This is absolutely the dumbest thing I've ever heard anyone who isn't President say.
I'm weird in that I can watch NASCAR without wanting to blow my brains out. Fast cars are fun, and cool. I'll watch that on TV, whether it's in a movie, at TV show, or a big oval.
It's definitely NOT a sport.
It's not.
I mean it.
No way.
I'm sure it's hot in the car. It's hot in my car.
Hundreds of cars packed bumper-to-bumper with no turn signals, everyone's driving like a maniac?
That's Dallas traffic. And I have to pay for my car if it gets bumped.
And to say that NASCAR is more physically punishing than hockey, football, baseball, basketball, lacrosse, soccer, rugby, cricket, softball, air hockey, paintball, ultimate frisbee, field hockey, croquet, polo, water polo, marco polo, wrestling, women's collegiate basketball, women's professional basketball, YMCA youth league basketball and the Pro Bowl ...
Well that's just insulting.
In short, NASCAR is just like cheerleading.
If you put it on TV, I'll watch it. But it's never going to be a sport.
NEVER.
ever.
