However, a 25% drop in ratings for Talladega -- <b><i>Talladega</i></b> for crying out loud -- is <i>screaming</i> for some big changes during the off-season both in the TV world we discuss here as well as with the on-track product in general. I just hope that it does not take three years for ESPN to pull the trigger like they did on moving Dr. Punch or I fear that our beloved sport is the one that is going to have "The Big One."KoHoSohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00457687879505057220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-8424739263624126842010-11-04T19:12:04.020-04:002010-11-04T19:12:04.020-04:00JD, watching the beginning of Hub and there's ...JD, watching the beginning of Hub and there's Danielle talking about if this scenario happens or that scenario happens with the 3 drivers that could possibly win the chase and it's so far fetched.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist. Some of us complain but the great majority just go elsewhere. I think using Krista and some other lesser known talents is a good idea. We need some people who can tell us what is happening without becoming the story themselves. The formerly "famous" talking heads always make themselves the story at the expense of the event they are covering or participating in.OSBORNKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06265276174788619591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-69811265606860440152010-11-04T12:05:18.124-04:002010-11-04T12:05:18.124-04:00I can't believe SPEED is pre-empting Nationwid...I can't believe SPEED is pre-empting Nationwide qualifying for 'Race in 60', 'Trackside' and 'Nascar Hot Wired'.

I wish they'd work out the bugs so we can all have the live streaming option - since listening to the races on TV has become such a wasteland. I didn't really expect ESPN to make any changes - at least not before the end of the season. NASCAR needs to make some changes, too, because they are bleeding fans.<br /><br />Hooray for Schrader!
