or when he
opens his mouth so the cameraman will have no choice but to be on him? He's
a bigger "look at me" camera hog than his idiot big brother.

I bet you rank it up there with Two and a Half Men and Everybody Loves
Raymond. Maybe we should just try to be a loose A hole like you. Maybe
after he gets booted you can find another show to your liking... I think DIY
network has a knitting or quilting show on about that same time.

Dude, you really need to take the pole out of you ass and relax!!! You're
so uptight about a show you don't obviously like. Solution -- Don't watch
it if you don't like Mikey. If you want a sterile news presented by a bunch
of talk heads turn on ESPN News. Maybe NPR is more your speed that way you
don't even need to see the talking heads. Too bad they don't cover much
racing. Better yet just pick up the paper. Now you don't even need to hear
the talking heads.

In any event, keep up the crusade after all it's uptight a holes like you
who have stripped NASCAR of any personality it once had. Good going BTW
you're being very successful in ruining what used to be a very unique sport.

Thanks,

Rob

well, as much as MW "hogs" the air time, if he didn't the show could be 15
minutes and boring. Him and Shrader bounce things off each other. As far as
him kissing up to Nascar you weren't listening to his comments concerning
Lowes, which was the same thing Kenny and Spencer said, it was a mistake. He
even told Humpy going faster was not a good thing. So, you guys hear what
you want to. It's fair to say Nascar is doing something right... it
continues to grow. I gave up my seat at Daytona for next year becuase of the
new 2 day minimum.. I talked to a guy and they sold them out in 1 day. So,
do you think they regret their decision and they care that I was mad. No,
it's a business.

It cracks me up how much you guys complain each week about nascar, yet, you
are the first ones to turn your tv on and sit there and complain all day
sunday. Everything you guys complain about I heard back in the 70's and
80's. I for one don't want to go back to 30% of the cars not finishing and
only 5 cars on the lead lap.

I think they should replace them all... they could have Bobby Hamilton, Jr.,
Carl Edwards, and Jamie McMurray do the show. Then they'd just have a
younger version of the current show... the run in the back when he can
qualify guy, the run in the middle guy, and the dumb-ass, questionably gay
who only wins on flukes otherwise DNF's guy.

Well you could say that about anybody. I enjoy Mikey on the show so it
would depend on who replaces him as to whether or not I watch. I don't
think Jeff Gordon or Kurt Busch would be a good choice.

Maybe it has something to do with the stoner mentality of Mikey on the
show... last week he was holding up his shoe staring at it... with
everyone on the stage thinking, "what the fuck is he doing"? NASCAR
booted Hmeil, now they need to test Mikey. They might as well replace
Benson, I think he's averaging 2 or 3 words the entire hour.

LOLOLOLOL.................that was funny! Sorry I missed it, but it seems
like a typical 'Mikey thing to do'. I agree too about Benson, he is
sooooooooo boring!
The thing with Mikey is, he caught on that people thought he was 'funny' so
he went crazy with it and tried to capatalize on that. Thing is, is he over
did it, and, he's not all that funny. He's coming off like an idiot and I'm
begining to think that's not an act.
You have your Michael Waltrips, who think their funny and try to be funny
everytime they are interviewed, (and you may even be able to put Kevin
Harvick in that group) then you have your 'naturals' like Kenny Wallace, who
are just freaking nuts no matter how you crack em! And that's why I like
Kenny, because I can picture him 20-30 years ago, acting the same way!
Running around the local track, being a smart-mouthed wise-ass kid, with a
totally obnoxious, but very funny personality.
