I know racing is a time-honored pastime for spectators and gamblers. But what makes it interesting to you? As an outside observer I see people staring at cars going around and around a crowded little track on TV and I wonder, "how can this be interesting?" Yet obviously it captures the attention of millions of my countrymen.

So I am curious. What hooked you? Why do you care who wins a race? Is there a dramatic back story to your favorite driver that found its way into your heart?

Also, do different things happen in races that vary the action up and make it interesting? All I can think of is: a) Someone passes someone else, b) Someone drops out of the race due to technical difficulties, or c) Someone crashes. Is there more to the in-race action? What dynamics am I missing? Is what happens off the track (between races) more interesting than what happens on the track? Is that where the drama that keeps you interested occurs? Thanks for your input.

When and why did NHL teams switch to wearing the solid color jerseys at home games and white jerseys on the road? And is this switch temporary or permanant?

I fish for smallmouth bass at Hickman Creek all the time, and I normaly use a small 2'' white grub on a jighead and do very well with it, but I thought that I might try useing a Rooster Tail. What is the best size, color, and line to use. Hickman creek is a somewhat small creek in Jessamine county Kentucky and is almost always crystal clear thoughout most of the creek. it has moderate current in most spots with some slow areas. the swift current is usally about 4 to6 feet deep and has a mixture of alot of fist sized rocks with a few larger rocks. most of the rocks are a brown shade. I hope this is enough information to provide a very detailed answer.

He might just be the most over-rated pitcher of all time. He only had a .526 winning percentage, third all time in losses, averaged 13-12 records for his career, and he surrendered 2795 walks and 277 wild pitches during his career, far more than any other pitcher in baseball history. He had little success in leading teams to the postseason.
Over-rated -agree?

It just seems like 70 Million to Drew and the first 1/3 of the season he hasn't really been much. Trot wasn't great, but he is in the top 30 of Sox history in HR, RBI, and OBP. I want to know what other Sox fans think.

I have a pink Kayak, and I am having the hardest time finding a matching life jacket. The best I've seen is black life vests with some small pink lining or whatever. Seriously! I can't believe nobody out there sells pink life jackets. Pink is the new black!

They had a pretty good draft and it seems like they might finally have a decent time. How do you expect them to do this year and in future years?

I'm looking for a bike to take from work and back daily. I am also interested in a bike that I can take to the trails. I am a beginner. I know that I want a mountain bike, and I am interested in full suspension. I would like a bike that has a more aggresive stance versus me siting up right. Freeride bikes have more interesting looks, but I'm not sure that's what I need. Can some one tell me what I should be looking at in terms of the different styles of bikes. Also, I'm five nine, what size frame should I be looking at? Thanks for the help. P.S. WHat is freeride anyway?

I bought a 56 Size Trek 1500 Race Alpha Aluminum (SLR) yesterday. I measured Frame 56 has a 17" long "Handlebar". Unfortunately, I am 5’7”. I must go back for a frame size 54. (Frame 56 is too big for me)

The problem for Frame Size 54 is the handlebar size is only 16”. Is there any way to extend the handlebar at least one more inch to 17” for the Frame 54?

I am mountain bike rider and new to race bike, so small handle bar causing problem for me to hold it.

Could this be another example of how Mark Cuban is letting his ego get yhe best of him? Did his show on ABC work out well? How many World Titles have the Dallas Mavericks won? Why doesn't he just buy a Pro Wrestling company and go after WWE?
