SPEED has handled the pre-race action of practice and qualifying this weekend. Sunday afternoon at 1PM will be the first time viewers will be seeing the ESPN on ABC crew.
Allen Bestwick will start the ball rolling with Brad Daugherty and Rusty Wallace from the Infield Pit Studio. The NASCAR Countdown pre-race show should be interesting with Daugherty having just completed a deal to become a satellite team of Michael Waltrip next season in the Cup Series.
Other than The Chasers, there are some names at the back of the field like Terry Labonte and Kenny Wallace that may be a factor before the race is over. Not necessarily in winning, but in helping someone to achieve that goal.
Last season, ESPN was fascinated by "the big one" and said it over-and-over again during the pre-race show. Lost in the shuffle was the actual story of the race field and what viewers could expect other than accidents.
Dr. Jerry Punch will take over at 2PM and begin the race coverage. He will be joined as usual by Dale Jarrett and Andy Petree. Tim Brewer will be in the Tech Center. Down on pit road will be Shannon Spake, Jamie Little, Dave Burns and Mike Massaro.
It is very hard for the announcers to see the backstretch, so they will be basically watching the same pictures as the viewers at home when they are calling the action on that part of the track. The choice of whether they look out at the track or continue to follow the TV monitors in the booth for the other racing should be easy to determine.
The COT has shown both a tendency to allow two cars to run fast when hooked-up just right and to make for boring racing during the early parts of this race. If teams hang back and gather together it will be up to the ESPN crew to choose to inform the viewers or ignore it.
The TV gang has been making great use of the double video box effect that allows the race to continue for the viewers even as Brewer talks tech or a crew chief is interviewed. Look for increased use of the aerial shot and the speed shots, especially after a restart.

I said this tire thing in the pre-race.
The only person that saw this coming. Would have been happy to have been wrong...unfortunately thats not the case.
Denny got the heck knocked out of him. That really sucks, and ESPN missed it initially.
I can't believe how no one has taken this tire thing seriously until 3 tires failed, now they are panicing when the 4th has failed.
If anyone watched the races this weekend this should have been on their radar as something to watch. Its random so there really is no telling who is next.
kind of a classless way to go to commercial there. There's a driver who may be injured, you would think they would show a bit more respect.
On HotPass a 2
On ABC when I switch the audio and watch the top right hand box a 9
from trackpass scanner...lots of guys worried about denny. They know a bad hit when they see it.
this would be a good time for a field summary of the ENTIRE field.
Why does JP keep saying concrete? Just shows he's a decade behind the times.
Wow, didnt look like Denny hit that hard
OOPS! My bad. Not paying attention on the rating. I meant the broadcast is really bad but thr race is good!
hey look! there's ray evernham. what's up with that?
JD, this is an 9 for sure. But I'm listening on MRN mostly.
BREAKING NEWS!!!!!
There's a tire situation. Good grief.
Rich - In my eyes he hit a TON. A few years ago that kind of hit would be a rather severe injury.
Ray Evernham of ALL people should have seen this coming. As an owner these are things he SHOULD be looking out for and should have seen a pattern over the course of the weekend. It should not have taken 4 in-race failures for him to snap out of it and talk about it
dot: LOL... thanks
rusty: how the bloody hell can the DRIVER minimize the effect of a tire compound problem?!? this is NOT a car/tire relationship issue that the driver can impact: it's what goodyear brought that sucks.
damn it: put the responsibility where it belongs!
race coverage is a 9
DH hit going about 180 mph, and then theres the angle and all. What concerns me is the other drivers being concerned. They know a bad hit when they see one.
Goodyear refusing to talk yet.
hmmm too high of tire pressure? oone theory
THANK YOU GIL MARTIN!!!!
That is the best explaination thus far. Makes sense too with the separations and such.
I'm having real issues with ESPN on ABC playing cool rock music to the video of the wrecks.
They're glorifying the damn events that are putting people's lives at risk.
Then again, last year, Dougherty was cheering at a Talladega wreck last year as the wreck slid past the announcement booth.
Looks like Evernham is dying his hair now.
BruSimm - that's exactly what I said a little bit ago. This is the first time in a long while that I can remember an actual driver injury on the track and they're glorifying it with this 'cool music'
rich-
Those are the worst ones, the spectacular ones dissipate a lot of energy. This kind does not.
@JD, the race coverage number exceeds the recent bailout amount.
Tony has asked for the third time if there is any news on Denny.
Oh yeah I guess that would be coverage 8.5 race 3.
coming to the green...are we going to miss it?
nick of time..
point taken, Bevo
Yet another reason to ALWAYS have a NASCAR official in the booth to explain the sanctioning bodies thoughts in the midst of a race.
IF AND WHEN someone appears in the booth will be after this problem gets way too serious.
junior has a bad vibration....
If Gil is correct, won't NASCAR mandate the tire pressures for the rest of the race?
I have the tv on MUTE.
Did we SEE Denny carried into the ambulance...I did not
I hope he's ok..why is TONY needing to ask three times to get an answer...does this mean they don't want to say how bad he is?
I wonder if he has temporary amnesia..that happened to my late father once after an accident..but 15 minutes later he was ok..thank God
JD you asked how I rate this race and I rate it as 10 UNWATCHABLE. I am not a troll but I am a casual enough NASCAR fan to not nitpick every broadcast. But this one is horrible.
The cherry was just on the cake -- Denny Hamlin went out on a stretcher after a horrific crash and ABC mixes it to a Journey song for the out-to-commercial bumper. DISGRACEFUL.
Brusimm I wasn't going to mention the tastelessness of the music, since you did I agree. Really bad taste since we don't know...
And Brad is such a #$%^ - not a fan. I've heard fans go silent or gasp
at real bad accidents only horses#$%
cheer @ wrecks. or add music...

THANK YOU GIL MARTIN!!!!
That is the best explaination thus far. Makes sense too with the separations and such.
yeah, but ya' know what, david? after earnhardt jr's explosion in practice and maybe the first 2 tires today, there's not a crew chief out there who wouldn't have already dialed down any pressures that were a touch too high.
sorry, it doesn't play for me. whenever the tires cause such serious problems, we get told it's either crew chiefs messing with tire pressure OR camber or a driver taking it too hard into the corner. maybe, just maybe, it's the junk that goodyear is bringing to the tracks.
and maybe the booth ought to let us know they're trying to get info on hamlin. frankly, i'm not a fan of his but until i know how he's doing, i'm not too focused on the race . . .
Jessica,
Yes, goodyear is resopnsible for the tire, but NASCAR controls when to alter race conditions if there is a problem - which there clearly is. All weekend, all series, all tire types.
"alert and awake" that's the best we have on denny...bummer.
Denny to hospital, hope he's OK. At least ESPN gave us that info
Denny awake and alert but being taken to hospital per Jr channel
Jessica: "junior has a bad vibration."
It's probably the ESPN roof cam on the car.
Rick Allen says Hamlin going to the hospital
True on the tires but if Goodyear recommends a maximum air pressure and the teams knowingly exceed it then who is to blame? Alot of them have gotten away with it and have probably gotten bolder with what they are running. Heat cycles on the tire have shown to bring out the problem as well...
I don't wanna be on old tires late in this one, especially if there are a series of restarts late
Okay, so we see Stewart take the lead. The cameras go back to focus on Dale Jr. in the middle of the pack for a sustained period of time. When the camera returns to the front, Paul Menard is leading and Stewart's 5th. No one at ESPN in the truck or the booth even cared to notice or acknowledge the lead change.
What are these people thinking?
44 way off the pace, almost to a stop I wonder what the deal is. Oh by the way Schrader back on the lead lap
Ditto to Red's comment on Denny
No updates???
I agree I take my 9 back JD and rate this a TOTALLY TASTELESS 10 with the 'fun bumper music' as they went to commercial after Denny's impact.
I had griping so much but htis network just stinks.
Hold my breath JP says? how about hold my nose?
jim hunter on MRN talking about Denny..being taken to hospital..he was alert and talking...but that's all we got
sophia: "temporary amnesia" sounds like a grade 2 concussion.
"alert and awake" makes me wonder if he was the negative side of either of those when the safety crew reached him. if so, that also sounds like a grade 3 concussion: loss of consciousness and/or going in and out. that level = a mid-week visit to dr petty for a neurological exam before nascar will let a driver back in the seat.
Denny's being taken to the hospital for further observation / evaluation
ESPN needs a neurological exam
I've heard JP say awake and alert before but for some reason this one makes me nervous
%*($, Stop with the bumper cams, or do it on a split screen.
red:
the accident to my late father was 40 years ago and he ended up not going to the hospital (but we had a doctor in the family) and sense he bounced back so quick and had no headache IIRC, we thought it was combo shock and impact. It was from falling off a horse onto his head. A horse we gave back that we had on loan.
Jim hunter gave little info...we will all feel better when we know more.
ESPN focuses on the 3 cars running way behind the pack. By the time they return to the front there's a new leader. I seem to be noticing a trend here.......
I have heard awake and alert from NASCAR powers that be can mean one step awake from life suppports as they like to downplay injuries....
I hope we hear more on SPEED report or by the end of the race.
OK JD its now a 10 UN watchable! Bumper cams the last 3 times I flipped back to see race!
I think they really need R&D on this tire cot combo, not a good track for this to me happening.
thank you rusty and AB for the tire info
is it me or has the race been much better this year? no single file parade. the coverage on the other hand....
what keeps coming to my mind is that the best coverage of 'dega is when the camera shows the entire pack and we can watch all the cars jockey for position. anything else and the real skill involved in running there is just lost.
the lead changes are constant and i don't really understand why the booth gets excited about how many there are per lap. it's what happens at this track and who's where is (almost) unimportant until the last 5 laps.
Seeing Denny scratch his head and hearing he was talking to people in the care center, I imagine NASCAR is being overly cautious here since he did hit a ton.
Had we gone under red and they had to cut him out of the car then I would really start freaking out.
Anyways I am going to try and watch the end of this one. You all know my sentiments on the tire issue.
I wanted to try and find a link to email ESPN before the race to ask if they thought it'd be an issue. Pretty sad when fans are doing a better job forecasting the race then the "experts"
I want to expound on my Dougherty comment: Last year during a Busch race at Talladega, the big one hit and the whole pack slid sideways past the broadcast booth.
There was an inadvertent camera angle as we watched Brad shaking his fist and cheering as if he just won the lottery as the slid past.
I've not been too hot on this guy but trying to give him a chance. But as time goes on, they seem to continually develop his NASCAR ties: "Friends with the Frances," Used to be a team owner, now is one..."
I just got suspicious that they didn't tell us all this up front when he first started covering NASCAR last year, but rather fed this info to us over a period of several months.
I don't wanna bag on Brad. Everyone needs an opportunity, no matter who you are, but more on the processes around his job / task / position.
There are two records in serious jeopardy today...
75 lead changes: 1984 Winston 500 at Talladega
worst TV coverage in NASCAR history: 2007 Sonoma Cup race
I find it amazing that Brian France/NASCAR will change the Bud Shoot out for next year in the middle of this season, but will not go with a better wheel for the COTs. I've heard and read that this could make better and safer racing.
Could it be any more clear that Bestwick needs to be in the booth?
I would love to see the 28 in victory lane at Dega
No JD it couldn't be any clearer to those of us forced to watch/listen to the junk coverage
@ David, you can write to &(%$, but they will not answer you. I'm still waiting. I wrote to them 3 wks ago.
daly planet editor said...
Could it be any more clear that Bestwick needs to be in the booth?
no, jd, it could NOT be more obvious.
but so what? we see it clearly but, IF espn sees it, they are not inclined to change it this season. so we're stuck until next year.
Either Jr just hit a giant bug or something REALLY nasty got tossed up on the track :)
I will never know why Bestwick ended up at the gas pumps. He must have either ticked off the wrong person or someone else has their head up someone's (***), kissing it.
Oops, did I just say that?
I get more info about the entire field from the dedicated driver channels on Hot Pass than from E$PN. It's times like this that make the extra money spent a real value.
JD- no, it couldn't be clearer. btw, is there anything more useless than a 'current chase points' mid-race at dega? maybe tits on a hog but its a close call
A Goodyear person...
Watch Rick the Goodyear rep tap dance.
they interview a goodyear guy during the ONLY DECENT wide shot moments of the race..sheesh...they couldn't wait until a caution>
JMO...i had the tv on mute until his last few seconds
did we learn anything
so, goodyear's going with it being debris, from what i hear.
no signs of heat on the tires and NOTHING with the air pressures either.
huh. now that's interesting.
any talk or competition cautions?
I am getting dizzy upping and lowering volume between tv and radio and coming here...brain is like swiss cheese
@ Bru, that's the $64,000 question about AB. You would think with all the info we can get on the blogs, someone would know the real story.
Why AB is not in the booth is the best kept secret in Nascar.
The AP report (Jenna Fryer) posted 8 minutes ago says Denny was alert and awake but favoring his right foot.
Im not surprised the goodyear rep said that. They have to be clueless here because I'm thrown for a loop too.
I would understand JP being cautious in reporting injury updates, but he should be the one doing the injury updates as the staff physician.
Oh I know...yes other tracks you're "safe" doing that (not that I want/need it at all) but since they're apparently watching a different race than I am, I've seen folks today be in the lead one second and out the next. With tires going and people being caught up in the mess, until the checkered flag waves and everyone has crossed safely, we don't know *who* stands where.
I think one of the funniest comments someone made about AB/ESPN was that he whizzed in someones Wheeties. LOL
thanks for the update on Denny
Have they done a thru the field today?
44 went to the garage how long ago? Never heard another word about it.
Dot 1 thru the field got a few cars in but the crash, none since
Kenny as the leader...that is priceless to hear from Punch.
smooth move showing a driver who's not even in the race before going to commercial...
Wrong video selection by the truck there. McDowell no longer drives the 00.
Go Herman! Lead this race! And then they show the Michael McDowell graphic
dot, they did one at halfway.
difference between radio and TV:
When Edwards spun leaving pit road, MRN raised their level of excitement to explain what happened.
ESPN laughed about it and thought it was funny.
It didn't really make a difference as he had no damage and only lost one spot near the back of the pack on the lead lap, but really??? LAUGHTER???
geee when did Kenny get a full body transplant and name change?
dot, they tried but, in all fairness, it just isn't the sort of racing that allows for that: by the time one gets thru the first 3, they get freight trained by the other lane and they're now running, oh, 15th+.
I loved seeing the Michael McDowell video graphic when talking about Kenny Wallace!!! Hey ESPN - McDowell isn't in the race!!
anon - they showed the 44 heading to pit road with problems a while ago
Now THAT was embarrassing... Kenny Wallace stays out to lead a lap in the #00 and the production trucks calls up the Michael McDowell video bumper. I don't know what else there is for this production truck to screw up between now and the last lap, I really don't.
ok, i love the home depot send off commercial...
Thanks nrf, I must've hit the wall and forgot.
MRN talked about how Edwards could benefit from spinning because to come back to pit road means he can top off on fuel. Will ESPN mention this?
David, you sound quite knowledgeable about tires, could you share a little bit of your background?
BWAHAHAHA
Kenny Wallace is leading the race and ABC throws up the film clip of Michael McDowell folding his arms with his name up there.
It is like amateur hour at ABC.
So with Kenny leading, they go into a hundred commercials! I've just switched to ESPN from MRN. Think I'll go back to MRN.

details, details.
seriously, tho', you know that saying "the devil is in the details"? it truly is.
once more during an espn broadcast, i have to say it: the wheels are seriously off this bus.
ton of cars repitting for fuel, Chad thinks it was the cars that only took 2 and didn't get it full
Good news: Jerry Punch finally had some excitement in his voice!!!
Bad news: It was for the Grey's Anatomy promo!
Edwards coming back in to top off
The 83 car is out on the track WITHOUT a wing. Kinda funny they haven't mentioned that yet
I thought they couldn't drive it without a wing
Same here, heard from several other people on a message board I visit say that though.
watch for the 88 and 48 to hook up, lots of radio chatter....
Edwards good to go with plenty of fuel
phathead said...
Same here, heard from several other people on a message board I visit say that though.
hmmmm. i'm pretty confident a car is NOT allowed on the track without the rear wing. i hope someone with better eyes than mine can catch the #83 -- if we get to see it in the field.
Jr mentioned there wern't no way to go 49 laps at Dega with out a caution so why bother to top off?
'Cousin Carl' is getting old. Does Punch have a limit amount of words to use?
Gosh Andy, how does a car spin out?
im pretty sure i see a wing on the 83
We at TDP need to take a collection for bidding on the next Nascar TV contract.
red - i'm having someone go back through the footage to find the image. He ducked back in the garage and it looks like he has one now.
Well I cant say ive worked for Goodyear or really ever done anything in racing. Spent the last year in Mooresville, NC going to the NASCAR Tech school out there and recently just moved back to AZ since my financial situation is pretty bad and I can live at home for awhile lol. But this tire thing...I've watched racing for over 10 years and I've picked up alot on the way. That, and I am a storage bin of useless information.
School taught me a little about tires, not just race tires but passenger car tires and how the forces they are put through on the track (even when they don't fail) is amazing. High air pressures make sense to a degree but so does the incredlby close tolerances they have in the fenderwell clearances. With a good bump draft into your rear clip and already close wheelwell tolerances it could stand to reason the tire gets a small cut all the way around the tire and as the pressures build the tire peels away from the sidewall and the caps separate...
hopefully this helps with the person that asked where my well of useless information came from lol
ri88girl-
That's why he drives and isn't a crew chief ;)
phathead @5:24: copy that. thanks.
bevo-
LOL yoo funny, you'er right
People should not be laying the blame on Goodyear for the tire problems today ...
Friday's ARCA race had tire problems ... EVERY caution was caused by a tire problem ... and those were Hoosier tires ...
Maybe it's the track or the track workers ...
Jerry Punch's new favorite expression: "one strong horse"
So now they go to another gazillion commercials because Montoya is leading? If Junior were in the front, do you think this would happen?
Alex, I'm in. I know NOTHING about broadcasting, but at least I know what people want. To SEE the race, for heaven's sake!
Why do we need hi-lite promos to the commercial? Seems like a waste of race coverage to me..
sounds like we missed the best part of the race while espn was at commercial.
jr kicks Kyle B in the shorts to take the lead!! says MRN
hope we get to see that..kyle was driving craxy
MRN guys are hilarious..during commercial for tv as usual
Talladega in the spring was Kyle Busch 1 JPM 2 and that's where they are running now. Jerry Punch is buried in notes and can't even reference this. But he sure can call those numbers.
@Alex, I've been thinking that same thing. JD, you can be the treasurer.
huh...out out red wine. ESPN must be really crappy. JD, change my score to 9.
Jr replay video over MORE GF racing.
I LOVE JR but use some judgement ES P U !!!
it's one thing to miss the lead change at commercial. don't come back and show highlights to make us miss more green flag racing.
ESPN is pathetic.
Time for Punch to crank it up and bring it home.
commercial free 'til the end? I will believe it when I see it.
MRN at commercial...JP said commercial free to the end!!
SERIOUSLY
32 laps to go..we will see
Comm'l free to the end? Place your bets folks. Add to the contract kitty.
Alex
I'm in. Price should be cheap after espn kills the sport.
Wine does not help this coverage. Try hard liquor
"Commercial Free until the end"
I'm sure the thats if there is not a caution... but I too will believe it when I see it.
Comm'l free - not a chance!
"folks, we're commercial free to the end."
remember, everyone: a disaster of a meal is NOT saved by a great dessert! another example: " . . . even if we have OVERTIMW9!) at the end of this race . . ."
i appreciate "commercial-free" but it's not going to excuse the cluster $%@# thsi race broadcast has been.
wine in sufficient quantities and I'm finding this coverage humorous..
Jr keeps pushing cars through the corners.. .he might get black flagged if he's not careful.
Red Amen & Amen brother. Preach on!
I'll set up a corporation for our contract kitty. Dot, want to be Pres? Alex for treasurer.
I love how DJ and Andy get so excited.
fricking little boys playing with bumper cams again....jesus, mary and josephine...more bumper cam.
Wow, just checked the audio on abc and heard a shout out to the 7 a non chase racer from DJ, thanks DJ
Thank you JPM! Outstanding help!
go mikey!!
I wonder if they show a full-screen replay of the action we missed during the full-screen replay.
Red
AMEN to your cluster comment.
We complain and they shove MORE BUMPER cams on the last few laps.
UNFRICKING REAL. got the tv muted again and MRN on
Mikey is going to make it interesting.
Commercial free for 32 laps, best thing they've said all day.
go MIKEY
sheesh,,FRICKING BUMPER CAMMM AND A WRECK> WTF????????
Here we go.
Whoever estimated 600 comments earlier... you're gonna be right!
punch,,,"oh...trouble." ya think?!?
caution...bet we see commercial..how about an update on Denny?
Fun ride for Happy :)
" wonder if he got tapped"??????
Excuse me you are there to tell us!!!!
harvick and others amazing..and thankfully the grass didn't mess up the splitter. YAY
Jessica,
I had a 12 pack to start the race and now I've moved on to wine. The commentary is pretty funny at this point.
Harvick spins through the grass and they conjecture if he got spun out there?
Put some sheet metal up in their face... oh, wrong question.
Harvick DID break a brace on the splitter
neat seeing the grass resting on the seat inside happy's car just then. and an AMAZING miss by the #6!
DJ and AP are cranking it up, but Punch is still M.I.A. being a cliche machine
I bet it's killing them not going to comml. How's JP going to get excited?
I would think that this break would be the best time to do an update on Denny. Even if it is with Jim Hunter from NASCAR just saying he is OK and going to be checked over.
Ok, who would be the worst-case scenario for race winner for ESPN today?
Nemechek? Waltrip? Kenny Wallace? Scott Riggs?
Alex
I guessed 600 comments for today..maybe 700 !!
I hadn't posted during a race in a while and ESPN messing up Dega is majorly honking me off...thus 300 comments by me
ha
(embarrassed Sophia) ;-)
Brusimm - you were right that was a sheet metal moment! LOL
And what was ESPN showing us at the time to cause us to miss that most recent incident? BUMPER CAM!
I think we've missed every incident live today, and almost every lead change. Not because ESPN was in commercial, but because the production truck was showing us anything but the huge pack of race cars. Billboards, bumper cams, roof cams, and 'Up to Speed' among Chasers have made us miss everything today! Unreal.
I love to hear DJ talk about racing
brusimm said (in part):
"Put some sheet metal up in their face... oh, wrong question."
might be the wrong question but the answer is still the right answer!
Bad news: This coverage sucks.
Even worse news: Since Time Warner Cable is in a disagreement with the Buffalo CBS affliate, I can't switch to visual football with the Bills and Cardinals (the radio feed is being played instead).
Good news: ABC seems to be focusing more than usual on non-Chasers.
bummer about the brace on the splitter.
THANKS for the feedback..see, that splitter needs to be tweaked...big time. Doesn't cause this many issues in truck races does it?
You think ESPN is going to rush off the air after the checkered? Time is getting tight.
Another missed caution/wreck by ESPN because of poor directing.
Let's see what Kyle Busch's crew chief has to say for whatever reason.
Can we get an update from Michael Waltrip's or Joe Nemechek's crew chief? I bet not.
Sop I actually think Harvick is missing a brace bit it's on the side, at least that's what I think I saw
Steve Addington said hustle......ehehe
I think he wants to hustle her.....
Kevin did a great job with that one.
Bet Ragan needs a shorts change, though.
thanks Strick for noticing MY EARLIER gripe...BUMPER cam at latest incident.
I think we need sound effects for the booth..crickets chirping for punch.
WOW, he LOOKS GREAT ON TV!!! JD, how can he sound so bad at this position but look so well on tv? great smile, looks coherent. What the heck is the deal with the dear doc?
JD..you would think that, but that would imply ESPN using common sense. And since JP is still in the booth, and AB is not..well. Nuff said. Nothing personal againse JP, I just feel AB is better for the booth. Give old Doc a firesuit and mic.
it does in trucks as well.
it only becomes a factor if you go lawnmowing through the grass.
kyle busch had issues with it in Daytona in the truck race for awhile i believe...maybe it was Charlotte
Thanks JP for that update on Harvick...I saw the brace broken as soon as he got out of the grass
That was an odd interview with Brian...
Send in the sheet metal, Do Not update Denny, & for the love of heaven More bumper cams & graphics - I see cars on the track!! Fix that!!!
Nice to hear Doc excited - unfortunately it was about next weeks race....
Sheeshhhh...
JD - I expect a scathing review up later today or tomorrow. This cannot go on like this with ABC.
Western NY
TW has CBS gripe? A city north of hear they dropped the only NBC affiliate...don't know if that has been resolved...weird seeing your post about similar issue.

So I actually think Harvick is missing a brace bit it's on the side, at least that's what I think I saw
nrf, you'd have a career with espn if you could just learn to ignore information like that for a bunch of laps! you're providing information WAYYYY too quickly for espn standards.
Odd wads out front. That blows the script.
The name's Bruce Gang. I've posted here before under my real name, Bruce Simmons.
No to mention, helping this hit 600!
Odd Wads LOL
If an odd wad wins the silence will be deafening! And the graphics will be wrong for him.
The funny thing is, this would be so easy to fix with just a couple of simple changes. Hopefully, we can expect that during the off-season.
JD better have a scathing review or there will be an uprising.
Actually with this being the CHASE and "FIXATION ON bleeping bumper cams" and the like, this blows...sophia types as another bumper cam....a good idea run amok...
ESPN should be FIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This coverage is the worst i have ever seen! Keep the wide shots! They have 28 cars in a pack with tons of movement and they keep switching to bumper cams and close up shots.
AWFUL
