    2016 NASCAR Season - Television Ratings Thread

    That's one trend I haven't seen around here, kids not wanting licenses. It's pretty rural here, just small towns. No public transportation to speak of. If a kid wants a job, he better have transportation. And the jobs are few and far between, so you have to take what you can get.

    this still makes me emotional

    We didn't have cable, so I didn't see much ESPN back then, but I've seen so many clips since then that even I can say they are probably the best team ever. I also liked TNT, particularly compared to the other broadcasters at that time. But I remember back in the day, it was Sunday morning...

    when did alcohol stop becoming a major sponsprship in nascar?

    You would think the beer companies would be all over it. Seems like NASCAR's fans would be a perfit fit.

    very annoyed with fox

    They have plenty of commercial time to handle that!

    Bass Pro Shops Cars

    I just thought it was interesting because sponsors and teams are so funny about that sort of stuff these days. Definitely not a big deal. I am sure I have seen Bass Pro Shops on two cars before, but probably didn't pay much attention. This time they were both racing side by side.

    Bass Pro Shops Cars

    Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't it a bit unusual to have one company sponsoring two cars from competing teams and competing car makers? That was Bass Pro Shops on both the 78 and 14, right?

    Of my picks, Landon Cassil was the only one that didn't wreck.

    Rate The Race: Talladega 1

    I say 9 for the race itself. It's one of the few races in recent years that I watched every second of and didn't skip anything.

    very annoyed with fox

    If Chris Meyers wasn't on the broadcast at all, and nobody filled in for him, not a single thing would be lost. I never have understood why you can't just have the 3 announcers and the pit reporters and let that be it.

    clint bowyer will not finish out the hear at hscott (my prediction)

    Clint could have used this year to be a Mark Martin type and help a struggling team to improve their equipment instead of expecting something that he knew he wasn't getting: a really good race car. He has the one thing that many drivers don't, and that is job security.

    Bonehead of the week: Richmond

    I'd have to give it to the 41 crew. Also, to whoever designed Chase Elliott's paint scheme. Was it just me or was the 4-lug issue not actually a big deal in the race this time?

    If I could turn back time

    We can't really complain about something that's free. Glad its back!

    Jeff Gordon not retiring

    I'd like to see him just show up and race unannounced at a random race next year, like Martinsville. They could just have one car made specially for that race, and just come in and race from back to front and dominate it all, and then leave again...only to show up next year at a random race....

    falling out of love with nascar

    The season long sponsor issue is one that I have a hard time with, too. I understand its expensive, but when they divide up a season into 4 sponsors (and they are all jumbled up, no guarantee that its the same sponsor 3 weeks straight), I forget or lose interest in the sponsor completely. You've...

    I had Johnson too. That's the last time I pick the previous race's winner. What was I thinking picking the Kobalt Tools car at the Kobalt Tools 400 anyway. At least I had Truex.

    Would Kurt Busch be Chase-eligible if he returns?

    That doesn't make sense to me. If I understand correctly, Regan Smith isn't eligible for the Chase either, since he's running for it in Xfinity.

    Rate the Race - Las Vegas

    I never have high expectations at Las Vegas, but even so, I was hoping the new package was going to make a difference. I say a 6. There were a few good minutes of passing (in the lead, where I'd actually see it on TV), then it would get strung out. Of course, Harvick had an extremely good car...

    Fired Up Friday Question(s)

    Question #1: What driver is on the hot seat heading into 2015? I'll agree with the others that said Stehnhouse. I'm not sure who all is at the end of their contracts. Question #2: If you could attend one race in Jeff Gordon’s final season, which race would it be? Martinsville. I'd attend it...

    Legal NASCAR streams?

    Dish carries NBCSN and FOX Sports 1, but its not in their lower tier (Top 120) package, you have to pony up $10 more per month for that next higher package (Top 200). Which is better than it used to be, it used to be 2 packages higher to find the Speed Network. Still, to me, I'm now going to...
