GOP Leader: Abortion Is A 'Lifestyle Convenience'
Everyone has a different complaint about ESPN on ABC's coverage of NASCAR, so this one's going to be a bit of a free-for-all. What's your beef?
Is it the way they miss the restarts because they haven't learned what the different colored racing flags mean yet? Let's help them out.
Green means go. When the green flag is waving, the camera should be focused on it and that camera's feed should be transmitted live to the viewers' televisions. Not just some of the times. Every time. No exceptions. The drivers manage to be on the gas when the green flag drops every time. They certainly don't join the restart "in progress." ESPN gets the same head's up. Why should they have such difficulty heeding the "one-to-go" warning?
And how about their on-air talent? Do you just want Rusty Wallace to can it, or what? I cannot be the only one bugged by his uncanny ability to know what is going through every driver's mind at any given moment on the track. Or maybe it's his mastery of the obvious that rubs me the wrong way, like yesterday when Dale Earnhardt Jr. passed teammate Martin Truex Jr. and Rusty said something like "It just goes to show ya how much Junior wants to win this race." How profound. Imagine that ...a driver wanting to win a race.
Don't even get me started on the "fans' reporter," Brad Daugherty, or the obligatory female presence of Suzie Kolber.
If you'd asked me last season, I would have argued there was no way ESPN/ABC could be worse than NBC, but ESPN and their talking heads are certainly giving the peacock a run for the money.
Give me FOX, more Speed on FOX and Krista Voda! Boogity, boogity, boogity, boys (and girls), give us some good coverage!
