Thanks, I'd forgotten that.

No race, no trial; we're left rehashing last week's 'action'. Off-season sucks.

Or maybe those races wouldn't be relevant, since NASCAR was under orders to treat the teams as chartered. NASCAR didn't do it on it's own initiative. Why get credit for something you had to be forced to do?

That much we can agree on. Dope slaps for both sides.

No, but I don't see how this approach is productive, and appears to be easy to counter-argue. I'm just trying to make sense of the approach.

I read them before I posted. Jordan could give the Frances solid gold medals to show his appreciation for what they've done, but that doesn't affect whether what they've done is legal or not. Napoleon is said to have given a lieutenant a medal for winning a battle, then having him shot for...

Again, what does what they've done for NASCAR have to do with whether what they did was legal?

Where's O'Donnell getting this 'SRX is coming back' stuff?

Again, irrelevant. Why NASCAR did it doesn't matter.

The subject of 'Growing the sport' is itself moving the goalposts. The question isn't why NASCAR took actions, it's whether they were illegal. That's probably why it isn't an acceptable defense. I can fill in a wetland to build a factory and provide hundreds of jobs but it's still a violation...
