Did you see what that guy said about the indy 500 time trials?  that guy with ear lobes so sagging i thought he was wearing ear rings?

he said it shouldnt be televised.  he said if he wants to see fast cars he can look outside his window

what an idiot

first off if your not a race fan you will find any part of racing interesting.  i am sick of non race fans trashing auto racing.  what if some one doesnt like baseball?  is it ok for them to say "oh i dont want to see grown men swat balls and i pay money to applaud" you have to understand the sport which this guy obvilously dont

first off you have to have a favorite driver.  i was waiting for michael andretti to qualify while watching the others go for the pole and yes i watched all 5 hours of qualifying coverage.

bump day will be even more exciting with only 8-10 slots left and 15 cars yet to qualify.  obvilously this guy doesnt know the excitment of qualifying for indy and he thinks because he dont like it no one else does.

i know i probably didnt do too good of a job defending time trials because i am not good with words and am rushing this i will probably post more in a bit...

:o

I\'d rather watch paint dry than watch the indy 500.  Racing like that is simply the most boring sport I can think of.

ill start with baseball

IT IS BORING!

Racing is constant action.

Base ball is soooooooo slow.  

Tell me which is more exciting, cars traveling at 240 mph seperated by inches or watching grown men swat balls?

Plz, the only kind of racing fun to watch is **** like rallys, well anything besides oval racing.  And baseball is fun to watch especially when you play baseball but your to busy watching an indy race knowing that you\'ll never get to drive anything even similar to those cars.

I know how many people go, its the biggest sporting event in the World.  I knew you would pull that out but the difference is being there is a whole hell of a lot better than watching it on tv.  It\'s a lot more exciting and you get a feel for it.

I won\'t be able to watch the Indy 500 even if I wanted to, being that I live in Indy and it isn\'t televised unless you are atleast 70 miles away.  

About baseball being boring, its all a matter of opinion, if you have a favorite team baseball isn\'t boring to watch at all, especially if you like to play baseball.  If you could get in a race car and drive around at 240 mph like you can go outside and play catch, then maybe I\'d like it better.

BTW football is by far the best sport ever.  Oh and PTI rules.
I have no signature...I rule.

the only thing i dont like about 500 races

is the only thing exciting is when a crash happens and i dont like watching the life of someone flash before me for a few moments of wow

also the fact of the matter is that those guys are inchs away from each other all the time so its damn near repetitive lap after lap

no i dont watch racing for the crashes (after seeing some of the bad ones you will hope they dont happen)


actually race car fans like the side by side racing constantly
