I would say that the Confederate battle flags being flown around Nascar stadiums are way more unAmerican than sitting for the national anthem, but I'm not a redneck so I guess I don't get it.


It's a sign of rebellion, not racism

There is a black NASCAR driver and he's pretty good.


Pretty rough day for the guy I'd imagine.

The only black driver in the sport yet a few owners felt the need to speak out nonetheless.

Nascar has more people than just drivers, most of the pit crews are made up of former college football players, many of whom are black.

You're right....but i'd rather be called a redneck for liking fast cars than a pussy for not. I guess it's a personal preference though.

Same people who claim this will look at video game players and proclaim loudly that they don't play real sports.

You do realize Bubba isn't the first black NASCAR driver, correct?

Either way, it's a stupid tangent. We're talking about Americans in an American sport at the end of the day.

Considering thier entire database is trashy rednecks who are ultra quick to butthurt over faux patriotism yet proudly wave rebel flags; probably a smart move.

A lot of ignorant and trashy people in this thread, but it's not the NASCAR fans.

It's always funny with every NASCAR thread people rush to see who can post "redneck" first.
