Oooh! I’ve got a great idea!

Depends; are they Richard Petty Motorsports fans? Because losing is a tradition as well.

If a NASCAR fan were flying the Confederate Flag, wouldn’t that be about as disrespectful toward the American Flag as anything in the history of America?

I read that article separately yesterday. What a bunch of whiny little pricks.

Machismo is only long-distance, I guess.

To be fair, got in arguments with some lawyer friends yesterday over it. ‘Should’ is not a directive and non-binding wording. ‘Shall’ would mean it has to be followed. And apparently, ‘shall’ may not be good enough anymore, it might be ‘must’.

Truck comes in, truck goes out. You can’t explain that.

Not going to lie, the small overlap is my favorite test. It’s always insane to watch and it’s fun to compare models that compete in the same segment.

My name is Otto, and I like to get blotto.

Well, he does have an impressive record. What is it, 44 arrests and zero convictions?
