Play Rattles From the Catch Can II: Win The Blount Report

March 11, 2009

NASCAR picked a lousy week to take off. At least for me. I’m pretty sure the teams aren’t having any problem with it. But talking and writing and complaining about the Kingdom of France helps me keep my mind off of more serious issues. It can get a bit depressing out here in the world lately.

So I decided it was time for another quiz. A second, Rattles from the Catch Can quiz to be more descriptive. You can play it right here.

If you do play, leave your email address when you’re finished and we’ll put your name in the hat - or I guess the Catch Can would be more appropriate - and the winner will get a copy of Terry Blount’s new book, “The Blount Report”.  Terry was a guest ON PIT ROW a couple weeks ago. The book is his take on the most underrated and overrated drivers, tracks, races and rules in NASCAR. I’ve read it. It will get your blood pumping, for sure.

2008 OPeR Award: Worst NASCAR Network

December 22, 2008

Can you say “slam dunk”? Although NASCAR’s media contract negotiation team should get an assist on this one - ABC/ESPN - the network that brought NASCAR fans, “America’s Funniest Home Videos” in place of the end of one of the final Chase to the Sprint Cup races, is the hands down winner of this year’s “Doh!” OPeR.

What are the chances that one of the NFL’s networks will preempt the fourth quarter of the NFC Championship game?

Uh, zero. Zero is the answer.
