Fantasy leaque changed it all


Recommended Posts

Since the fantasy leaque started,my interest in the weekly races has really changed.I use to cheer for the drivers I liked and didnt care anything for the others.

Now,I make my picks and cheer for them,Hendrick and Rousch included.If I didnt pick Jr.,o well.

I really lost my interest in the races other than my picks.

Anyone else? Maybe I'm taking this way to serious. confused.gif

I've noticed that my "intensity" when the 24 car gets taken out or has a bad day has decreased a bit, as long as my fantasy drivers are doing well. Last year's bad year also has me throwing caution to the wind with the 24, so I'm a little "fearful" (for lack of a better term) of getting too exicted about his car until the race is over.

It's still early in the season, give it time. Jr. is still doing well so those folks are quiet. Wait a few more weeks when he starts to fall apart and blame everyone from the janitor at the shop to the media for his bad luck.

Now that should stir things up for a day or two!

For me it"s always been that way. DEI, RCR, Rouch, Ford, Chevy. It's the racing excitment itself for me. But I always want Dale Jr. to do good, even though I'm a Ford man. Do you think it would be tacky if I put a #8 sticker on the back of my FORD truck? laugh.gif

It wont stir me up as Jr and his team looks to have thier stuff together.I predict he will make the top ten.

If he does not make it,yes I'm willing to eat my words.

Yes, I would put a Jr decal on my Ford,it would dress it up.

I think alot of the "boredom" if you want to call it that with this years racing has alot to do with there not being much racing going on. Cautions for spring rubbers and more comercials than I can count. I swear that somehow they have managed to add another half hour to each race this year, and two hours of prerace? I do not think that all of these new fans are going to be good for the sport in the long run. They have changed just about every aspect of racing to accomidate the new fan while alienating the veteran fans. What will NASCAR be left holding if these new fans change their mind like they did with hockey?

Yes, I will admit that Jr. is running alot better than I thought he would. Time will tell if he is a cut from the same stone or just another marble rolling around on the playground, in reference to a championship(s). I don't think people should try and compare him to his dad, since that was a completly diffent NASCAR than it is now. He should be measured against his peers, Stewart, Gordon, Busch and Kenseth.

    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
