Roger K Fain,

You are correct, almost. First the NFL should change the overtime rule, it just sucks. Kansas City Tiebreaker is way more enjoyable.

The NBA needs to understand what a foul and palming the ball, along with traveling mean, and enforce it. That and an automatic ejection for falling on the floor in the "act" of being fouled.

MLB needs to call the real actual strike zone, armpits to knees over the plate, not where they are standing, and while we are at it how about that ridiculous "in the area of" when tagging a base in a double play. About allowing a batter four strikes, no way, how about two strikes and three balls to shorten the boring part.

And as far as worst light vs first redlight, don't care, but before someone makes a stand on what they believe, they first should put themselves in the same position as both views are from different perspectives. Slow cars vs Fast cars.

Ron Ortiz
U/SA don't red light, don't red light, don't red light, ........................damn it.

So dumb to even continue this but I can't help it.
It's so simple. Once the first car fouls, THERE IS NO RACE from that point on. The red lighter has been ELIMINATED and the race is OVER. What the second driver does after that is of no consequence because the round is already over. Unless foul worse than a red light occurs. It's a time trial, test n tune pass, a chance to win the Perfectly Strange award, if they still have that, wave to you friends whatever.
So take that last beating you dead horse......

Guess again oh Edddddd, it's now 64.44% to 35.55%, so your count is getting reeled in...haha. I don't really care how this turns out, but I take great pride in the thoughts of someone who actually thought a Gremlin outsold a Cavalier, now that's LMAO FUNNY!!!

I just checked, and per your stats, and my checks as well it appears that the Chevy Cavalier sold more cars in its first 4yrs of production (over 1.1mil.), than your Gremlin sold in 9yrs...REALLY? You're too close to that John Bonehead (Boehner) dude, you really need a vacation...maybe some warm Az. sun could do you some good, but bring your sunscreen, because one orangeman is enough...lol

Oh, and per the guy who spoke of trying the fast side of handicap racing, I would if I had the bucks...trust me...

So far 68% to 31%.
I'd rather be from the land of hope and change, than be from the land of the Charles Dickens novel "A Christmas Carol", which is where we will be headed if your "ORANGEMAN", and his afraid to reveal who "AMERICANS FOR PROSPERITY" supporter really is, plus his corporation/mega-rich/fear mongering/deception creating cronies have their way.....he best stay away from Wisconsin though, because several recalls are underway, and they could take place in just two months...heck I'll have a race under my belt by then...at our level even...imagine that. Question is, will I be supporting the enhanced NHRA at the national level, or what??? I'll tell you one thing Ed, I'll certainly be traveling more miles than you will....come to think of it Ed, have you traveled to ONE RACE that was more than 300 miles away from Old Bridge? Given you want to slight me on the minimal amount of races I've gone to, but I'll tell you this, the mileage I traveled to the three races I went to last year, could've been farther than you went throughout your whole 2010 season? I'm shocked that you actually went beyond 300 miles (one way), to attend a race...that approx. 526 you traveled from your town to Norwalk must've been rough huh Ed? You put in a season that I'd be glad to have run, but it must be nice to have gone to all of those races and not have to tow much more than 126 miles (one way to the remainder of them). No I'm not complaining, because I've seen the weather you have to deal with, and I'll take me sunshine and nearly 80 degrees any day over what you've gotten (are about to get again)! Sunshine isn't hard to shovel...where's my Corona though.....

Oh, and per the guy who spoke of trying

Every post you make shows you for the petty,childish numb nuts that you are.You're the
little kid that has to get in the last word.
Your posts are bordering on the point of you being shown to fit into the category of whiny bitch.You worry about others who in a better
position than you.Stop being a victim and learn to live in the reality of where you are in life.

The poll,which you think would change from the original one,still shows about a 65% to 35% split for keeping the system as is.
Besides the only thing you've been racing since you've been on here is your mouth.
Bring your last cute post and let's be over with it.

rules in all sports change ,Cut down the time football teams spend in huddles. Limit catchers’ endless visits to the pitcher’s mound.They took the red line out in hockey after 70 years to make the game better to play.maybe it's time for a change in our sport to make it better.

You think hockey is better now?How long have you been watching it?
I go back into the time of the 6 team league.Started going to games in MSG in 1955.
These guys today would be eaten for breakfast by the 6 team league guys.
But hey,I respect your opinion,you don't drag meaningless bull$hit and childish
drivel into it the conversation.

And you are the grouchy old man that lives inside of this site who lives to get his last word in to anyone dares to have a different opinion.

You are the guy people imagine when they picture the cliche old guy yelling 'you damn kids get off my lawn.'
