That's my point...those two really are bad about the safety of others. I've seen Stewart actually wreck someone and I was shocked no fines were given to him. He either can't drive, or he wants everyone afraid of him.

For as much as NASCAR likes to complain about it, I think they like it that way. NASCAR has become bigger than any other sport other than Football. WHich is funny cause when someone talks about the 4 "major" sports, they talk about football, baseball, basketball and hockey. NASCAR is bigger than baseball, basketball and hockey combined.

i'm not sure i can 100% agree with you. when you say "bigger", are you implying "more popular"? if so then i would agree nascar is bigger then hockey. nascar is fairly close to pro basketball but definately moving ahead. baseball, i would say, is still bigger then nascar though. nascar is definately gaining ground in it's popularity, there is just still to many people out there that love baseball, plus baseball gets more exposure on espn and other sports stations.

Those weren't my opinions..it was an article either ESPN did or SI. (Can't remember which one). The only sport bigger is football.
You talk about exposure...you do realize that EVERY NASCAR event is televised right?

yea but every sport that we're talking about is televised. i'm talking about sports news in general about each sport, like for instance, on espn they have "baseball tonight" or "nfl live" stuff like that. i just don't hear to much about nascar other than the race itself, wereas baseball or football and even basketball news is consistantly dominating the sports channels.

Well we do have NASCAR Now every weeknight at 6:30p on ESPN2, plus NASCAR Now Sunday Mornings and NASCAR Now Sundays at Midnight, not to mention NASCAR Coundtown-our prerace show.

But if you don't know about it, obviously we're not doing our job right
