Maybe it’s because of his lack of exposure, but there is really no one else I would rather listen to on the teevee than Wally Dallenbach. For my money, he’s got just the right touch. Wonder how others feel about him?
Kyle Petty, on the other hand — WAY overexposed. His schtick has grown tiresome.
Pretty cool, young Trevor Bayne and the Wood Bros. taking the front row at the second Daytona race of the year. Too bad the idiot Brad Keselowski dumps him. Boy, that Keselowski drives dumb, talks dumb, too.
Personally, and I’m sure this is the first time I’ve mentioned this, but I’m pulling again, and almost all the time, for Tony Stewart. I like the cut of his jib, always have, and as a small (microscopic) businessman, I respect the owner/operator. About the only guy I don’t care to see win is that grinning Missouri jackass, Carl Edwards. He rubs me the wrong way for some reason…probably the fact that he never doesn’t sound like Eddie Haskell.
Social media fails again — trying to find streaming fan pix of Daytona is a fruitless endeavour. Tell me again about all this Tweetbooksquare mashup garbage and how it’s changing the face of the internet. BZZZT! Wrong, iPad breath! It’s the suck and it always has been so for about 99.9% of normal people.
Fvcking fly-over! America, Hell Yeah! They don’t do fly-overs at that soccer World Cup. Do they?
Can you tell I got the space teevee hooked up in the Racerati World HQ? It’s a little flatscreen, though, and not HD, so I’ll be elsewhere (the Employee Lounge?) , but back regular to smoke Marlboros and whip your ass with my obsos. Gotta check on my Rangers now and then, too.
19:51: As predicted by the NASCAR Insiders, all that pre-race hoo-ha about who’s dancing with who is out the window. Far too many variables come into play. Me, I dig this style of racing, because it’s new and different and changes strategies and styles on the fly. Seems like it should, anyway.
20:18: The little Rangers are getting killt, zip-seis. I don’t see Matt Kenseth as much of an Affliction guy, but it’s probably not a bad audience to shill.
2055: For the life of me, I can’t figure out why Stewart is running with David Gilliland and not Ryan Newman. Well, I’m not a racerman.
2136: Typical wild-ass Daytona finish, huh? Congrats to David Ragan, who had to, per Kyle Petty, overcome a lot of adversity (!), I guess by being forced to step into Dale Jarrett’s Rousch ride at the ripe old age of 25.
