It was stupid when Brit wore it, and it's even more stupid with Krista wearing it. Each week she brings out the ugliest hat award. <BR/><BR/>I think she's mediocre on the air, it's just hype because she plays up the blonde thing like Jamie Little. Both have web sites showing their navel.

Looking back at older races with close finishes, the cameras followed the trucks/cars involved in it after the line. No wide shot was needed, as EVERY race does not need the shot especially when the lead machines are within hundredths of a second. It would be nice to see more often, I agree, but was unnecessary in this situationUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05555965613877228435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-54641019505470649372007-10-06T22:00:00.000-04:002007-10-06T22:00:00.000-04:00Couple comments on the comments here.

Has anyone here ever seen Krista in a ponytail? Don't think so. Do you think it might mean she doesn't like them? Probably!!! Did anyone not enjoy Tony on the show? I did, Absolutly!!! Do you think just maybe Tony(& Dale Jr.) feels more at ease with the easy going professionalism of the Speed and Fox broadcasters? It sure looks like it to me. Did anyone not enjoy the prerace show. I did, Absolutly!!! Missed Ray, but Bob did fine. Keep up the good work on "The Setup" Krista and Speed.

No, they didn't have the camera zoomed in on the top 2 at the line like TNT did at the Pepsi 400 with McMurray and Busch but if they zoomed in they would have missed all the trucks cross the line, which is something fans constantly complain about, including myself.stricklinfan82https://www.blogger.com/profile/01808897974344304657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-50925086302867214222007-10-06T18:25:00.000-04:002007-10-06T18:25:00.000-04:00Directing was off they just went to Rick Crawford ...Directing was off they just went to Rick Crawford as they were announcing Todd Bodine.

NASCAR made a controversial decision to clear Jacques to run the Cup race despite having only 1 prior Truck start (in which he crashed) to his credit before this weekend. Jeff Gordon and Kyle Busch openly criticized that decision, and numerous fans have also been very outspoken on this issue. Add in the fact the Jacques made a mistake and caused a crash in the truck race at Talladega, I'd say this is a major story that's worth discussing on the air.<BR/><BR/>I know ESPN's going to mention Jacques, because he's an F1 champion and Indy 500 winner making his stock car debut. I just hope that they are fair and don't hide the fact that there is a legitimate concern over his presence in this race. I hope they do more than just tell a story talking about how much of a world-clas driver he is and how great this is for NASCAR, and skip over the obvious controversy surrounding his being there.stricklinfan82https://www.blogger.com/profile/01808897974344304657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-83981865872721973292007-10-06T17:55:00.000-04:002007-10-06T17:55:00.000-04:00That excitement during "the big one" is what we ne...That excitement during "the big one" is what we need on the cup side.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-30841939751376538122007-10-06T17:48:00.000-04:002007-10-06T17:48:00.000-04:00I don't think they should "hype" this story though...I don't think they should "hype" this story though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-76925060423528451472007-10-06T17:36:00.000-04:002007-10-06T17:36:00.000-04:00Nope, nothing broke on his truck.

I hope the ESPN guys don't cover up this obvious controversial subject in the pre-race show tomorrow. Drivers and fans have been very critical of NASCAR's decision to approve Jacques to run the Cup race, and with today's incident shining a brighter light on it I certainly hope ESPN isn't afraid to talk about it. I'm sure Brad Daugherty for one will speak his mind on the subject instead of giving the politically correct answer that other analysts might give.stricklinfan82https://www.blogger.com/profile/01808897974344304657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-50535893274429542102007-10-06T17:33:00.000-04:002007-10-06T17:33:00.000-04:00nothing broke it was his fault. waltrip and parson...nothing broke it was his fault. waltrip and parsons agree.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-18364841071599114002007-10-06T17:32:00.000-04:002007-10-06T17:32:00.000-04:00Say what you will about Mikey, but he does provide...Say what you will about Mikey, but he does provide some good insight from a driver's perspective & does it with energy (yes sometimes a little TOO much).

The video looked very inconclusive and it very well could have been a simple case of driver error by a driver making his second ever start in a vehicle with fenders. I'm sure the Cup guys that voiced concerns over Jacques getting instant clearance to run in the Cup race at Talladega are even more concerned now if that was indeed a case of inexperience causing that crash.<BR/><BR/>Again, we haven't heard from him yet but if something didn't break on his truck and he caused that wreck by making a mistake I certainly hope ABC will make Villenueve a big story on the pre-race show tomorrow.stricklinfan82https://www.blogger.com/profile/01808897974344304657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-16016463405266218692007-10-06T17:24:00.000-04:002007-10-06T17:24:00.000-04:00I think Allen & Parsons are a good team in the boo...I think Allen & Parsons are a good team in the booth without Mikey.
