T-Mez is an adult, he can handle any repercussions. I totally disagree with her taking the mic away. No pit reporter would ever stop a driver's rant in the upper echelons of racing. The whole place was waiting to hear what he had to say, but she cut him off? She could have cut off Buddy who talked for 10 minutes, but didn't really say much of anything. |

You never give up the microphone. That's the point. She was correct to hold on to it.

It made me nervous when i heard Daison Pursley was going to strap back in and gas it. Talk about getting hurt, hokie smokes. Not categorizing that accident as dirty, but man you go for one hell of a ride in a midget.

I'm not sure that I am on the same wavelengths as most of you guys with the midget deal. When I see someone make an overly aggressive move it doesn't always seem to be the young kids, I think you see some of the veterans do it too. I do agree that when the season started there were a lot of avoidable incidents but as the year has gone on and the rookies have gotten more comfortable I see less and less nasty moves. I was watching on Flo so I didn't get to see any of Cannon's dust-ups this weekend so I will not comment on that, but most of the accidents I have been seeing lately either have something to do with the cars taking a bounce or with someone switching lanes and coming down the track.
I like T-mezz and I love Tmezz TV on youtube, but you can't preach "Slide or Die" in every interview and then be upset when you get taken out by a slide to die for. JMO |

I think everyone wants close racing. These drivers are on the ragged edge lap after lap. I did not see this incident but, saw a lot more action that wasn't dirty. When you have a field that are that close, things will happen. The guys at the back are pretty close to as fast as the leaders. TMez was great coming thru the pack. I went to school for broadcasting. Rule number 1 is never give anyone the microphone.

That’s all well and good, but you don’t cut him off. You let the person being interviewed finish the rant. The only reason to cut them off is profanities… And even that is questionable on an online broadcast. But i’ll go check my old broadcast school text books just to be sure. 🙄

My favorite was when they were pushing McIntosh off the track after his final wreck. You could see left front end damage. Cannonball was gesturing in the car for probably a hook. I think the push vehicle driver said to himself "you're done for the night son".
