You said you would...Well, I beg to differ with you. You said you wouldn't pay for a sports channel and I said I'm sure you had your reasons and that's your business. You also said the rest of us shouldn't pay for it either and, although you're entitled to your opinion, that's NOT your business. And, finally, I don't work for a cable company. I'm just dealing with the realities of NASCAR and television as it exists in the 21st century.WhatAmIMissinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01137687434831985282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24138427.post-79245358111959700862014-08-28T15:13:57.054-04:002014-08-28T15:13:57.054-04:00I am not trying to do a one-man assault on any cab...I am not trying to do a one-man assault on any cable industry.

Will just have to watch highlights online. Back to good ole MRN and PRN for most of next year.

Go back to the full-season format and the Latford point system with a 100-point bonus for each win and 80-point bonus for most laps led each race - make the races the focus, not the points race. <br /><br />As far as the schedule itself, get rid of the All-Star Race so Atlanta or another track can get a second date back.Monkeesfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14522953722006761283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24138427.post-76967835965950593292014-08-27T09:21:13.165-04:002014-08-27T09:21:13.165-04:00A lot of fans will be doing cookouts and watching ...A lot of fans will be doing cookouts and watching fireworks on the 4th of July.
