This show is about entertainmen...ve said it before. This show is about entertainment. There are a dozen other boring shows that deal with the mundane and mechanical. I watch it to laugh not her that other BS that Despain or Speed Report shows all the time. Mike and Kenny are who they are and that's what makes the show good. It goes bad everytime they try to make it something it's not. <BR/><BR/>When was it best? When Mike, Kenny and JB were there with AB. And the show was a success too with no one trying to fix it all the time. <BR/><BR/>If you don't like it, QUIT WATCHING IT. I hate for ytou to have to suffer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-41349288083738292022008-04-11T04:27:00.000-04:002008-04-11T04:27:00.000-04:00FINALLY Speed realizes the show isn't a show with ...FINALLY Speed realizes the show isn't a show with out the GREAT KENNY SCHRADER............

This will give me a chance to execute my plan. I am going to make note of every sponsor in the "next week's race" segments and superfluous videos. I will then email each sponsors' marketing group explaining how many of us fast forward through those segments and they are wasting their money!! Probably won't change anything, but it will make me feel better. PS...I too love Mikey, but he was really getting on my nerves with everything is great. Every race is not great, it just happens sometimes so get over it. Doesn't mean I won't watch, just means it was boring!!

We watch a lot of SPEED's NASCAR programming as a family.<BR/><BR/>While we love the personalities on the show, Steve, Chad, Mikey, and 'the Biff', it just doesn't work for us. But, in our opinion, it's not the people on the show (we even liked Dave's version!), it's whoever is calling the shots in their headphones! The guests and leader already have been chosen for their personality....give them free reign to show it. <BR/><BR/>Our MAJOR gripe is that there is already enough pre race coverage each weekend on Thur/Fri/Sat/Sun.

He relates to the fans and is credible in his reviews of the topics discussed. Now, they need to look at their format-go back to a review of the race from the weekend and it's highlights with the panel's insight into what actually happened before looking ahead to the next event. If we as fans are looking to understand what's on the horizon for the next race; it helps to know the what and why that happened yesterday that changes the perspective. I have been a fan of Speed's various Monday night Nascar shows, but the current one just doesn't work for me. I hope having Kenny back is a step in the right direction.<BR/>I can't help but think of an interview in the garage with Kenny when his car was wrecked early in a race and the reporter asked if the team could get him back out again to which he replied (with a humorous tone) "Unfortunately they can"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-48352362351198165432008-04-09T23:01:00.000-04:002008-04-09T23:01:00.000-04:00Schrader!
