The best thing about watching Jimmy Johnson win, is watching him do his burnouts. They cut Jimmy Johnsons victory to do a split-screen with Dale E. Jr. bumming out because he got a DNF. The whole screen should've been Jimmy Johnson, at least while he was doing his "victory dance". I think so. That was so uncool. They could've waited to interview Junior. (no wonder Harvick declined a pre-race interview)

I agree, the winner deserves first priority.

It the announcers no matter what network they all have to comment on Jr. no matter where he is on the track position wise. The announcers and networks cant do simple math JOHNSON FANS+ GORDON FANS+ STEWART FANS+THE BUSH BROTHERS FANS + HARVICK FANS +HAMLIN FANS+ BURTON FANS= WAY MORE FANS THAN THE JR. NATION Not to mention the other drivers fans as well. It has been this way since the 1st race of the season and the last 3 years. The sqeakiest wheel gets the grease. I think it is absolutely sickening.

I think it had to do with timing. Maybe they were trying to talk to Jr the same time that Johnson was doing his burnout. Maybe they wanted to make Jr and Johnson's fans happy. You have to keep in mind that FOX had a lot more experience at broadcasting Nascar than ESPN does. Maybe they can build on their mistakes in the future.

Not being a Jimmie fan, I still have to give him props when it comes to burnouts. He's just about the best there is when it comes to burnouts...love that smoke surrounding the car!
Go Jr.>>>.

4-Real. Thats just ABC/ESPN they are JR crazy. Maybe it was the "Thrill of victory and the agony of defeat" Wide World or Sports moment.
