LMITOUT Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Dale Jarrett is now going to be in the booth instead of Rusty Wallace for the races covered by ESPN. A good move, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PierBridge Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 I'm not sure about this I think DJ is quite boring.... but we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VMS Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 DJ I feel does a much better job. Rusty just doesn't have the same on-screen/ ability to call the race well...To me, this is a good move....Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishing tech Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 DJ will be good. Rusty gets into the me and I. He like to hear himself talk. DJ is only going to be part time the 1st year or so. Look for him to join the senior golf tour in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwhjr Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Yeah, Rusty did get into the Me and I a lot. I'm sure it was tough for him watching his first year out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMITOUT Posted January 25, 2008 Author Share Posted January 25, 2008 I haven't heard anything about him joining the golf tour, but they have said many times that he could have went pro when he was young. He is apparently pretty darn good, but decided to follow his dad into racing instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spearchucker Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 That whole ESPN screw sucked in my opinion. I liked Rusty as a driver, but he didn't quite cut it as an announcer. Brad Daurghty??(the basketball player) didn't know anything about racing but is a good speaker, and Andy Petree never said anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neighbor_guy Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Not only the crew, but the coverage. Never saw a good restart with the abc/espn coverage. "And we are back, the cars areon the back streach....." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
