Darryl and Daytona
 

Everytime Waltrip says we're watching the best race car drivers in the world another big pile-up takes place. Now Mikey's blowin' off how great the leaders are. Owensboro, Ky. became a nice, quiet town once those two blowhards got out of town.

Re: Darryl and Daytona
 

Every time I hear DW talk about Danica I think I upchuck a little. Man he don't shut up about her! I wonder why he didn't point out that she hit that outside wall so hard because she let go of the steering wheel after the first hit:11;!

Re: Darryl and Daytona
 

So who won the race? Someone was saying Jimmie Johnson won earlier this evening. :5:

The more I watch the Daytona 500 the more I wish the real racing season starts.

Re: Darryl and Daytona
 

Congratulations to Junior. From what I saw Harvick caused the big wreck that took out Danica and others and also the wreck at the end. If they were driving Indy cars there isn't a fence in the world that would've kept cars out of the grandstand so it's a good thing they got fenders.

Re: Darryl and Daytona
 

Auston Dillon is another hit and run driver as far as I can tell.

Re: Darryl and Daytona
 

I refuse to watch NASCAR races that FOX televises. Doofuss Darrell & Larry McDumb Azz have ruined any race for me that they announce.:15: And that idiot brother of Darrell's is still there even though he is the leader of the biggest cheaters in NASCAR.:7: Trying to fix the chase and yet they still have Mikie there. Go figure.

Tell that to the 68 people who got injured last year when Kyle Larson hit the fence and deposited his engine and other parts into the stands at the end of the Nationwide race.

Re: Darryl and Daytona
 

Yes, that was terrible. My point is that cars would be flying into the stands on a regular basis if these NASCAR guys were driving open-wheel cars and that these "best drivers in the world" wreck all the time. Even Gordon said after the race that drivers were nuts after the rain delay.

I'm sick of the Fox Crew too. Plus the new scoring takes up 30% of my TV screen :20: What also gets me is, you can be watching another kind of sporting event on TV, and when they have the scrolling sports/race updates at the bottom of the screen, they ALWAYS, have Danica's position listed. Even when she's in last place in a Nationwide race! WHO F'N Cares? Did anyone else notice that, the car that took her out of the race, was a Richard Petty Car? That was the best part of the race. She's had the best equipment money can buy for 3 seasons now, and the clowns on fox keep sticking up for her? Saying she just needs more seat time. I don't get it. She is, and always will be, a back marker at best. NASCAR is a mess, and Fox Sports is doing a great job of pointing it out, with out even knowing it :14:

Re: Darryl and Daytona
 

Did anyone else notice FOX segment on Jimmy Johnson before the race? Listed athletes from many sports and number of championships. Several race drivers including Mario Andretti with 4 championships. So I guess Foyt's seven national championships don't count.

Re: Darryl and Daytona
 

The 20 hour after a Napcar race is up:deadhorse:

Re: Darryl and Daytona
 

I just kinda assume that all commentators are given a loose script of sorts by NASCAR that spells out the things that they are to talk about. AND things that are NOT to talk about. I wonder if they have any freedom at all in that respect.

Re: Darryl and Daytona
 

Ok its cold and snowing so I will kill sometime on this post. The question I have is this Why does Richard Petty need a car from Tony to race Ms. go daddy. Does he not own a race team. What does Ford and all of the people who work at "Petty Racing" think of this? So does he think his team is a second class team (has junk stuff) or is he just a name they use and has no real say at Petty racing. He cant use any of his own cars to race her. Yes I know this will never happen. Just a different spin on this story

I think Tony just has a "Special" car for Richard to use........;)

I watch it very little but whenever there is a Fox NASCAR Broadcast I just mute it. I can't take hearing Tweedle dee & Tweedle dum's commentary.
I dont know how Mike Joy puts up with it. I bet Hammond and Meyers are glad they're not in the same booth with them.

Hammond was ole DW's crew chief so he had to listen to him all the time. Mike Joy has to be frustrated dealing with those two idiots.

Re: Darryl and Daytona
 

DW in the 1st Duel from lap 16-13 talked about the teams that took 4 tires made a huge mistake, they were to far behind to catch up. On lap 5 when they caught up and were drafting by he said " there was no doubt in my mind they would catch them"! I would have had a lot of respect for a comment about boy was I wrong vs just making noise!! Unlike most of you I actually liked the Fox crew at 1st, I enjoyed their enthusiasm and passion for a sport, but now, to get my NASCAR nap in I have to turn off the volume!!:deadhorse:

MIKE !!
Please quit sugar-coating your feelings about Fox broadcasts of NASCRAP events. :8: :5:;) :3: :D :9: :18:

Mike Joy said that "rookie Reed Sorenson is involved" when Larson got spun at the end....they are rubbing off on him too.

Re: Darryl and Daytona
 

For those of you complaining about the race and the drivers why did you turn it on in the first place, you could have watched reruns of Petticoat Junction.

For me it's all about racing weather it's go-karts, sprints or Nascar.

I just wonder how lil Mikey Waltrip brings any credibility to the Fox telecast of NASCRAP with the baggage of being the biggest cheater in the history of the sport? I would have thought that trying to fix races would get you tossed. Obviously NASCAR not only condones cheaters but rewards them as well by approving them for lucrative commentators jobs. What does that tell you about their integrity?

Re: Darryl and Daytona
 

At least when I watch the real "Three Stooges" on METV it is entertaining!
