Tonight’s Nashville: Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

nashville_sountrack_album__cover265x265mcSigh. I watched Nashville tonight. Rayna is getting divorced. Deacon had a birthday and no one would allow him to spend the evening with ‘Ole Yeller’ on VHS. What’s a guy gotta do to do what he wants on his birthday?

Okay, Rayna’s kids are afraid of being in a giant SUV with camera flashes going off? I guess Rayna’s never been famous since she was cognizant. Rayna’s been cheated on by a lesser man. She kind of loved him, but really loved Deacon. So what’s the big deal? Continue reading “Tonight’s Nashville: Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww”

2013 NASCAR Sprint Cup Race One Daytona

06Vce2ocNZgds_575x459cErin Andrews, let’s don’t and say we did. She was ridiculous on pit road. 50 Cent seems to be having fun. James Franco seems extremely ‘not-in-the-mood’ for all of this. I wonder if he’s very hung over. He did his interview with Rutledge wearing huge sunglasses though its a cloudy day in Daytona.

I enjoyed the broadcast of the driver introductions, though I wish the camera work would’ve been more smooth and shown all of the drivers better. I love driver introductions.

Danica Patrick leads the field to the green flag. Jeff Gordon leads the first lap. Continue reading “2013 NASCAR Sprint Cup Race One Daytona”

2013 NASCAR Nationwide Series Race 1 Daytona

071yeIVaKycTM_blog_1920x1238cCrazy race with lots of Cup cars in the field! I started watching on a restart with 15 laps to go.
Caution is out with 5 laps to go, Michael Annett hits the wall.

Green, White, checkered restart. Crazy race heading toward the checkered flag turns into a massive crash with Kyle Larson’s car going into the catch fence and losing the front of his car as the engine and a tire becoming embedded in the fence. The other wheel flew over the fence and apparently hit a fan. Also other pieces of the debris hit fans in the grandstands causing assorted injuries.

2013 Duels at Daytona

budweiser_duel_at_daytona_logo_325x217Krista Voda announces that this is the final afternoon Duels at Daytona. Beginning next year the Duels will be night races. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Night races at Daytona are typically BORIN!!! The fact that the most memorable thing from last year’s Daytona races was the exploding jet dryer incident. SAD!!! While that was a sight to behold, a unique occurance, it far exceeded the drama and excitement of the races at Daytona in 2012 (and 2011 and 2010 for that matter). This is not a great idea for these races. Continue reading “2013 Duels at Daytona”

My Ears Are Smiling

mqdefaultI’m watching the 1999 Daytona 500 on EPSN Classic. What a delight! Mike Joy, Ned Jarrett and Buddy Baker are calling the race. Bill Stephens, Ralph Sheheen and Dick Berggren are in the pits. Delightful!!! The race is good, but the call makes it even better.

I’m sitting here wishing, desperately, I could hear this team call the race on Sunday. Continue reading “My Ears Are Smiling”
