Rooting for Bubba Wallace & His Black Lives Matter #43 Car in NASCAR Race at Martinsville

Please please please do live commentary for the next sporting event. I will donate $10 to your patreon. Unstuckers only invited obv.

You mean like an audio broadcast? Or like this thread?

I would take this thread, but if you talk like you write, audio broadcast all the way

Haha you took me down a bit of a rabbit hole listening back to some of my old radio work that I still have saved. I only have a small clip that’s easy to share, since it’s on IG:

Don’t think I could do anything justice on here, cause it wouldn’t be worth the prep time I’d have to put in to just do it for fun for a small group - especially for NASCAR. Would be kind of funny to do one for this audience, though, dropping facts about how many Confederate monuments had recently been destroyed in each driver’s hometown, and such.

That’s a pretty great call.

It’s hard for me to get into NASCAR without having a driver. I could get behind Bubba Wallace, but he’s a mid-pack guy so it’s not all that interesting following him.

My interest pretty much died with Tony Stewart. I was a huge fan and even subscribed to get his in-car audio. He had some hilarious interactions with Zippy back in the day. Doesn’t help that most of the tracks suck, but I might make an effort to check in for the road courses, short tracks, and last 15 laps of the plate races (the first 90% of the race is basically an exhibition).

Sweet, thanks for sharing that. “And buries it!” was a great moment.

Fair enough, I will just have to follow along in the proper sports subforum :grinning:

I lasted 2 minutes. I had an agreement with the operators at my chemical plant. I let them have NASCAR, they let me have hockey.

We talked college football.

Thanks, yeah me too. The last few years I only kept it up because I knew going to the race every year was a big deal for my Dad. Once we had golf to spend tons of time together, I had my out.

Thanks! The next time there’s a sports event with a lot of political significance when I’m not working, I’ll do updates on here again… And you can give the $10 to a related charity. ;)

I’m just glad he wasn’t pulled over and shot by a cop for an expired license plate.

I don’t know NASCARS. My uncle sold a boat to some guy named Rusty Wallace. Is he related to that guy?

Pretty funny.

The comments of people not realizing it’s satire is great too.

In case you need to know who to root for to crash:

Yep there’s NASCAR

From the never-won-a-race Redneck:

Of course he’s being accused by deplorables of putting it there himself

I wonder who paid for the “defund NASCAR” and Confederate flag banner to be flown over the track.
