The NASCAR Renaissance

[Jorge De Guzman]

People didn't get cancelled until the 2020s.

Eh. not necessarily. Marv Albert for NBC lost his job as lead NBA play by play on the network for engaging in some risque behavior in mid to late 90's

People didn't get cancelled until the 2020s.

Bill Cosby, Garrison Keillor, Pee Wee Herman, for starters. All well before 2020.

See anyone blacklisted for just being suspected of being Communist, most with no actual proof.

I am having a hard time wrapping my mind around a NASCAR Renaissance. It is just the verbiage, the phrase NASCAR and Renaissance just don't go together imo.

I am more comfortable with "shiet fire","that thing ran like a scalded dog", "every point matters,", even "Boogity" " Boogity" "Boogity".

Anyways back on topic…this sport is the most fun it’s been in a while. I truly hope new folks discover it and become life long fans

To note: Surprisingly the old team of Kyle's rebadged to Chevys with three trucks has won all three races against the four truck heavily sponsored Ford team of Thorsport and the 5 truck Toyota team that was supposed to replace Kyle's team with heavy factory support.

Who engineered those rebadged Chevys? #AskingForAFriend

I hear you man, and I am not trying to be contrary, but this sport has always been fun. Always. If new fans need three wide photo finishes every week, they won't be staying long. If the understand how great Vegas was, we got 'em for life.

Attendance & viewership seem to have stabilized and a lucrative broadcast deal has been signed. At least according to Jeff Gluck’s pole most people that watch the races really like them. This is all good!

I think the biggest improvement Nascar could make is attracting younger viewers. You have to be careful though as whatever you are using to catch a new viewer must be repeated.

Which they have been making progress in
