And so it is with Jayski. I visit everyday. It's the Google News of all things NASCAR but there isn't a lick of original content there. The ones that shhould be on that list are sites like TDP who supply all the great writing that Jayski capitalizes on. Maybe his is in the top 50 from the advertiser's point of view but as has been said, it's nothing more than a listing of today's press releases.Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10283047990239738052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-19381285132489755052011-08-18T11:54:23.353-04:002011-08-18T11:54:23.353-04:00dont get me wrong, jayski serves a purpose and i l...dont get me wrong, jayski serves a purpose and i look at it everyday. but jayski is no longer a rumor site. it has become media and pr release clearinghouse. i havent seen an actual rumor on jayski in years.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-59978107191982887432011-08-17T17:33:09.571-04:002011-08-17T17:33:09.571-04:00No offense to NASCAR Now, but that race was one of...No offense to NASCAR Now, but that race was one of the best races of the year.

Adam Carolla is the same preteen goof he always has been. The show is utterly unwatchable.Speed has introduced several shows in the last few years that fill into this category.Other than the CWTS, Rolex Grand Am and F1 races there is very little to watch on that channel anymore.<br /> I also sent several emails to various sponsors of shows like the Car show, Hopefully more people wikk do the same and restore some dignity to a once proud channel.MortonGrove Donnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-80131709839573455882011-08-16T18:20:49.426-04:002011-08-16T18:20:49.426-04:00ESPN has usually shown Montreal qualifying in year...ESPN has usually shown Montreal qualifying in years past. I don't really care about practice, but qualifying will be interesting with 49+ entered and road course qualifying rules. It's sad ESPN drops the ball on their last Nationwide stand-alone weekend of the season.

I've never seen the show, but I would *think* that SPEED would prefer not to revert to such stereotypes in order to grow their audience.

I kind of sat up when he and they were talking about "chicks" (pleased to meet you and you and you). Obviously sexist, maybe a joke, maybe not the norm. Next show it was more of the same, it is the norm. I'm not outraged, we are paying for SpeedTV and did what anyone else can do, we changed the channel and don't bother with it anymore. Advertisers can check to see who's watching and if the precious 18 to 34 age group is watching then it will stay. We aren't in that age group and don't really matter to the focused group the advertisers are trying to reach. That's fine with us.<br />But with that said: Good luck to the disenfranchised and marginalized amongst us in pointing out the obvious hateful remarks to the said advertisers.John in Chiconoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-53947859115610270542011-08-16T14:00:41.487-04:002011-08-16T14:00:41.487-04:00I used to enjoy watching Peter walk the grid.

I'm sure they'll find a good way to utilize his knowledge...very unfortunate that the effort did not work out; but I think it's cool that they gave it a shot.<br /><br />I am a fan of *both* Greg & Boris, and I try and look at things objectively. There are probably things that happened between them that have created this 'situation' that we never saw. And then it gets to be a back & forth thing (a bit like KuBu/JJ). I don't think Boris shouldn't race people hard under the right circumstances. You owe that to your owner and your sponsor, and to the fans. My guess is Ragan was aggravating him and he was just as guilty in that part of their deal, the 00 an innocent victim. <br /><br />But I'd like to know more about what Boris is saying Greg did *before* the cameras rolled, and I look forward to hearing Greg's version of the story. I did find it interesting to hear Rusty say on NNow that he was also very bothered by any driver that gestured at him during a race. You'd think these guys would be immune to that sort of thing, but it sounds like that was something that just pushed Boris' buttons. Can't say I haven't done it myself. But I know it's wrong. :) . I know Steve Byrnes will be his usual professional self in trying to be fair. Greg has been kind cranky lately with the whole 99 deal--I'm usually more impressed with his knowledge about his cars rather than his rants on other drivers, but he usually has something interesting to say one way or the other. And you know NASCAR is smiling, no matter what they claim, the more highlights the better!Stick with the Biffnoreply@blogger.com
