:shrug: Is their weekly consumption a proverbial drop in the bucket? Would they consider suspending until the situation resolves?

1. They really should.
It would be the right thing to do.

2. I was discussing this earlier with a friend
We figured NASCAR could do the patriotic thing without losing its fan base by shortening the length of races.

Next up on Faux Sports: the Talladega 3.

3. No. They will say, like football did after 9/11...that the show must go
on. That it will help people return to normal. And, this time, they will be dead wrong. And I'm a Nascar fan.
