Taking Points Away...

Pe2 19 March 2005 04:06:33
 Ok-

I'm not a Jimmie Johnson fan, but I think NASCAR ought re-evaluate its
thinking on "taking away points". We're the ONLY sport that takes away
points.

I agree, cheating is cheating, but NASCAR-just FINE the heck out of
them-don't take away the points!

A Jr. 8 fan-

We're the only sport that takes away points after the event has ended.

If NASCAR is truly concerned with it tarnishing their image (what IS
NASCAR's image?), suspension would be a much better deterrent.

 i am a big johnson fan, but i agree with u that they should fine the crap
out of them and don't touch the points. last yr. dale jr. was fined and
points taken away for saying unoffensive curse words as far as i was
concerned. i only think harvicks chief shouldn't have admitted he would
cheat again if he could. he needs to keep his mouth shut.

I'm surprised no one has asked for GIF's yet.

 We're the only sport that uses points to crown a champion. The others have
playoffs.

You must not have gotten the memo. NASCAR has playoffs now, since
simply racing for a chapionship has not brought enough attention span
lacking fans into the sport.

There are many aspects of motorsports that differentiate it from the
"ball bunch".
One of the biggest, imo, is the level of competition. In auto racing,
you need to beat every other team in the "league" in order to be
credited with just one win.

I concur. Like when Junior admitted causing a caution, they need to shut
up when they're walking in the grey areas.
