“A few good ol’ boys (and not to mention the occasional California prettyboy).

This is how we are described by Rob Sylvester in a NBC sports website

Is NASCAR really just a bunch of rednecks going fast and turning left for hours on end?

Look, Ive never been much for NASCAR, mainly because if I wanted to watch teams of rednecks expel gas while going in circles for hours, Id turn on FOX News, said Mr. Sylvester in an article about a renewed interest in putting a NASCAR track in New York City.

Mr. Sylvester even discounted the economic viability of a track in New York. He openly doubted whether race fans would bother attending races there; despite the fact that other tracks in the Northeast like Pocono and New Hampshire have no problems selling tickets.

The article by Mr. Sylvester went on to describe NASCAR drivers as a few good ol boys (and not to mention the occasional California prettyboy). And his idea of a typical race fan who might visit New York to attend the race is a tourist from the Red State region.

What is this characters problem,does he live in a container with no outside input??

If we down in the red zone as he describes us are so unruly and so back woodsey then maybe he needs to go back in that envelope he lives in ,maybe out on that "Long Island" place they call paradise. Not everyone from up north are so not connected but he is way out on a limb here I think---what do you think????

He sounds like a typical "Elitist" and your right Johnny his world (container)is the only place there is anything of importance. The rest of the country is just fly over territory. But heres the good news, fly over territory is where the best parts of Americaare.

Hopefully this what ever he calls himself has never attended a race. Yes there are some red necks there . But look at the other professional sports they to have their red necks too: who would sit out in 20 degree weather without a shirt to watch football or be so ashamed of their team that they have to paint their face to go to a ball game. How many race fans have run out on the field of play to hit a nascar offical or driver.Why did nascar move the banquet from new york to Vegas?It might be the mentality of assholes like this Sylvester cat named above. But that is only my observation...LOL

Wow! This one begs for a Legendtorial. May yet get to do that one but I'll have to cool down a little bit. I personally think there are few things more disgusting than someone like this guy who has NO clue about the subject he seeks to discuss. He goes off on some rant with no substance and proves he is nothing more than the typical book-educated, common sense deficient idot. There is just something inside me that makes it impossible for me to think about living in a city like New York with the likes of people who dwell there. People who watch and listen as a women is being raped and killed and do nothing. We rednecks don't behave like that. Ok, that'sw enough for tonight. I don't want to get on the rant now.

Got to love it....A big city politcal hack. That is the problem with leftist's, their mental illness blinds them from clear thinking.

We know that Sylvester is not relavent as the current congress has about two weeks to do more damage to this country. His ideaology defines Capitol Hill's agenda of class warfare and division.
