Re: Big Blue NASCAR 2013 Racin'!!!! - teejay - 05-19-2013
Some thoughts on the race :
1. They keep changing the format and I guess the 4 race / average finish deal was OK , but I still like reversing the order somewhat , like they used to , after each segment .
2. Had to laugh when Danica was chosen ....NO chance in this type of racing ...OK in plate races . I'm wondering how she will fare on the 2 road course events ?
3. Chad Knaus shows he's the best set up man around ....just kept improving the 48 all night and made the right calls .

Oh Geeze - That Stinks!!! I thought since you're in NC all cable companies would carry all the racing outlet channels....
Well - anyway - Yes, your "pick" Jimmy Johnson won!
Congrats!!!

Mikey I'm not a big TV fan so I have the stripped down package for $19.99 a month, if I want the $29.99 package I could get most of the races and if I want the $39.99 packageI could get all the races. I'm not paying the extra $$$ to get races that really aren't all that exciting to watch. To be honest I usually watch the first few laps and the last few laps but in between I'm doing something else and if I hear they have a caution I watch the replay then go back to doing whatever I was doing.
T will Danica be modeling my winnings???????
Re: Big Blue NASCAR 2013 Racin'!!!! - teejay - 05-19-2013
I'm about the same as you Mike , so maybe I should reduce the package deal I have ....then again , they probably have it integrated with the hockey broadcast , and I wouldn't want to lose that

Re: Big Blue NASCAR 2013 Racin'!!!! - ngauger - 05-19-2013
Which brings up an frustrating story:
We have everything available, except for pay channels. The package below what we have, would take away 2 channels that my wife watches and 1 channel that i watch
So we're stuck with this level unless we want to miss some of our shows
Re: Big Blue NASCAR 2013 Racin'!!!! - teejay - 05-24-2013
Everyone got their new rosters set ??? If you need the starting lineup , you might have to Google ....Nascar site seems to have lots of useless info and very late on the latest race lineup .

Well - enough of this "late" night racing!! We're heading to my home track Dover for the FedEx 400 Benefiting Autism Speaks... on Sunday afternoon... The first race in June!!!!
Remember - if you want to see your overall positions, you have to go look at the ESPN league page - these are only the positions for this week.
Re: Big Blue NASCAR 2013 Racin'!!!! - teejay - 05-28-2013
Kinda felt bad for Stenhouse .....wipes out both he AND his main squeeze on the track ...probably had to sleep on the couch that night .
Think I'll stand pat with my new roster this week ....if the 2 hadn't messed up I might have had a 200 pointer ...coulda-woulda-shoulda
