Well racing over for another year

Well today is officially the last day of the NASCAR season and NHRA finished up last weekend.
Congrats to the NHRA winners, John Force, Greg Anderson and Larry Dixon.

Now as far as the NASCAR chase goes, I really hate that new format they have. It seems to owrk with NHRA but in NASCRA I don't know. Jimmie Johnson wasn't even close to being first before the points were reset at the start of the chase. I dunno call me old fashioned but if you can win races and a championship at the end of a whole season without being 5000 points ahead of 33 other drivers then I think you deserve to win, but being reset at 5000 points and the top 10 being 5 point intervals of each from 1-10 place to me is garbage!

And one other thing as obviously the chase is going to be around a while what is up with TSN in Canada not showing any races on TV during the chase. I think they showed 3 out of the 10. They used to have most of them and ABC or NBC would have the rest. IS this some plot to get people buy new TV packages cause the races are now on TV packages that cost more? What happened to basic cable providing everything we need sports wise? I see now here in Canada the Sportnet has Sportsnet 2 and TSN2 which are having hockey games and races I don't currently sunscribe to. Don't really wanna upgrade to get 15 other channel i don't watch and one that I will..............
