Maybe if Carl had been hurt in that 'dega wreck, (not that I want that) he would have understood. But I do think when he gets to Cup he will eventually 'get it.' He's young, and this younger set might be lulled into a false sense of comfort because of all the safety features (LaJoie seats, SAFER barriers, etc.) But that didn't stop Dario F. from breaking his ankle last year. Things will still happen. I know we're digressing a little from the broadcast, but it just shows up in Brad's interviews so that's when I think of it.glenc1noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-8953997348614334582009-10-24T21:06:16.626-04:002009-10-24T21:06:16.626-04:00opps my bad I ment to say "Probably because i...opps my bad I ment to say "Probably because it was a stand alone event on a cup weekend so it WASNT your normal guys who produce the Sprint Cup and Nationwide races when there together????"Jonathannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-19979056869638808482009-10-24T21:04:25.396-04:002009-10-24T21:04:25.396-04:00it was good cause of the combination of the 3, the...it was good cause of the combination of the 3, there all down to earth when there together! Could it be this race was much better because the normal producers are in Martinsville, VA??? We had different pit reporters today, better camera shots, better everything.... Probably because it was a stand alone event on a cup weekend so it was your normal guys who produce the Sprint Cup and Nationwide races when there together??? Just a thought but I see tomorrows broadcast to be just as bad as last weekends. Remember how jacked we were at Iowa speedway when it was such a great broadcast, then the cup event stunk broadcast wise.

I still think he has a humongous chip on his shoulder especially after that deal at Charlotte last May and he has amped it up this year. I credit him for not rolling over on anyone and giving it his all, but he has to find that equilibrium between giving it his all and respecting his competitors.<br /><br />He will find it, hopefully by season's end. Might be a school of hard knocks when he goes full time next year...<br /><br />Only caught the last 2/3rds of the NW race today but REALLY felt like ESPN had a solid effort. Probably the best effort since ORP in my opinion.The Loose Wheelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06048709313597675807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-20482160449033350422009-10-24T19:22:12.302-04:002009-10-24T19:22:12.302-04:00Hmm...I guess today's telecast was ok?

Kez's response was leave me alone, it's my deal. <br /><br />Decent job by the broadcast from what I paid attention to. Not much was made of the Cup guys having to come through the field (but I did miss the beginning due to the truck race) which was a good thing. If it were JP, every time a Cup driver was mentioned he would also add that they started in the back.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07253553308887270589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-60668176957626074532009-10-24T18:52:05.620-04:002009-10-24T18:52:05.620-04:00Thanks again for hanging in there with all the cra...Thanks again for hanging in there with all the crazy rain stuff today.<br /><br />Be back to semi-normal tomorrow with live race blog and two new posts later tonight for your comments.<br /><br />9AM - Mayfield on OTL<br />10AM - NASCAR Now on ESPN2<br />11AM - RaceDay on SPEED<br />1PM - Cup pre-race on ABCDaly Planet Editorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13834588435004023666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-26572084282911480332009-10-24T18:51:36.489-04:002009-10-24T18:51:36.489-04:00the only thing that concerns me about Brad's i...the only thing that concerns me about Brad's interviews is that he seems unaware (or really doesn't give a crap) about the consequences of his actions. Teams trying to get/retain sponsors, drivers 'auditioning' for rides...guys potentially getting injured. I like Brad's honesty, and I think he means what he says about the fans. But I think maybe that attitude will be adjusted over time when he has a chance to see some bad stuff.
