Only rednecks like NASCAR? Get your facts straight, dick. I’m from Philly, where there are less rednecks than elephants, but still like watching NASCAR. You mentioned twice not liking sports. How necessarily pertinent to the issue ::sarcasm:: . Maybe you should cover camel racing with your prejudices and myopic idiocy.

i hate NASCAR and share the same sentiments as the author. i work for a marketing company and alot of times we’ll do events at NASCAR races and i’m telling you majority of the people there i would classify as rednecks, i’d dare say ninety-five percent of the people that i’ve seen at the races are rednecks. its pretty universal dude… NASCAR equals rednecks… shit dale ernhart is a self proclaimed redneck…

I think the people whining about the salaries of English Premiership footballers should read this. Yes, footballers are overpaid, but they are still way behind what American sports stars earn.

How about Formula 1 drivers Michael Schumacher [$40 mil] and Lewis Hamilton [$35 mil] for 2010. And that doesnt include endorsement money. Seven time World Driving Champion Schumacher is the only athlete near Tiger’s earning power worldwide and is reported to be worth nearly $1 billion
