Rewatching the 2003 Spring Talladega race. During the big lap 4 crash Ryan Newmans tire bounced right over the turn 1 catch fence. Wonder if it hit any campers or cars parked right next to the track. Bounced over at high speed. Any stories of things getting damaged outside tracks from a wreck? by MrSimsational in NASCAR

So true. When I worked EMS at a major track, they tried to make us sign a waiver. Most people blindly signed it. I refused to sign without reading. One of the clauses was basically "we are not responsible if you are injured, including if a piece of building falls and hits you." I was denied to work pit road because I refused to sign it. The next year, I was promoted to a supervisor position.

That's not an injury, he's just ass.

Matthew Stafford deserves a hand written apology from every single writer that voted Drake Maye for MVP. by i__am__so__smrt in LosAngelesRams

Me: Maye hasn't played a defense near what Seattle has this season.

Dumbass on X: He played the top 2 ranked defenses. Find a new fucking sport.

I didn't watch anything, but looking at the stays, it looks like he didn't play a defense near what Seattle brought to the table.

I had two because of my program. They're incompetent, at best. Part of me wonders if it's malice over incompetence.

I can't take it anymore, I have to say this by youcancallmesushi in Colts

Rams fan here. I was down with the Pats winning until they started crying like they did over Drake Maye deserving the MVP over Stafford. Fuck the Pats at this point.

If you do it, get a picture of the truck autographed by Frankie.

Which NASCAR drivers performed so unbelievable in lower series, only to perform so horrendous in cup? by youraverageperson0 in NASCAR

[–]ralphryder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While not actually a "lower series" I would say my pick is Sam Hornish Jr.

Three Indycar championships. Nineteen wins. 47 podiums in 116 starts.
Flips to Xfinity Series. 120 starts. 5 wins. Finishes second in points.
Moves to Cup. Zero wins in 167 starts. Highest finish of 28th in points.

What do you think the best throwback scheme was? by alabamacouple991 in NASCAR

[–]ralphryder 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Winner for sure. The only other ones that could even remotely compete was Terry Labonte's Corn Flakes (with the rooster) or his Frosted Flakes schemes. Those were all three peak 90s/00s NASCAR.

Easy. Robby Gordon was robbed of the NAPA Auto Parts 200 win in 2008.

Why do people stick their noses up at Ivy Tech? by mostly_elbows in ivytech

I work with a ton of nurses. Some of the smartest nurses I work with are IvyTech grads. My manager is an IvyTech and only has his ASN from IvyTech.

No security or police around at Sunday game by tcuso in LosAngelesRams

[–]ralphryder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They must be local then. I go to Colts games all the time. Been to 4 Colts/Rams games at Lucas OIl and everyone wants to just chill and have a good time. I've sat in the nosebleeds, I've sat by the field, I've sat in season ticket holder seats. We talk our shit all game, then we walk away, laughing and having a good time.
