First let me say I’m not a NASCAR fan. And I’m certainly not a Dale Jr. fan. I do watch the races, but it’s on the garage TV while I’m working on my car. It’s racing; it’s still better than most of what’s on TV on a Sunday afternoon.
But if you think NASCAR rigged it so Dale Jr. could win the pole, well, that’s just ridicules. And it’s even more ridicules to think that they could rig it for him to win. But rather then start a big debate, just think about this. Picture them telling Tony Stewart, “Ok, we’re going to let Dale win today.” Do you really think he would swallow that?
Or for that matter, tell every one of the other 42 drivers that and get them to agree to it. Heck, I’ve never seen two drivers agree on what stagger to run, let alone who to let win a race!
