That sums it up. Retired people have experience. They're also old and out of date. The idea that they are suitable to be broadcasters is ludicrous.
I know nothing about football, baseball or basketball but from watching the network "jack of all trades" anchors cover racing, I 've learned they know nothing about anything. They really have no credibility in covering racing.
I don't really watch IRL too often but I'm already sick of the "that was fun", "The fans were really cool at the fan forum Q & A I did! Thanks!" quotes from Danica. Also the stomping her feet walk down pit road is a little tired.
Green race cars are bad luck. We'll see it in the Danica 300 today and the 500 with Mark Martin tomorrow.
