With apologies to David Letterman.



10. To wife, "They say the tv adds ten pounds to you. Thank goodness they didn't show you on that backstretch HDTV".

9. To husband, "They also call that thing the idiot box. You couldn't take your eyes off of it. Do the math".

8. "The world should have ended after 'gentlemen, start you're engines', because that's three hours I'll never get back."

7. "The Pro Bowl called. They said keep up the good work."

6. "I've seen more sparks fly at an anti-tobacco convention."

5. "I heard Miss Manners watched the race tonight. In related news, there are now 21 new openings for freelance advice writers on her website."

4. "14 oz. cup of beer - $8.00
race ticket - $75.00
race program - $15.00
Carl Edwards post race celebration overshadows entire race - priceless"

3. "I can't wait for next week because the Harvick/Busch fued will surely reignite when the race offers no points. Oops, nevermind."

2. "Next weekend's race is how many laps?!"

....... and the number one thing overheard after last night's All-Star race is:

1. "New rule - 1st place gets one million dollars. 2nd place and beyond? George Foreman grills."
 
The only thing said in my house after the race was "boy, that race sucked."
 
#2 How can this race suck anymore? It can't....

#1 Who were those 90 year old guys changing Stewart's tires?
 
The All Star race has been boring for years... every now and then they get a good one, but for the most part, they've sucked lately.

I don't know how they've done it but, in three years, NASCAR/Brian France/Bruton Smith have ruined: Bristol, Daytona, Talladega, Richmond and The All Star Race.
 
Doesnt help either when we have had to hear about this race non stop since the very first Speedweeks show aired at daytona.
 
I was listening on MRN, they didn't even try to save this race... Guess Barney and Moody are sick of trying to make awful races sound exciting.
 
That's pretty amazing since PRN was doing the race. :D

Not this race at this track. The Sprint Showdown qualifying race and NASCAR Sprint All-Star Race are broadcast on MRN, despite being held at Charlotte Motor Speedway, an SMI-owned track.
