Double File Restarts are a Go

Didn't make the race a bit more interesting. But then, I didn't expect it to at Pocono, or Michigan, or California, or Vegas, or Kansas City, or Chicago. But I do think it will make races at the smaller tracks more interesting.
Too bad there aren't more short tracks on the schedule.

That being said, this wasn't the ideal race to introduce the shootout-style restart. In fact, most of the races coming ahead aren't going to be ideal for the shootout style restart.

(Makes me think that's why TNT is covering these races, because they're crap and no one else wanted to cover them) :lol:

And I'd like to go on record that TNT's broadcast STILL sucks balls in comparison to FOX and ESPN. Boo hiss. I find it odd to say that Kyle Petty is the only bright spot to their broadcast
You've got to be kidding. FOX over TNT, certainly (except for the first part of the decade with the Bestwick/Dallenbach/Parsons combo with NBC, they were great) but ABC/ESPN is utter, horrible crap. Makes Nationwide races virtually unwatchable.

    • After some of the calls last year probably won't see much of a drop off 
    • https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48344034/nfl-begin-hiring-replacement-officials-given-state-negotiations-nfl-referees-association   Honestly fug these refs and their union. Resisting changes that would actually incentivize good performance and not seniority based systems. What a bunch of donkeys. Hope the replacements straight up take their jobs and never give them back. Sick of watching refs script games with no repercussions.
    • Donovan seems like highest risk to me. Lloyd and May have already established relationships with all these kids. There’s probably guys hitting the portal that they recruited from HS. And then there’s the possibility of transferring their own guys from their current teams. They’ve also been recruiting the HS kids for like the next 5 years already. Look at the Iowa coach who hit the ground running by transferring all his guys from his D2 program. Or going across sports to Cignetti transferring all his JMU guys year one then building off that to a national title year 2. Donovan is starting from square one having been in the NBA so long and he’s already 60. So you’re potentially punting year 1 for a guy you are just hoping to be a 10 year hire while you figure out how to actually develop your next home grown 20yr guy. That’s 1/10th of the time you have him, more or less at best. The hope would be that he would find some high level assistants who have been working the college recruiting trails already, but then are you giving up his ideal staff just to get a foothold in recruiting and transfers. Think Belichick year one was bad? Imagine how much worse it would be without Steve Belichicks transfer portal pulls. Hoping Mays or Lloyd are all they’re cracked up to be.
