Drivers and Danica start your engines. Is James Franco a retard or a sexist?
 
I don't know if that was meant to come out like that, but it was prety damn low blow.
 
JUST DRAWING ATTENTION TO THE OBVIOUS.

Shawna Robinson, Johanna Long, Janet Guthrie, Katherine Legg, the Force Sisters and Patty Moise were/are racecar drivers who have gained some noteriety and some success in motor racing. Danica has progressed to this point in her career based upon her ability - as well as the fact that she's kinda cute.

Danica IS a driver - and a pretty good one at that! Can she withstand the rigors of a 36-race CUP schedule? Time will tell. But she certainly deserves the opportunity to succeed - or to fail.

I think your question is sensationalism.

LET IT GO!
 
I didnt know who the scumbag was, had to google him and still dont know and dont give a sheet.
 
yumm the force sisters blow Danica out of the water. Damn they're hot.
 
I'm leaning towards dumb/clueless. I'm wondering if he meant to say "gentlemen and..." rather than what came out.
 
The past couple of weeks have definitely been good ones for some of the women in motorsports. Danica Patrick grabs the Pole for the Daytona 500 and then gets a top ten finish, Courtney Force qualifies number 1 and wins Nitro Funny Car at the Winternationals in Pomona Ca, and Erica Enders wins Pro Stock at the Arizona Nationals in Phoenix. The girls are kicking our azzes.;)
 
She is a driver. I think she won 1 race , not sure where but she did win 1 for sure ....... right?
 
It is good press, attention and harmless. Probably just a clumsy moment, he probably wanted to note the significance, but executed poorly.
 
Franco is an excellent actor and very highly regarded. Anyone who has seen 127 hours knows the nuanced type of performance of which he's capable. And Pineapple Express was funny as balls. But then again, I wouldn't expect the typical NASCAR fan to know this. Maybe if he were in a Larry the Cable Guy or some terrible Adam Sandler movie they'd like him more. But obviously the studio that produced Oz sent him there to do promotion.

I'm just shocked that NASCAR fans would overreact to something so trivial!
 
Your shocked people are upset about something stupid?

Literally nothing shocks me when it comes to NASCAR fans. The idiotic conspiracy theories, the blatant disregard for logic and reason, the jorts...it's all part of the ride. hahaha

When an excellent actor ad-libs it usually comes out right.

Dood messed the bed big time. It's no big deal but laughing at him is not some horrible over-reaction.

If you replace 'a retard' with 'an idiot', I won't have to choose between the two.

Radio personalities John Boy and Billy famously started a race with the command, "Gentlemen and Jimmy Spencer...", but they knew Spence and he'd been on their show before.

Starting commands and national anthems should be handled by people who know something about the sport and aren't there just to hype their album or movie.
 
Maybe 48wabac would have been happier if Ray Lews had given the command...

That is awesome.

Hopefully at one of the hundreds of awards shows Hollywood throws for itself, someone will mention "actors and James Franco".
 
Seriously? Somebody thinks she can drive an F1 car? And since when did Bernie E want to push for a chick in a car>?

Danica Patrick has played down suggestions she might switch to Formula One.

Speculation the 30-year-old American could have a future on the Grand Prix grid was kindled by her high-profile pole position for NASCAR's prestigious Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway in Florida.

Red Bull's Helmut Marko was quoted by Bild newspaper as saying while Patrick is not "on the top 10" of his list of promising F1-worthy candidates for the future, he would offer her a test.

According to Austria's Kleine Zeitung newspaper, Patrick described Marko's offer as "nice" but insisted: "I do not need to be in Formula One to have a full life."

She said she has "never been really interested" in exploring any F1 options.

"It is speculation in the media," she added, "but it has never been seriously discussed."

That is despite Williams test driver Susie Wolff admitting recently that Bernie Ecclestone is "massively pushing" for a female driver to be on the F1 grid.

"At some point I think in the future we will definitely see it happen," she said last week.
 
Perhaps Nascar shoud write an exact phrase. They could also set up a telepromters for victory speeches. That way everybody would be wonderful all the time.
They could also own drivers iphones and simply revoke the ones for drivers thar are selfish enough to say what they think. Shock collars could work too.

Least that ways we could avoid the horrors and trauma of a bad starting command.
