"since a driver should have an implied assumption nobody is walking towards you on a race track"

No one speeds up to get around someone.

How am I in denial? You are telling me that this fan in the stand had a telescopic microphone picking up the audio from the other side of the race track, and able to cancel out the noise of all the other cars?

Sprint cars don't accidentally fishtail. They are built to fishtail when you accelerate. Plus a racer of Stewart's quality, who has raced most of his life, you can guarantee that he has full control and mastery of his vehicle. If he wanted to go around Ward, he could have gone around Ward, instead he guns it under…

any good lawyer would argue that you can't be certain that the engine rev came from that car, since there are many other cars not in the video not in sight. And would also be easy to argue that he didn't see him, since a driver should have an implied assumption nobody is walking towards you on a race track. And that…

It's quite audible (and visible) on the video of the incident that he guns the engine.

Thanks. I don't watch any motor sports, so was wondering this as well. Hoping that someone puts together a clip of these poor judgment incidents for non-fans who want to get a better idea of the prevalence and type of behaviors these drivers have.

Not saying it was acceptable, just that it's not unreasonable to expect drivers to anticipate a bit of foot traffic during the caution—the service cars were out there already and track staff were attending to Ward five seconds after he landed, so they can't have been far off—and drivers should conduct themselves with…

Wow, way to read too much into it. You asked a question, I answered; you reply with "well that seems like a dumb thing for Ward to do," and I reply with, in essence, "it was, but it was an even dumber thing for Stewart to do." I'm not insinuating anything; all I had to say, I said.

Here's Tony Stewart out of his car throwing his helmet at Matt Kenseth's car.

That is either the last 2 items for an awesome party, or the saddest party ever. Could go either way.

I never really thought about what women on their period in third world countries have to go through. This post is one of those cold splashes of perspective. Thank you, sincerely.

Nothing justifies saying that to a customer. NOTHING. You could have been in a bra and panties.

My supermarket shopping the other day was a giant bottle of disinfectant, a turnip, a fuse, and shaving cream.

I can understand the anxiety. I live in an area of crazy Bible-thumping nutjobs who would do the same thing. Heck, there's a number of stores around here that keep the condoms behind the counter/glass and you have to ask for them.

I will admit I have trouble buying condoms. I have a lot of social anxiety based on the fear of being judged. The last time I bought condoms (a 50-pack because they were on sale), the woman at the register called me a slut and said that I was going to burn in hell for being a whore.
I guess, in her defence, I did…

I personally chuckle at whether or not the cashier wonders what I'm doing with all of the stuff that I'm buying along with the condoms. Razors? Goldfish crackers? A snickers bar? Freaky.

As a man whose bought tampoons for his girlfriend, I've always wondered why the hell it's considered a joke.

Isn't it more disheartening to see that some of the responses are from women?

Thanks for the cheap groceries, Putin. That'll, uh, learn us?
