NASCAR Interviews

[BMCS J Lucas]

I posted this on Fred's also.

I've often wondered what it would be like if other sport figures gave interviews like Nascar drivers did. I think it would go something like this:

Berman: "So what's it like winning the Super Bowl, Eli?
Eli Manning: "Well, it's great. These Reebok shoes have given me the confidence to be able to throw the Wilson football to Randy. I took some hits, but the Riddell helmet allowed me to stay in the game."


Peter Costas: "So Tiger, you won another Dubai Classic. What was the difference between this one and the last?"
Tiger: "I tell you what Peter, that Nike ball just flew better. I was able to maintaine my balance in my Nike shoes and without the strong performance of these Nike clubs, I wouldn't be talking to you today. The Odessy putter was right on all day. Lear-Jet got me hear comfortably so I could be ready to go, and those Goodyear tires performed great getting us stopped on the slick runway."


Peter Gammons: "Barry, you've surpassed Hank Aaron. What do you have to say?
Barry Bonds: "Well, Peter. I just went out there and did what I always do. The Riddell bat didn't let me down. It was a little hazy tonight but these Bausch and Lomb contacts allowed me to see the Wilson ball tonight, so I was able to get these Balco arms around quickly and make some good contact."


Can you hear how stupid that sounds? Hey NASCAR! The only people who watch you know what kind of car you drive, who your sponsors are, and what underwear you wear. Leave it out of the interviews and just answer the questions!

Yes, it does sound silly, but the drivers have to talk about their sponsors during post race interviews. If not, they would lose the $$$ it takes to field a car. After all, what would Michael Waltrip talk about if he couldn't talk about his sponsors? :)

Left turns?

I guess it puzzles me that no other sport or player has to mention who makes their shoes, or thier clubs to get sponsor money.

So let me see if I have this straight. Gordon has DuPont plastered all over his car, his fire suite and hat, but still has to mention it by name or he doesn't get the money? Ohhh, now I get it! How stupid of me. NASCAR fans can't read, so they have to be told who the sponsons are. Now it all makes sense. ;) ;)

That's just how the game is played.
