From the 50 laps I was able to watch, I wasn't impressed with
Bristol. It looked the same as the old Bristol, where there isn't any passing
and the race is boring. Yes there was the Tony Stewart incident, but other than
that it was just your normal racing incidents.
As I mentioned
before, I was only able to watch the last 50 laps of the race, because I live
in the Detroit market, which blacked out the NASCAR race because of the NFL
Preseason game. Instead, I had to watch the thugs of the Detroit Lions. I was
pissed off, especially because the race was not on ESPN 3 and there was not any
Race Buddy coverage.

My question to ABC
and ESPN, "Why do this to us die hard NASCAR fans?" We are in the
middle of the Race to the Chase, and ESPN decides to hand the race over to
ABC when they know that the NFL is in the Preseason. It’s like blacking out
week 17 of the NFL for Figure Skating. It should be embarrassing for
ESPN, and ABC's affiliates.
I sent a very
angry E-mail to our ABC affiliate and AT&T for not having the second
most watched sport in the US, instead having fourth string NFL rejects from
Grand Valley state playing in a meaningless touch football game. It made me and
a lot of Detroiters very angry, as seeing in the ESPN game-cast of
the race. My advice to ESPN, look at the NFL preseason schedule before giving
the Sprint Cup race to ABC.
