Love Juan, watching qaulifying today at the Glen gave a lot of notoriety to the sport of nascar and how much drivers who cross over and get the chance to run with the Mark Martins respect the leauge. I think this aspect is also going to continue to grow as we see nascar take on more drivers from a wider variety of seriest as opposed to just some of the national ones.

and espn blows, when the first started picking nascar up a couple years back and started to spread commercials and segments about the sports all throughout their airways is like watching JR. try to succeed; jesus just take a breath, we want you to have fun just as much as we want you to win. Just as we want to watch nascar broadcast by people who enjoy it, not people trying to f'n sell it.

Look, I am a huge fan of NASCAR. Have been for many, many years. I do realize that it can drag on a and be boring at some times. But this whole deal of trying to put drama into every aspect of the sport is getting rediculous over the past few years. This interview with JPM is definatly an example of that. I like how he shut that mouthbreather down though. Also enough with talking about double file restarts. We get it. Hell NASCAR should have implimented that a long time ago. Enough griping though. I think Jpm is in line to grab two maybe even three victories before this season is over.

*sighs* Remember when ESPN's coverage of NASCAR used to be decent back in the Bob Jenkins/Benny Parsons days? God that network has fallen apart over the years in its attempt to be overally commercial and hip.

Anyone else notice the inordinate amount of commercials on ESPN when watching a NASCAR race? It is painfully obvious that ESPN is completely clueless when it comes to race coverage. They make it such a commercial event that fans sit back and think to themselves, "What is the goal here, to coverage a race or to pretend to cover a race in between commercial events?" NASCAR, unfortunately, didn't realize that ESPN would abscond their sport. However long NASCAR's contract with ESPN is represents years to lost interest in the sport. Thanks, ESPN!

Go JPM give him a good car, and he would get only better!

I'm with Smoke on this one, can't stand ESPN in NASCAR. ESPN is always screwing things up, I'm glad we didn't have to see the stupid valve braking off animation when Jimmy Johnson was having problems. Have you noticed that Dr. Punch talks like he's a highlight reel? I find it difficult to listen to for an entire race.

I'm quickly becoming a fan of Juan. I was interested when he came to NASCAR, and now he's finally starting to show some results.

And that's why JPM is awesome.

I was able to watch from work, thanks to my Sling Box. I lol'ed when that happened. JPM was quick to correct!

Didn't one of the reporters do something similar to Smoke last season and Smoke politely bitch slapped him on air?
