They hold the biggest race of the season, the most prestigious race, the "Superbowl" of racing, to open the season. And it has no major effect on who wins the seasons championship. Well that makes friggin sense. Why not open the season with Wimbledon or the Master's and then not count the results on the season ending money list / rankings. Perhaps because it is moronic. Throw out the fact that NASCAR is only good for the massive wrecks, which can be easily viewed fully on a highlight show, NASCAR's season is set up miserably. So after yesterday its pretty much either congrats you won the biggest race of the year, now the rest are insignificant. Or you just wrecked in the biggest race of the year, you're a loser, have fun for the rest of the stupid races this season.
~PTI getting bounced for NASCAR now is extremely annoying. PTI = ESPN's best show. NASCAR = Mind Numbingly Boring. By simple deduction of logic PTI should never be pulled for anything, especially driving in circle news. Why did ESPN have to go out and taint themselves by picking up something that isn't a sport? Now it's only natural that they attempt to pound NASCAR into our brains. Everything on ESPN or ABC is of course given more coverage than an event of similar note on a different network. Pain.
~Think that guy is up for a flaming JD shot?

2. I totally agree with you. Getting home and watching PTI was awesome. I'm pretty pissed they replaced it with Nascar news or whatever it is.
3. I think the wrecks are the worst part. My friend from WPI, Keri, drives race cars and once you watch your friend zip around the track the last thing you want to see is a crash.
4. Lots of hatoraide recently.
