Just to clarify my mention of Joel Osteen, he is the most obvious proponent of “prosperity gospel”, meaning that God wants you to be rich. Brian France would be a likely poster boy for this, should he describe himself as a Christian. Mr. Le Tourneau of earthmover fame and other inventions, gave 90% of his income to God and still lived adequately. Brian could probably do the same. But to be fair and balanced, we still have prayer at the races!

Brian France is the Alfred E. Newman of NA$CAR.

I think Nascar is prosecuting the wrong drug user.

I have been shaking my head when I listen to Brian France and Mike Helton, kind of like when I listen to Joel Osteen, which is VERY seldom. The speaker is intense, convincing, somewhat organized, but at the end of the message, I really wonder what any of them really said. Watching the races on TV, I am amazed that a dictatorship like NASCAR allows ABC/ESPN to use the camera angles that show the thousands of empty seats. It’s kind of like Mark Martin saying he’d like to spend time with John Mellencamp. John has evolved from an agrarian populist to a leftist welfare state advocate. Similarly, NASCAR has changed over the years. What about Mark? I have no clue! I am probably one who has not “evolved” with times.
