Hmmmmm.

 

[NASSCAR]We are in quite a predicament here and we aren't quite sure how to proceed. Our drivers don't want to run together and crash. This is understandable but here lies the problem: Our FANS - most of which are cheap-beer swilling low-low middle class imbeciles - love carnage. That is why they watch. Sure we could make it safe for our drivers but then the fans would stop coming out - it is a lose-lose situation. At least drivers are expendible and really if it is their time to go then god is gonna take them no matter what we do to protect them.[/NASSCAR]

 

Rome is not made of the marble in the senate, but of the sand in the colloseum. And it is the blood spilt upon the sand in the colloseum that the mob that is Rome comes to watch

Mike Helton would never go to Rome - the Italians don't like NASSCAR . . .

 

What are the drivers mad about? Didn't they read the script before they showed up to "race"?!?!??

 

Not that I follow NASCAR all that closely, but it seems like this happens EVERY year. NASCAR puts on a restrictor plate "parade" (not a race), and a bunch of drivers get upset about it. It's all part of the show folks...

Aaahahahahaha I love it! Check out Labonte's quote:

"You ride around for a long time and wait until the end"

Even the drivers know how boring ASSCAR is!

 

I can personally vouch for that.

 

Me too . . .
