I like Biffle. He has everything working against him: he's too old, has no connections, and is weird-looking. And yet, he's managed to accomplish quite a bit in a sport that values youth, connections and attractiveness. It's genuinely impressive.

CBJSprague24 posted:If anyone held the rights to it, it would be Ganassi, because they own what's left of DEI. That's what I figured would happen should they go that route. I was also under some impression that there was some atypical dealings with the DEI/Ganassi merger. Theresa stopped showing up so they dropped the Earnhardt name. That seemed strange enough to me to suggest that maybe they didn't merge all of their intellectual properties. But I have no idea and can't back that up beyond "it just seemed different," so you're probably right.

My cousin said "Michael Waltrip sounds very gay." I was very proud of hearing that. My wife said the same thing when she started watching. This actually endeared him to her (or is it her to him?).

Trump and Kim Jong Brian actually match up well together. They inherited all their money and their own endeavors have been failures. This is timed perfectly with their still-active search for a new title sponsor, which I'm sure won't be affected by this at all. Look forward to Super-Chase 5.0 to determine the winner of the 2017 Trump Cup. I can imagine Sprint is glad that their contract is over this year.

VikingSkull posted:This is the same organization that uses clips of Kyle Larson's car spraying debris in the crowd as a marketing tool That's a little different, since Larson didn't intend to fly into the fence. Kenseth's wreck and The Fight were people choosing to do something. Then NASCAR said "Don't do that again!" and "Come see people do those things we've told them not to do! Quintessential!"
