    Point Standings if there was no "Chase"

    Most wins ever by any team in a season. We remember. Believe they are tied with the Cubs for that dubious distinction.

    Are You Currently a Fan of Nascar Racing?

    Been a fan since Derrick Cope won the Daytona 500 in '89 or '90. I refer to it as my religion. I went years not giving a single thought to the championship. I've been a fan of nearly all the drivers, - at the same time. That's a large part of the appeal for me. For example, in baseball, my other...

    Mark Martin won the 2007 Daytona 500

    Always the bridesmaid, never the bride. Mark Martin should have won. I'm not letting it go either. Never. I'm still spittin' mad.

    Heat races in Xfinity series -What did you think?

    I was really excited but....Just like the track itself, the hype doesn't match the reality. Single groove, no passing, no strategy other than not to ding up the car. It was boring. That being said I'd love to see it at another track, with some consequences or rewards as you all have noted...

    Texas RACE thread

    OK, I watched the race, read most of the comments here and elsewhere, and what I think is that this chase format makes the championship more exciting and less credible. While I love the idea of the elimination style format and having it come down to the baseball equivalent of four wildcard teams...

    Op-Ed: NASCAR races should never finish under caution

    Don't get me wrong, I love it when a race takes the whole day. But there are some tracks where there's a lot of follow the leader until a certain point in the race, so why not cut to the chase (the metaphorical, not the actual). Really my thinking was that shortening the races would compensate...

    Op-Ed: NASCAR races should never finish under caution

    Why not shorten the races and and not count caution laps? Maybe by as much as half. If a caution comes out on the last lap, reset the number of laps for the finish according to the size of the track. Something like 10 laps for a place like Bristol and Martinsville, and 5 for the bigger tracks...

    NFL 2013

    "Pelting" might be too strong a description. It looks like about 20 pieces of popcorn were tossed, a total of one piece maybe grazed Bowman, 4 stayed on the cart, and it was probably only done by one fan. Not cool at all, but certainly not "pelting". Not something you can use to classify all...
