Better yet, take a lawn chair and a cooler of your favorite snacks and beverages down to the nearest street corner and spend an afternoon watching people turn left without having to pay for your seat.

POC here. Grew up watching NASCAR on the TV. Went to my first race a couple years ago at Loudon. Even that far north, things were super, super uncomfortable for me. Seeing how many confederate flags there were—a symbol of the philosophy that I am not a person but am property—was terribly unsettling. And no one should…

“To classify NASCAR after one experience or one track’s fan base is JUST like racism, no? You know, the who generalization about an entire group of people or things just from one small interaction with a portion of that group? “

I forgot about that time we made NASCAR fans slaves for 400 years, then systematically…

“If you’re trying to attract people to NASCAR viewership, I’d highly recommend you don’t advise people to go to races in person. I’ve never been to a less enjoyable spectator event.”

Well, Nascar is almost exactly like the NFL in this regard. Why go to a race when I could just stay home and have better viewing angles? Sure, I get to listen to mostly dipshit race announcers but the trade off is that I don’t get to either sit in oppressive heat/horrible rain next to completely drunk assholes in a…

THIS GUY AARON RODGERS I CALL HIM JOSEPH N. WELCH CAUSE HE IS MAKING A GUY NAMED MCCARTHY LOOK LIKE THE BIGGEST IDIOT IN AMERICAN HISTORY.

“Lady boys”? Please go fuck off back to whatever era you’re from.

““F1 is just a bunch of lady boys. They are the figure skaters of the racing world and appeal to the same demographic but much younger and mostly male while also being less entertaining than figure skating.””

I live relatively close to Michigan Speedway and have been to one race. That was enough. If anybody asks if they should go to a race I tell them they should to to one for the experience, but that should be enough.

slow clap

If you’re trying to attract people to NASCAR viewership, I’d highly recommend you don’t advise people to go to races in person. I’ve never been to a less enjoyable spectator event. The quality of seating at all of the tracks I’ve been to sucks, I happened to always go in the summer and spring and the seating areas…

yelling “STOP!” has broken up zero* fights in the history of ever.

It’s pretty refreshing to see an athlete admit that he didn’t call it off the glass.

I’m willing to forgive him because I imagine he was utterly stunned that it was a completion. The instant Rodgers threw it I was convinced he was throwing it away to avoid a sack, and even when Williams dove for it I assumed he landed well out of bounds. I suspect I was just one of many on both counts.

Football is a game with many problems, but it must be the best sport out there for showcasing the stupid great skill and athletic ability of these guys have in an extremely visceral “there is no fucking way I could do that” sort of way. Like, I intellectually know that doing anything useful against a 100 mph fastball…

Oh thank gods. It’s pushing 11:00 am Monday on the East Coast, and there was only one post. Ever since Splinter got abruptly taken out behind the barn, I get nervous about longs gaps like that.

“The wind probably helped out a little bit on that one.”- Chris Berman, on his ability to clear out the studio after perusing the Craft service table.

The federal government has increased taxes dozens and dozens of times.  They just keep spending more, they never actually reduce the deficit.

Not meaning to start the typical internet shouting match (I swear!), but those weren’t bad moves, at all. The Detroit bailouts paid for themselves and were a *fraction* of what Trump is now handing out to corporate farmers as a result of his trade war. Cash For Clunkers was NOT an environmental move; It was an…
