Frocking ESPN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They just showed a replay of the Briscoe wreck and likened it to the Zanardi wreck from 4 years ago? :saywhat: Are these idiots off their rockers or what? Nothing close to Alexs' wreck, not even close to the same series. :flame:

They could have somewhat compared it to Bracks wreck at Texas. Aren't ABC/ ESPN/ IRL "Partners"? Wouldn't you think they would have accurate information to pass on to the sports casters who have no idea about either series? :shakehead

Nope, not when 2/3's of the partneship you list in your quote view every IRL race as a necessary evil to be able to televise the Indy 500, greatest race in the universe. :gomer:

That is pretty strange to compare an IRl flying wreck to a tbone Cart wreck of four years ago where no cars went flying, when in fact this is almost identical to Brack's wreck in the same series of less than two years ago.

The real tradgedy is that pressdog actually attended this race and hasn't posted his usual hilarious rundown on the witty reparte emanating from the announcers booth. :( I'm hoping he taped the broadcast and will post his comments in a few days....
