It's weird seeing the blue 2 as a Ford

eh, not for me. It was a Ford before it was a Dodge. But I am sad to see dodge leaving NASCAR, one has to wonder what their Charger would have looked like. And actually they had a 2013 Charger trimmed out and all ready to go before they pulled the plug.

They haven't been stock for decades, though. What models of today's production cars would people pay to see race anyway?

At least these look more like the showroom model than the last several attempts.

I realise they haven't been stock for decades. That's not my point. If they're going to race these roll cages with sheet metal they should consider not calling them "stock" cars. As for what models, people are watching the sheet metal versions of the fusion, ss and camry now. What's the difference between that and the monte carlo or thunderbird? or torino, charger and roadrunner? two doors? It used to matter what brand of car you raced, hell the manufacturers used to get points and a trophy at the end of the season not to mention the notariety of winning a nascar championship. Now they are so close to being the same car its not even funny.

      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.
