Please get rid of Larry McReynolds. I'm not a big Nascar fan but I know I'd enjoy it so much more if he was not broadcasting the races. His voice is just plain irritating. I don't care how much insight he has, it makes me want to change stations. As Tony Kornheiser described him during the Daytona 500: "And all I can say about one announcer is that he is a Goober." jb
Yeah if he spoke "ENGLISH" it would really help out. im tired of hearing about... 1. rain that washed the track down with rubber 2. cars that need "extrie tars" 3"we used to do what he's doin" and i know "goober" doesent say it but get rid of "boogity,boogity,boogity too Neil "ert" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

thing abut larry mac is that he speaks from the heart. He loves the sport and it shows. You would rather have the NBC crew of Dallenbach and Parsons? DC

Well if your into nr2003 you can listen to Larry Mac and DW and learn how to adjust your car plus I like them (FOX) a whole lot better than NBC. DC wrote:

They think they're such "personalities" that we tune in to hear / see them. Also, they are more interested in telling us what they think, rather than what's going on out on the track. And yes, Larry Mac's voice makes me turn the sound down. IMO, he has yet to tell us something we don't know. Also, someone should tell Chris Myers this is not open-mike night at the local Comedy Club.

I tend to disagree. I think FOX has a good blend of coverage, only talking nonsense when there's nothing going on in the race (circling under yellow for instance). Although Larry Mac may not be the best tv personality, he beats the hell out of Alan Bestwicke. Benny used to be great with Bob and Ned, and I just don't think he has a good "fit" with the people he's working with now.

if you are "not a big NASCAR fan" whats the issue? IMHO those of us that watched espn and tnn realize that he has a lot to offer, even if it does come with an accent....so much so that he deserves more respect than you aparently realize. as for the boogity...whats wrong with somebody showin a bit of real excitement?
