A cardboard cutout of Jabba The Hut would be better than Bob Jenkins.

Benjamin is a pro and showed it in the DC promo. His enthusiasm in the 30 sec. piece was more than Jenks in a whole weekend.

(strangely when I hear RB's voice I think of ASA racing on TNN. Ick....)

We all hoped, but Jenks was still in the booth. Admittedly he did a better job. But compared to the enthusiasm from Jon and TK's knowledge, he still has a long way to go. His enthusiasm didn't sound genuine.

On a side note on DC. Bronte really needs a speech coach. The constant pausing mid-sentence and head movement is a little annoying.

Rick Benjamin's voice always reminds me of stock car racing, but I've seen the guy around Mid-Ohio when hes not doing work so hes OK with me.

Jenks sucks.

Understatement of the year. A corpse would add more excitement (and insight) to the race.

My wife axed me who this Rick Benjamin (sp?) guy was, thought he sounded familiar. Then I realized he was a pit guy for Nastycar when we used to do that cr@p. I couldn't get that out of my head. Every time he spoke I expected him to say "I'm in the Earnhardt pits and...".

Great to see the Beeker back. :thumbup:

I really liked the guy! He impressed me. He was very professional and descriptive. He knew what he was talking about and all in all did some great work. Anyone, anyone at all would be better then Bob Jenkins!

I HATE Rick Benjamin ALMOST as much as I hate Jenkinz.

The guy have been toein' the I*L line, Rocky Burnett-style, since day one. Even on the web, where presumably, he don't get paid for his retarded opinions.

moron :thumdown:

:mad:
