Mike Massaro will make great successor of Burr.<br /><br />Congrats to Manske on her recent engagement and her wedding coming up in December.

(Wow - when was the last time I felt that about anyone not called BP?) Anyway, good luck Ryan, and good luck to Nicole too.<BR/><BR/>Just before you leave us Ryan (if you are reading), would you like to talk to the top man in ESPN Nascar for us, and shout a few simple words into his ear.

As he was with NN, he is the ultimate professional. He is as comfortable with Digger Phelps, as he was with all the NASCAR insiders. <BR/><BR/>I do not agree with this column that "it was clear" Ryan did not know NASCAR well. I thought he was one of the best, certainly miles ahead of Manske. <BR/><BR/>I believe going to college hoops is a ppromotion for Ryan and allows him to work with some of the great professional in college basketball. When Ryan started in the sport industry, he was recognized for his excellent work, and with this new job/opportunity, it is bearing fruit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-52296876821828404862009-01-10T13:37:00.000-05:002009-01-10T13:37:00.000-05:00Thanks for the updates,JD.

Even if he wasn't familiar with the sport, he did take the time to present things well. Nice to hear about Manske and Massaro, too. I'm not planning on upgrading to HD -- I don't need to see things quite as up close as lots of people think I need to -- I just want to see the things that interest me done right.GinaV24https://www.blogger.com/profile/10828669350024430018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-56474743373122596432009-01-10T12:15:00.000-05:002009-01-10T12:15:00.000-05:00That reminds me, I saw some SPEED HD content added...That reminds me, I saw some SPEED HD content added On-Demand here recently on Charter (as well as some from other FOX cable networks), so hopefully SPEED HD itself won't be too far behindSonicADhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06647057393154203533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-55833758547916854852009-01-10T11:14:00.000-05:002009-01-10T11:14:00.000-05:00Good luck to Ryan Burr.

He played a large roll in the restoration of ESPN's NASCAR credibility re: NASCAR Now. <BR/><BR/>In some ways, RB's lack of "insider" status was a plus. His purely journalistic instincts allowed him to approach the job from a neutral perspective. In my opinion, he performed very well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-307372236063838392009-01-10T02:30:00.000-05:002009-01-10T02:30:00.000-05:00Congrats to Ryan Briscoe, nice work bro-cdhCongrats to Ryan Briscoe, nice work bro<BR/><BR/>-cdhAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-25856166514468942082009-01-10T02:20:00.000-05:002009-01-10T02:20:00.000-05:00West Coast Diane said:JD...thanks for all the upda...West Coast Diane said:<BR/><BR/>JD...thanks for all the updates and gossip..haha. <BR/><BR/>Wow...Nicole and Ryan Briscoe. <BR/>Would love to know how they got together!

He should've been on it all along. Funny, BSPN can make a good move on this show by putting the right guy in the right place, but the booth? Whole different story. Ryan, if you're reading, no offense.<BR/><BR/>Regarding the Nicole story, I read it on AOL Sports. I even looked around on other sites before posting here. Couldn't find anything on it. I wonder if the SPEED Report will mention it. <BR/><BR/>Just a mention on HD on SPEED. It's available on my cable system. However, not my TV. No extra money to upgrade the set. Will the TV prices ever go down? I checked out some prices. All I have to say is, it better do more than let me watch it.
