You have to admit that you did learn things with McReynolds and DW. McReynolds told you where the rear end was located and DW talked about how Danica taught the drivers about bringing their arms up to their chests when wrecking but then later on in the broadcast mentioned that the drivers have been that for several years. Very educational commentors, thank goodness for the mute button.

'DW the worst announcer of all time' I have listened to race track announcers, TV announcers and radio announcers since hector was a pup and DW is well prepared, full of useful knowledge, can explain the nuances of drivers and cars, has energy in his voice, creates an enthusiasm of viewers with his rapid fire 'silliness' and can tell listeners / viewers what its really all about out there because he was a driver. I have yet to hear a sprint car, midget or Indy car announcer who has that complete of a package when they announce. Sprint car and midget racing needs a DW type to build that same hype and following and NASCAR should be thankful they have people like DW beating the drums for them.

How many people caught the comment when the jet dryer was fully on fire, "if the real wheels wern't burnt up, maybe someone could get in the truck and drive it off of the track"
That one made my head spin almost as much as the Jimmy/Danica comment. |

Id rather listen to Johnny Gibson all day than dink wad DW. Had to work when duels were on so watched em on nascar.com had a lil chat box thing where all the nascar fans loved watching it on there, cuz all they could hear was engines and no DW. Also amazes me when they go to Danicas on car cam when shes 60 laps down and all by her self. They dont even do that if it was Gordon,Johnson, JR Stewart etc.

The part that irks me, is when any of the announcers make the claim that NASCAR's drivers are the best in the world. Sorry, but when I watch open wheeled race cars running their hearts out on a bumpy, slick, potholed dirt track track, I would call ALL of them the best drivers in the world. Naturally, some of the NASCAR drivers did start, and occassionally, still drive on the dirt, and are the exception.
