Dave – I consider you and Rob to be friends, but quite frankly the new form is CRAP, and people are voting with their keyboards.  You have better numbers than I do, but I’m betting forum traffic is down by 90%.  Forum traffic drives site traffic, and loosing that sort of site traffic is a disaster.

I just posted a classified to sell a kart and it was a disaster!  It got so f-ed up that I gave up and re-submitted a new ad.

I’ve tried to give the new format a fair chance, but I’m very close to punting – and punting means I won’t be back.

Time to declare victory and go back to the old system.

Fans of a particular driver tend to have short memories when it comes to his flaws.

Senna fans say he was better than Schumacher because MS drove another driver off the road when the championship was at stake – conveniently forgetting when Senna did exactly that to Prost.

Alonso fans say he’s better than Vettel because Vettel has a hard time playing nice with a similarly competitive teammate – conveniently forgetting what went on between Alonso and Hamilton when they were teammates at McLaren.  Alonso fans also seem to forget that Alonso was involved in, not one, but two major cheating scandals where he did his best Sgt. Shultz imitation claiming “I know nothing, nothing!” and the FIA let him off.

I was not surprised to hear some booing of Vettel during the Monza podium celebration – after all it is the home of Ferrari.  What did surprise me was the level of booing that Vettel got during the Canadian GP podium ceremony – it’s not like the Canadians had a home team or driver to root for or that Vettel had done anything particularly wrong while dominating that race.  I considered that to be particularly boorish behavior – I used to think Canadians were better than that.

Hi Mike

Shipped it out today USPS Priority to your California facility – should be there Thursday.  I’m just waiting to hear what they find – hope it’s something simple that can be easily fixed :-)

My DVR recorded it perfectly off NBCSN using DirecTV.  What was your source, Comcast?

Bob, is your memory that short?  Hunter-Reay (driving for Andretti) won the championship last year, has two wins this year and standing third in points, and Hinch has 3 wins this year.  Not exactly a backmarker team….  In fact, Andretti has 3 drivers in the top 7, Penske has one in the top ten (granted Helio’s in first).

SI is saying Michael Andretti wants JPM if he can line up sponsorship.  Part of it apparently has to do with GoDaddy stepping up to back the Hinch for another season (or more).

Yep, I’m serious. Check your PM :-)
