If Hill believes the NASCAR coverage is better off when you obstruct the on-track racing by shooting it from a ground level camera there should be no reason at all not to bring that to football coverage as well. I'm sure the reaction will be great from the football audience. Who wants a clear view of live action anyway, right?<br /><br />Even better, if they want to stick to the NFL robot cartoon character they already have they should shoot live plays from the blimp. Make the players tiny little specks and call the shot the "Cletus Cam", pretending it's the view from the robot flying around in outer space.

Let's just put Digger cams along the sidelines and switch to that view when a receiver is attempting a catch or somebody is being tackled out of bounds etc. It's perfect. The beauty of Digger cams and cartoons in the NFL also.

It sure will be interesting to see if screaming cartoon characters dance around the screen when Tony Romo and Donovan McNabb are in the huddle and if those same characters will be screaming and diving out of the way to avoid getting hit by Adrian Peterson and Larry Fitzgerald as they're racing towards the end zone.<br /><br />It's extremely simple. If Hill justifies Digger's integration into NASCAR broadcasts by saying it makes the coverage better then he has absolutely positively no reason at all not to integrate cartoon characters into the NFL coverage as well. If cartoons make the NASCAR broadcasts better then they would certainly make the football broadcasts better, right? So what reason would there be not to do it?<br /><br />I would imagine the pre-game football audience will quickly turn to the NFL on CBS pre-game shows when Curt-Howie-Terry-Jimmy-Michael are interrupted for weekly cartoons of robots flying around in outer space and the in-game fans will quickly tire of Joe Buck, Troy Aikman, Kenny Albert, Darryl Johnston, etc. spending 3 straight hours screaming out in fear of the lives of the cartoon characters that almost got run over by the "big, mean football players".<br /><br />If Hill doesn't integrate the cartoon characters into his football coverage and then dares to bring them back to NASCAR in 2010 then it will definitely confirm what we've all expected. In his mind NASCAR fans are simple-minded idiots and don't deserve the same respect other sports fans do.<br /><br />Time to put up or shut up Hill. If you believe integrating cartoons into sports enhances NASCAR coverage then back up your mouth and do it across the board for all your sports, including the NFL. Otherwise shut up, remove it from NASCAR, and treat us with the same respect you do the football fans and everyone else.<br /><br />Be consistent, that's all I ask.stricklinfan82https://www.blogger.com/profile/01808897974344304657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-45950789502561703152009-06-25T12:17:04.728-04:002009-06-25T12:17:04.728-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.stricklinfan82https://www.blogger.com/profile/01808897974344304657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-12968196624439892152009-06-25T10:16:21.656-04:002009-06-25T10:16:21.656-04:00Fox's beloved animated NASCAR mascot.
