    After the usual (and tired) hype, the big all star race came off as an ill-conceived testament to excess. Boring for sure, but that wasn't surprising. BTW, it is exponentially more boring in person as I found out a few years ago when I was given a "gift" of two tickets to the thing.

    Nothing screams louder than all of the empty seats and those are hard to hide with the TV coverage, although it is obvious that they try to minimize viewing angles that illustrate the decline in attendance.

    When you hang your promotional hat on guy who isn't a winner just because of his last name, you have sold out the sport.

    The non-competitive 10 lap finish only highlighted how grating Larry McReynolds whiny accent is and how deep the trouble is for NASCAR.
