True.
And many of the drivers if not a majority.
Johnson, Bowyer, Busch, Busch, Edwards, Kenseth, Gordon, Logano, Keslowski, Stewart, Harvick, Biffle, are all from the North or the West.

Yep. Car racing in general is trashy as hell. Go figure racing fans are the ones defending Stewart.

False!
Fisrt let me state, that im not blaming NASCAR for Kevin Ward's death in any way, but NASCAR is a Southern Sport. It was born and raised in the South. Most of the original Tracks were all in the South. NASCAR started expanding to Northern and Western tracks just in the 90's or the last 15-20 years. NASCAR has and always will be a Southern sport. I know you dont want to hear that, but thats just the way it is.
Year of first NASCAR event:
Martinsville, VA 1949 (South)
Darlington, SC 1950 (South)
Richmond, VA 1953 (South)
Watkins Glenn, NY (North)
Daytona, FL 1959 (South)
Atlanta, GA 1960 (South)
Charlotte, NC 1960 (South)
Bristol, TN 1961 (South)
Brooklyn, MI 1969 (North)
Talladega, AL 1969 (South)
Pocono, PA 1975 (North)
Sonoma, CA 1990 (West)
Loudon, NH 1993 (North)
Indianapolis, IN 1994 (North)
Ft Worth, TX 1997 (South)
Fontana, CA 1997 (West)
Phoenix, AZ 1998 (West)
Las Vegas, NV 1998 (West)
Homestead, FL 1999 (South)
Kasas City, KS 2001 (North)
Chicagoland, IL 2001 (North)
Sparta, KY (South)
So as you can see, before the 90's, NASCAR was almost exclusively in the South. The culture of NASCAR is a southern sport.

So you don't know shite from shinola about anything (racing related), but you're assigning blame to someone other than the guy walking on a race track?

How about you and Rickety Cricket go make a racing is trashy thread and circle jerk with each other in it, and the rest of us don't have to hear about it?

Colin Cowherd is the Westboro Baptist Church of sports media.
PLEASE do not listen to him or give him attention or even get outraged.
When you get angry and outraged at his stupidity, he wins.

Hockey is a north east sport which promotes fighting and has had players end careers with sticks to the head.
Mlb is most popular in northeast promotes throwing a 100mph ball at someone.
Its all eye for eye.
Yesterday i loved Kincaid on the radio. Said it was the dumbest day hes ever had on radio. Basically pointed out that people who never give racing time of day are now experts and believe crazy stories in their head instead of video evidence. Also scary how many people who have an idea j n their head before seeing any evidence and refuse to change their mind because some will be on a jury one day and will ignore the obvious.
A ton if stupid people out there. Some are trolls like rickety..some are really that stupid

I was listening to his show when he was talking about this and the whole time I was baffled by what he was saying. He is so annoying how he come off as some elitist prick that knows everything and if someone doesn't have the same view as him, they are stupid.

So are you guys saying that NASCAR isnt a "southern" sport? Thats like saying Hockey isnt a "northern" sport. Just because the NHL is in Arizona, Florida, Tenn, NC, Texas, Colorado and California doesnt mean its somehow not a northern sport. The NHL was born and raised in the North. The fact is that NASCAR was born and raised in the South. It does have a southern culture. I disagree that the culture is what led to Kevin Ward's death, but anyone saying that NASCAR doesnt have a southern culture is wrong.
