I'm amazed by the amount of @$$ kissing of certain announcers done by keyboard cowboys, while other guys, many of whom are well qualified, do their homework and aren't over the top screamers, get...
I think it's outstanding. I can't understand why shows drag out when its not necessary. Other than weather, a delay for an accident, or other such circumstances there is no reason for any show to...

Racing was very good. I love Eldora. And yes, I know its out in the middle of nowhere, but I still find it ridiculous they can't end the Four Crown program before midnite. The do a good job of...
