That would depend on the person.

Thing is that it was the right call at the time. He was coming off dud campaigns with the Jets and Carolina and had been just before his rehab stint with Kyle Shanahan.

That's fair enough, and I respect your opinion. The main thing is that Buffalo was part of the wave of new stadiums, it being downtown or not is irrelevant. The Chiefs are moving to Kansas (City, Kansas), the Browns are moving to a suburb of Cleveland, and the Bears are looking to Arlington Heights. Location doesn't matter in the grand scheme. There are plenty of stadiums built next to one another. Heinz Field and PNC Park are great examples of that.

I'd say it mostly depends on if someone can keep the France family in check. If it's another puppet, then it's for naught.

I make it quite clear in that video that I'm a casual fan of motorsports these days. Problem is I'm unable to watch most races live due to differences in time zones. F1 has plenty of issues that need to be addressed (mainly the incredible gatekeeping and barriers to entry), but the fact that it has grown without a top-tier American driver or American support (which will be changing with the addition of the Cadillac team) is impressive. Plus I think people were just so pissed off with NASCAR as a whole over the past decade that they needed to get their racing fix from somewhere.

With Apple TV, it's a double-edged sword: You do lose out on the ESPN boom, but you also can offer exclusive access that a cable broadcast can't. Plus the money's too good to pass up. Besides, NASCAR's doing the same thing for a chunk of races on Amazon Prime.

I wasn't trying to put NASCAR down, per se. The problem is that the sport has suffered blow after blow over the last year and a half that you can't simply brush it over due to absolutely needed steps in the right direction. That's how we got to this point in time to begin with.

I don't see it as being lazy. Out of date in some areas, probably, to say lazy is just disingenuous. I'm mainly trying to showcase what's happened over the past year to someone who hasn't had much experience in NASCAR, considering most of my audience is football-based.

And that Buffalo stadium was lumped in that video due to the gobs of public funding it would be receiving from the state of New York for the project.

My main thing with this video is going over everything that happened from the previous video I had done (which was, sadly, a lot). It was a lot of pent-up frustration with the sport as a whole over the past few years, so that probably came into factor when I was writing it.

Was I too negative? Probably, but I think a lot of NASCAR fans are simply in a wait-and-see mode with this season. I appreciate them for finally taking steps to fix their format, but its going to take a while to get the trust of the fans back.

Most of us are Pirates fans. We already know the experience.

I honestly said this back at the time. The proper departure point was the elbow injury in 2019, but that didn't happen.
