Subject: The Indy 500

Written By: Indy Gent on 05/26/02 at 00:00 a.m.

Who do you think will win the race? Or a better question would be if anyone knows any of the drivers other than Little Al, Arie Lyendiyk, or Eddie Cheever? Or does anyone knows who Ashley Judd's husband is? (Hint: He drives in tomorrow's race) ;D

I don't watch much anymore since the big brew ha-ha happened a few years ago and all the bug names left.  I also wasn't too thrilled when Boby Unser was given the victory over Mario Andretti back in 1981.  I never cared much for the Unsers....I also like Michael Andretti better than "Little Al".....even though the Insers raced a lot at the Pikes Peak Hill Climb.  I also thought Scott Goodyear was robbed a few years ago >:(

car racing has never really appealed to me...what's fun about watching people drive around in a dirty circle for hours on end?  maybe driving in it would be fun, but watching it is kinda boring to me.

Well, I was a good race, but I neither saw of heard it since I've lost interest in open-wheel racing. Helio Castroneves made a lot of dough for someone who jumps on fences like the Green Bay Packers.  ;D
Did you feel Paul Tracy was robbed RnR (or anyone)?

yeah I do...but nowadays I don't care about it much anymore.  My enthusiasm went out the window about 5 years ago... :(

Yep, just about the same time I gave up on it too.
And I really don't care if War Emblem wins the Triple Crown either. It's a great accomplishment, but nobody's going to remember it the same as when Affirmed or Seattle Slew won the three horse races. And besides horse racing has become unethical and cruel as far as the treatment of the ponies, just like in dog racing. >:(
