How is it that this AMATEUR league sport can get this kinda sponsor pay out with NO TV or Radio endorsement and NHRA sportsman drag racing AND local combo races and bracket stuff pays $250.00 to WIN?
Keep in mind these guys have a $100.00 bat and a $150.00 glove to buy maybe a $50.00 pair of shoes and pay $30.00 to enter the tournament and $60.00 for a season membership...(Such a HUGE investment)
Where are we doing this wrong?????
P.S. I feel that Drag racing HAS to be more exciting than this ( Dont Hate I just dont like stick and ball sports)
