A short track somewhere
So far, Danica got 100% of the coverage every moment she was on track. And Jennifer Jo Cobb has gotten a good amount of coverage.

Goes back to my point with the women in racing... the two drivers in the field who got their ride because of their looks get coverage, and the one who got their ride the hard way gets no coverage.

Danica has set things back for women.

I have issues with Danica and JJC's acts. Johanna got where she is because of talent and hard work alone (and didn't have to pose almost nude in swimsuit magazines to get there) and gets no respect.

Andy I like you but do you have to complain about the same thing EVERY week?

Yes. I find it repulsive that the sport tries so hard to get women to race and then ONLY pays attention to women who got where they are because they take their clothes off for MAXIM.

SPEED and ESPN are going to be the death of the Nationwide Series. People pay a ton of money to try to run these races because they're on the national stage... but you won't get coverage unless your a Sprint Cup driver or Danica Patrick even if you're running in the top 10. The Truck Series hasn't been worth watching for years (with the exception of Martinsville) and the Nationwide Series is going the same direction.

I think Andy was very dissapointed in Danica for only being 'almost' nude.

You're correct, Andy, in that she is overexposed(wait for FB's comment;) ) but do you realize that by bringing it up over and over that you're adding to the hype?

I think he is right. If anything look at Cobb. The woman has no talent what so ever, yet she gets rides, and even gets a lot of camera time. Danica (while I don't hate her) get way to much camera time. She is a decent NWS driver at best right now, but she gets covered like she is in the run for the championship.
 
It's only week 3 lol. Wait till you have heard about here for a full season lol. I think Danica is a pretty good driver but I think like the Indycar Series towards the end the fans may begin to turn on here because the amount of coverage she recieves compared to her results.
 
Johanna FINALLY gets credit, thanks to Steve Byrnes and Bob Dillner knowing **** about racing! :)

And Stewart Fan, IndyCar saw the same ratings bump. Once the novelty wore off, their ratings went back to the original dismal state. The difference when ratings start sliding is, Danica will still get all the coverage.

Same thing happened in IndyCAr, even though she had good results, fans turned on her because of the media coverage. It's not Danica's fault, and I want her to do well. It's the sensationalist media.
 
I think Danica is just being used by NA$CAR, they don't care if she wins or not, actually more not than win. Last week I heard her crew chief tell her they set her car up to run in the top 15 the same thing she was told about her cars all last year. Why won't her crew chief set her up a car that will win instead of one that will just run in the top 15?
 
You don't want her to do well. You take too much pleasure in the misfortune of others to want her to do well. Lol

pretty sad when you boost Steve Byrnes n Bob Dillner.
 
I am thinking that there are scientific studies that demonstrate beautiful women naturally get more attention.


This can be fun Andy, (1) just remind yourself that you are a male, it will grow on you.
(2) Rather than saying "I hate it" when she leaves little to the imagination.
Try "OMG thank you Lord, did you see her, wonderful, wonderful."

(3) Meditate on the sweet moment, dream about the memory of her strut, it can make life meaningful and define purpose.

(4) While it may seem impossible, it is possible to think this way constantly it can be done. Then you will not have to be sad, so sad about Danica, or them bad woman in the Maxim magazines.

That's fine and dandy, but (and I can't believe I'm about to agree with Spike), Danica Patrick is not all that in the looks department, she's an okay driver and she's the least fan friendly driver in any motorsports event I've attended or covered.

I just go off of your posts. I know your type well. Always complaining, overly dramatic, always the victim, overly sensitive, narcissistic, filled with jealousy and resentment, anger management issues, a propensity for burning bridges...etc.
