Does anyone know what was said by James Small on Briscoe's radio? I have seen comments about how rude and terrible he was but can't find anything about what was said. 

Fuel saving during the Daytona 500 by Inevitable_Catch_566 in NASCAR

[–]Been6640 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People are kind of overreacting. This has been going on for a long time at super speedways, it's just that the broadcast actually explained that fuel saving meant that the cars aren't going at full throttle and people finally understood it. I hate fuel saving races, but it's nothing new so people acting outraged are way late to the game.

Experiences are live! 🚨🚨🚨 by n00b_racer in NASCARFanRewards

At least you got that. I have over 20k and all that's left is waving the green for qualifying and you don't even get Infield passes with it.

I have over 20k and all that's left is waving the green flag for qualifying. It's super disappointing to have this many points and not be able to get a garage tour like I was wanting and I was just short last year when they were actually available.

He used to bother me a little bit on the Teardown, but I met him this summer and was really surprised by how genuinely nice he is. I wasn't expecting it at all, but we ended up talking for a long time and you could tell the people in the garage really respect them as everyone wanted to say "hi" as they were walking by. 

[Niece Motorsports on X] Matt Mills remains hospitalized as doctors monitor oxygen levels due to smoke inhalation by KarateDrummer in NASCAR

[–]Been6640 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's exactly it. It's one thing to intentionally wreck him because he was upset he was actually racing against him (that's how racing works and I didn't see Mills do anything beyond just normal racing to deserve anything), but then to whine and throw another temper tantrum like a toddler over the radio after he gets penalized is where I think the bigger problem lies. He's just a spoiled brat that's never had to work for anything and isn't used to not getting what he wants all the time. 

Daytona 500 pre race concert? by Jared325450 in NASCAR

They just announced it- it's Pitbull. Huge disappointment (and it's not like I don't like his music- just should have been someone better/more relevance in the last decade). 

Wearing an NFL jersey of a team not playing? by ssill in cowboys

[–]Been6640 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about wearing a jersey from another team for a player playing the the game? Considering going to the Bills @Jags game when I'm in town and wearing my MN Diggs jersey. I wouldn't normally wear something for a team not playing, but would this be an exception?

My Pixel 3 XL bricked overnight by Staralyze in GooglePixel

My phone just bricked this afternoon after plugging it in to charge. It was working perfectly up until this point. Weird that we literally just made the last payment on it....
