NASCAR and FOX
#1
Well, I'm watching the race at Dover that is fixin to start. Did I hear right? This race is the final race for 07 on FOX? Is NASCAR going to ESPN or something? Just curious..

Yes, for the next few years FOX will carry the first 1/4 of the schedule, then TNT will cover the middle 6 races starting with Pocono next week and ESPN/ABC will cover the remaining races. Not entirely sure, but I think all 10 Chase races will be on ABC. TNT would not be bad if they had kept Allen Bestwick in the booth as play-by-play. He is now with ESPN as a pit reporter. Will be interesting to see who TNT has working the pits since they lost a bunch of guys. Count on Marty Snider being in the pits with Matt Yocum(both are real good) with that idiot Bill Weber doing play-by-play alongside Wally( I think I know what I'm talking about) Dallenbach and Kyle Petty.

Ok. Well, I heard one of the guys talking about it, and it kinda threw me off. Didnt know if I heard it right, or not. That's interesting that they are doing that.

Der're speakin the Engush language, it's that Southeast accent that throws ya off. :P Bill Weber is a joke, yeah you can understand him but he is a moron. Lot of times, people would rather not understand him. Like calling Richmond, Bristol several times during last year's fall race. Did it again the following week in New Hampshire. Called New Hampshire another track(can't remember what it was) several times while getting the drivers confused. Said Tony Stewart was leading when it was Jeff Burton and had been Jeff Burton for about 20 laps. But he kept on saying it was Tony.
