TANSTAAFL!

It's the modern model of litigation. Appeal everything as many times and as far up the court system as you can. Stall long enough, and eventually you can claim there isn't time to try the case before you're inaugurated. I wonder what the half-life is of this element?

If it was intended as humorous, too long and didn't read. If was intended as serious, you lost me immediately with expanding the playoff field and I read no further.

Exactly. Most stick-and-ball sports use playoffs because they have no choice. Only two teams are involved in each competition, and there aren't enough competitions in the season for each team to play all of the others enough times to be statistically significant. Outside of drag racing, most...

So you dropped any servies you had that upped their rates this year? Which ones were those? Thanks!

Bad enough a crapshoot plate race is even in the playoffs, let alone a finale. NASCAR schedules Martinsville for first weekend in November. It seems to me the difference in weather between that and the second weekend are statistically insignificant.

Now if I can just figure out how to keep the local CW affiliate from blasting their portion of the ad times at volumes twice those of the network ads, Darling Bride might relent and let me watch X races in the house again.

You mean my homegrown B.S. about 'buying every circuit on the ... schedule' may be partially correct?

I don't know where you're located but you might look at the ones with as many other events as possible. The weekends at IMS r/c and Laguna Seca each have two NXT races. Checking each track's web page should show each weekend's complete schedule of events. Beyond that, I've read that the fan...

Hi! Topics can be pinned to the top of a forum. This topic for the I500 was pinned at the top on race day, and it just hasn't been unpinned since! @TexasRaceLady , can you still unpin topics? Thanks!

What does mean in relationship to Jeopardy? I'm only aware of one format. Not sure why the 'Gangster' modifier in being used.

You're more than welcome. It was a privilege.

Well, a fly in the ointment for a potential #11 sponsor is the association with @Revman.

So it can't shown they wouldn't have been removed under the old format. If that can't be shown, it follows that the current format can't be shown to be responsible for smaller crowds. What has been shown is that attendance is down across the board for live sports.

Demonstrate that they wouldn't be removing seats under the previous championship methods, please. Thanks.

Yeah, we saw it the first time when someone else posted it yesterday. It was irrelevant then and it still is now.

Fantasy racing forces players to look beyond their preferences and preconceptions, and to evaluate each driver on individual characteristics. At least it does if the player wants to be successful. I had a league in the '00s with a lady who steadfastly refused to ever pick Jimmie Johnson... It...

I doubt Logano would have picked up a first title if he'd stayed at JGR. Square peg, round hole.

That's the part I don’t get. How can aiming for a smaller target, often with vehicles on either side, be easier than aiming for the wide lane?

Is it to late to dispute the initial premise?
