Nascar

I think it would have been a pretty good idea if handled properly. Makes no sense though when they double the amount of commercials. Nascar is going downhill rather quickly if you ask me.

thay have to pay good money to get them on,,double commercials double money,.the races are boring as heck so why not put in a commercial...
my wife says watching a tournament is boring,but she watches races from start to finish.

A friend of mine always makes fun of the fact that I love hockey. To him it's a bunch of guys on skates whacking each other with sticks. Yet he loves to watch guys driving around in circles for hours at a time. Oh well, to each his own.

I can kind of understand doing the commercials that way, if it was handled well, because it's not like other sports where there are natural breaks in the action. But of course, they're using it as an opportunity to ramp up the number of commercials. But, there's money involved, so it's not surprising.

I know alot of people see NASCAR as boring but just like other sports there is alot of strategy in play at all times maybe even more. These guys have to consider changes in the shock package, tire pressure, gas mileage, tire wear, tire camber, trac bar adjustments, brake adjustments, how do they fix an ill handling car within the time limits of the race and of course the pit stops and track position. Remember alot of Engineering is involved in these cars and with technology comes problems, I really enjoy it.
On the other hand I am not a fan of Hockey or Baseball but as stated before to each his own.
