Question:

Do you think the NASCAR season should be shorter so it does not run into football?

by | earlier

Why or why not.

I love Nascar and I would NOT like the season to be shorter. However, I notice that is does sometimes conflict with football. (I am an college football and NFL fan and watcher--however Nascar is my first and most important love.) I have solved this overlapping problem by getting a DVR recorder that my cable offers; therefore I can record the football and watch the Nascar live.

I was just wondering peoplesÃ¢Â€Â™ thoughts on the matter.

hehehe I like Fluffy's answer. And no. I really don't care about football. 3 months of nascar withdrawal is long enough! If nascar needs to look at shortening anything its the length of some of the races. I'm sorry but some of the tracks like Pocono, don't even deserve a 2nd date, let alone some of the most laps.

Well, i like having nascar and football on at the same time because when nascar goes on commercial, i switch to football, and when football goes on commercial, i switch back to nascar. I don't have sit through commercials as much when both sports are going on at the same time. I have a blast. My batteries in my remote don't last as long though

why? so we can watch grown men play with a ball. "Here, I'll throw the ball and we'll all go chase it, and when we get to the ball we can all lay on top of eachother" Football is cool but it's just not as fun as motorsports. My answer to your question is "No". And I could give you a whole bunch more reasons, but I don't want to insult your integrity. Remember, you are in the NASCAR forum.

I agree with you TOTALLY!  I have to chanel surf too!  And be quiet she is NOT a traitor!  She said plainly stated that Nascar is her first love!  duh  I love Football too!

Nascar is my first love, College Football second, Pro third, and that is not being a traitor, quiet the opposite!

You know I do wish there was some way they could make to where we'd never miss any races, or games.  Seems impossible though.

NASCAR NASCAR NASCAR - 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and s***w THE NFL!

OK, so MAYBE I went a little overboard, but if you read between the lines I'll bet you can figure out my answer. : )

i think Nascar should be shorter because if say that football come on at 5:00 and Nascar got a tie and then they had to right instead tommorrow it would make football start late nobody would watch it.

Thats an easy problem to solve. Watch the one you wanna watch. Us diehard fans shouldnt have to go without Nascar to appease the people who'd rather watch football. I personally start following football closely once the racing is over.

No, each sport is not gonna coordinate with each other so they don't overlap. I'm an open-wheel fan, but I'm sure with NASCAR, they play a lot of the races over the next day cause its so popular. I don't know though, if you have to then just choose between the two.

No. Not everyone follows NASCAR just like not everyone follows football. All the major sports attractions overlap. It's just the nature of the "beast" of the ability to make as much money as they all can by dragging out their seasons. Another thing you could do is have 2 TVs side-by-side, and install a splitter on your cable "out" wire so you can monitor both at the same time. I do that when two games are on at the same time.

NO. I think football, and baseball for that matter, should move out of NASCAR's schedule.

I will always watch football before auto racing of any sort.

Great point Storm, I have the same problem, I'm a die-hard football fan as well as NASCAR and they overlap.  Thank god for DVR's so we do not have to shorten the season.

I usually tape NASCAR as there isn't much coverage here in NY, you can literally go all day Sunday without the news spewing out the winner.  Football on the other hand, in this area is all over the TV, it's impossible to tape, as someone is bound to slip up and tell you.
