This week in Nascar on SPEED

Who the,,, what the,,, why the,,, heck is Jimmy Spencer on that show??? I couldnt stomach a full episode while listening to that moron...He sat in that chair looking miserable or something else I dont know what. But, his negative comments were noticable even to Chad Knaus. I stopped watching the show late last year because I couldnt stomach the clowns that were there. And so now I could only barely stomach the show this year, and today I turn it on and there's Mr. Spencer!!! No way!
Anybody else feel the same way? Or am I off track here? Just my pennys worth!

OK so who remembers when Derricke Cope was the host? Didn't he start the show? Well, I guess he did the Nascar Today show, not TWIN.

Never mind

Robby and Jimmy understand each other - Each has been on NASCAR's hit list before so I think there is a mutal respect there. Plus, Jimmy would not have picked Robby to win those road courses if he didn't like him personally.

Had personal contact, was awesome and friendly. He must have just not liked you.

i like Knaus and Byrnes but Spencer Biffle and Mikey are all horrible. I would suggest replacing said jokes with someone like Jeff Burton, or Bobby Labonte. Former drivers Johnny Benson, Ken Schrader or Ricky Rudd would be good fits. I'm sick of Spence, Herm, Hermie, Elliott and all the other idiots that Speed finds amusing on their shows. They should look at ESPN who has guys like Dale Jarrett, Rusty Wallace, Andy Petree, Ray Evernham, and Tim Brewer....all champions.

years ago when spencer and Todd Bodine drove K-Mart cars my wife and I went to our local store and met them. Todd was nice enough and spencer was very nice to my boys (not as kid friendly as Robby) after he signed our die cast and we took a few pics the "come around the table I wont bite" good pics. Spencer asked if we were going to the Busch race the next day when I said no he gave my boys 4 tower tix (talladega).Never been a big fan of his but we pulled for him that week! If i'm thinking right he won 2 plate races for Jr Johnson then the next year at Daytona Brett Bodine was in that car and the intake was a big rule breaker making folks wonder if spencer won plate races fair !!!!!!

I forgot to mention - my one year old is named Joshua SPENCER Anderson. My wife said she always liked the name Spencer, so there you go.

If you name your kid after your favorite driver, you might be ...
