The s' thing only applies to plural words as best as I can remember.<BR/><BR/>The tire that belongs to the bus would be the bus's tire, whereas the parking lot designed for multiple buses would be the buses' parking lot.<BR/><BR/>But anyway....<BR/><BR/>I watched TWIN for the first time in a long time last week to hear from Mikey after his 2nd place finish and it was an enjoyable show once I fast-forwarded through the first 33 minutes of the show that were largely a waste of time.<BR/><BR/>Maybe they'll get the idea that this format doesn't make any sense some time before Homestead. It sure will be "interesting" TV on the day after the season finale if they spend the first 35 minutes previewing the Coors Shootout (formerly Bud Shootout) and put the guy that just won the Sprint Cup hours earlier on the backburner, LOL.<BR/><BR/>I'm not a big fan of Boris's on-air antics. It gets tiring hearing him throw NASCAR under the bus every time he doesn't qualify for a race and completely bash other drivers on the air any time they as much as touch him during a race. When he's on the air it usually turns into an "all about Boris show" where he spends the whole show telling us exactly how much money down to the exact dollar NASCAR or some driver cost him by doing what they did over the weekend. Or it turns into bashing NASCAR for the top 35 rule because Boris is a part-time team and it hurts him, or openly defending his boss Jack Roush any time he's at the center of a controversy like he was at Las Vegas. (I say Jack is his boss because he basically is in everything but name because of the 4-team limit; Boris gets all of his cars, engines, crew people, engineering help, notes, etc. from Jack last I knew.)<BR/><BR/>I just have a hunch he won't be quite as hard on himself for being the guy that was completely at fault for wrecking Joe Nemechek during Saturday's race... then again maybe he'll trash Joe and blame it on him even though it was clearly Boris's fault, who knows.stricklinfan82https://www.blogger.com/profile/01808897974344304657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-8842958075858273502008-07-07T12:58:00.000-04:002008-07-07T12:58:00.000-04:00p.s.

Especially since that 30 minute show NASCAR in a Hurry is ill timed imo.<BR/><BR/>That could be shown Monday night as well in a package with TWIN, and NP repeated. NP and maybe TP should be part of Monday nights show if they could give up repeats of U whips or pinks.<BR/><BR/>Sigh.Sophiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07789033556426951026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-35495663883542862872008-07-07T12:47:00.000-04:002008-07-07T12:47:00.000-04:00These shows should be interesting, I wonder if Bor...These shows should be interesting, I wonder if Boris will speak to the fact that him being in the race it kept out either the 66 or the 96 both of whom were close to the top 35 and are now more behind. I know this is the way Nascar has always been but it kind of bugs me. I also really do not enjoy Boris in this role and if it wasn't for the fact that he was in the race I would say he should not be there. Ray I'm OK with and thankfully Marty is back because he is a hoot. TWIN should be interesting both Mikey and Jimmie got wrecked late and did not finish where they deserved (Jimmie actually finished a head of Mikey because his wreck was on the last lap and Jimmie got by him). I was a 48 fan before I really knew who Chad was and have become an even bigger fan. <BR/>Red, I like the idea of shortening RD (especially since they can't walk the grid anymore) and putting NP one right before but please make it a re-air cause I don't want to wait if I don't have too.Newracefanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16324764517098771035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-35033525221084545482008-07-07T12:30:00.000-04:002008-07-07T12:30:00.000-04:00texasracelady..for some reason I remember only put...texasracelady..<BR/>for some reason I remember only putting an apostrophe after the "s" when a word ends with an "s", as in "Byrnes' role".<BR/>Did that rule change at some point where now an "s" is added after the apostrophe?<BR/><BR/>Oh, and I look forward to hearing Chad talk about the issue where he asked JJ why he kept running a line out of the corner that was allowing other drivers to pass.

I can only devote so much time on weeknights to nascar shows and on monday nights, i have chosen NN. the first two shows of TWIN i watched were so disjointed and confusing that i decided to not tune in again and just sit on my hands when jd would post about the two shows. <BR/><BR/>the only part of TWIN that might make me go back into the fray and watch an show or two is chad knaus. i am gaining more respect for him the more i watch him. he has a strong tv presence, great way of explaining without dumbing down and i sincerely appreciate the fact that he loks directly into the camera when speaking on Nascar Performance.<BR/><BR/>(and can we not get a set time for that show, please? and not on sunday mornings at 7:30? how about cutting the pre-race down by a mere 1/2 hour and putting NP in there so that it actually leads the race day programming? this show has earned its right to a set time when more fans can watch. and even if you're not a gear head, it's done so well that it's a pearl among swine on race day for me!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-11865272441462445502008-07-07T10:20:00.000-04:002008-07-07T10:20:00.000-04:00Had to delete my previous post because I couldn't ...Had to delete my previous post because I couldn't edit.<BR/><BR/>*school-teacher mode*<BR/>"Byrnes roll is to toss-out topics and get out of the way."<BR/><BR/>Tsk, tsk, JD --- it should read<BR/>"Byrnes's role ...."<BR/>*exit school-teacher mode*<BR/><BR/>I'm looking forward to both shows.

ESPN does have a "Classic" channel, which I know a lot of customers do not get, that could show the re-air at a specific time. The constant late starts has to give DVR's fits. DVR recording is not as simple as setting for 2 hours starting at ?<BR/>It's a big enough pain for us DVD or VHS users trying to guess when to start recording. If ESPN would choose to classify the replay as a classic, shift it and have a definite start time, that would be so helpful. (Just a crazy thought)<BR/>As for TWIN, two more try's to get it right or no more for me. Review then Preview, that makes sense. Get done with the past, then hype the future. <BR/>Happy Racin' to all!!!Glennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10695831353283754366noreply@blogger.com
