Oh, wait, we already KNEW how corrupt and crooked THAT sport was. Even though their rule book is public and everybody on Earth is smarter than the NCAA referees yesterday...they still blew the call and Asheville is still going home. No appeals board, no instant replay, no scoring loops. Just suck it up and go home.<br /><br />Yeah, I'll take what we have, thank you.Dwayne in Memphisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24138427.post-24261788115458171852012-03-15T19:36:57.941-04:002012-03-15T19:36:57.941-04:00I understand DW's point... but doesn't it ...I understand DW's point... but doesn't it already work that way..? If NASCAR catches a team cheating, or with an unapproved part etc. on Saturday or Sunday, NASCAR does issue the ticket right then... then the following Tuesday they issue their penalty.<br />An Appeals Board is just that...an Appeals Board...thats where you go to appeal your penalty...Appeals Boards don't usually issue penalties. <br />The only issue I have with this system is the descriptions or lack there of... that NASCAR gives...NASCAR give a thorough explanation and description, then tell the fans why.."actions detrimental to racing" is just lame... <br />But hey...

Or ask Derrick Rose what he thinks of David Stern for fining him $50k for speaking out against referees. Or the plethora of MLB players suspended by Bud Selig. Or for that matter ask Jim McMahon about wearing headbands and well Pete Rozelle like that.<br /><br />Sorry, DW, but the sanctioning body HAS to be the one that doles out the punishments. Otherwise the authority of that sanctioning body gets undermined. The way we have it now works just fine. You wanna know why? Because the teams are violating NASCAR rules. Since NASCAR makes the rules, then NASCAR gets to impose the penalties when their rules are broken.<br /><br />If I get a ticket in Memphis - THAT governing body issues my penalty. I don't get a ticket from Memphis police then my punishment decided by a court in Little Rock.Dwayne in Memphisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24138427.post-64912319014424384682012-03-15T12:43:41.383-04:002012-03-15T12:43:41.383-04:00DW taking up for his old boss.Where was he for Cli...DW taking up for his old boss.Where was he for Clint Boyer ?<br />Larry KingAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24138427.post-39235770580912252122012-03-15T12:27:56.033-04:002012-03-15T12:27:56.033-04:00WOW...'ole DW is absolutely 100% right!
