    I dont know who this Dave Rodman is that is a commentator on Nascar.com but he has never sat in a racecar I'd be willing to bet. They all talk about avoiding the big one at restrictor plate races and when someone obviously does just that they penalize them 20 places in the race. Dave Rodman talks about how Terry Labonte didnt get out of line when Earnhart deliberately spun him out but then again they didnt put Earnhart on probation for it either. Nascar is gettng to where it applies the rules to those it wants to and lets the ones that would upset the fans slide. I would be willing to bet that if Little E had gone below the line Nascar wouldnt have had the balls to black flag him. Sorry guys, but I had to vent somewhere they wont let me on the chat at Nascar.com anymore because I dont say the kinda things they want new fans reading.

    Pretty soon Nascar races can be seen in the afternoon, right after "Days of our Lives."

    The refs never called Michael Jordan for a travel either when he would take a few steps... When you're a big dog on top of the world, officials tend to look the other way 'cause they don't want to look like the bad guy in any sport.

    I'm not defending NASCAR, but... The drivers were warned in the drivers meeting not to go below the yellow line to improve their position. Tony Stewart put the whole car (not just a wheel or two) below the line to pass Johnny Benson. He wasn't avoiding a crash, other than that if he didn't go under the line he would have had to slow down or drive into the back of Benson, who moved down into the low groove in plenty of time for Stewart to safely check-up. Tony Stewart is one of the biggest dogs NASCAR has right now so I don't think you can fairly say they look the other way when it comes to penalizing the big names. Would they have penalized little "E"? Don't know, he didn't break the rules. (My wife swears the whole think was rigged anyway.)

    What ever happened to Swamp Buggy racing...
    And mud bogs...
    And the International Rollover Competition (can you believe those wimps actually need a RAMP to roll their cars?? I think there should be special extra bonus points for missing the ramp & rolling anyway... half of our IT & Prod drivers would sweep the field...)

    There you go Tom, When do you think they'll have a WWF sponsored WC car? ...or do they maybe have one already? I think that was the last time I watched a complete NHRA event was right before professional wrestling sponsored a car...

    JH THATS GREAT!! We sat on the grid last weekend waiting on an IT vet to be rolled back over! (rolling on the floor laughing my ass off). Do you think we get trashed this bad on their sites? LOL!! Swamp buggies....I think they only had 1 filmed event cause it was the same one I saw all the time.

    Dan, You want stewart to check up, you got to be kidding me, he would of gone to the back in a hurry. I think that rule sucks, one guy blocks and the other gets penalized.

    And as far as stewart speaking out, thats great, the sport needs some emotion like that, not these guys who are afraid to speak the truth due to the nazi hand of nascar. as some of you know i have inside scoop to a lot of stuff in the nascar garage and its unbelievable how much "control" nascar has.
    as far as being rigged, lets just say lil e probably got "the call" but you cannot rig and entire race.

    Keith,

    I can see it now:

    Jeff Gordon in a pink tutu in a super smackdown match against Tony Stewart, armed with his helmet on a 4 foot rope. One wrong move, Tony, and Jeffy might scratch your eyes out!

    Oh, and maybe we could get Mike Skinner's wife to run around the ring hurling folding chairs at both of them and shaking her big... um... fists at the crowd...

    Here's what the crowd for such an event might look like:

    Sorry, I digress...

    Keith, they already had a WWF sponsored car, no kidding.

    Matt, the rule may suck but it was the rule and Stewart knew it. That rule was thought up by some of the drivers, not N----R. They penalized Dave Marcis a whole lap for going under the line Saturday. As for Tony's temper tantrum and a possible smackdown match with Pretty Boy Jeff, I bet if Tony was ever faced with someone he thought might actually take a swing at him he would curl up into a ball on the floor and cry for his mommy.


    My GOD! I just went back and looked at the stuff I've posted on this thread. Why, why, WHY do I know so much about N----R! What is wrong with me? No, I don't want a list. Is there a support group that can help? Maybe if I go to the garage and sit in the FC for a while I'll start to feel better....maybe if I sit in the FC and drink alot of beer.....That's it! It's the damn beer! They put something in the beer that makes me watch N----R! NO MORE BEER! .....well, maybe just a few.

    Daniel,
    here is your therapy: get beat by me in a race. You would be so disgraced you would forget about this Nascar stuff all together.

    I spend a lot of time surfing for amputee midget porn and sometimes I get sidetracked onto tasteless sites like the ones above...

    Mike, so who's who in the stooge lineup? I'm probably most like Larry, since we've both attempted to play a loaf of French bread like an accordian. Of course, my Doc won't refill that particular prescription anymore, so those halcyon days are over...

    Ummmmmmm Gooooooooooood transmission grease. They say rubbin's racing, I always thought that was sex so there aint none of you I want to rub. I am addicted to racing and even though they have to hire experienced Road Racers to put on a good show when it comes to turning right, I still must watch it when it comes on TV. It just really peeves me when I see unjust calls being made at any kind of sport and I made one comment on N----r.com and was banned from entering the chat again.

    Now, it is getting close to home. I have to worry now that I might have to go out on the track with somebody who actually goes to chat rooms on NASCAR.com (and gets banned).

    Some might view that as a good thing.
