Countdown Poll

[clwill]

Gotta be every time the word "countdown" is used. Oh, and good luck with that.

Wait, PP often refers to it as "the playoffs"...

 

[jpee]

well now to be fair there should be categories.

The announcers and interviewers are the ones directly being told to push it so tracking them is truely the question.

Of course it would be interesting to also track other mentions of it as well

PJ not to worry... I am a retired cop.. and will treat this like a "Major Crime" I did dot my i's and cross my T's... you guys will get a full report...

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly!!

Give me the Countdown over "clinched with 2 races to go" any day of the week.

In the drinking game, that would be double doubles.........

A more meaningful poll (and, the results should go to Glendora), would be:

How many Nitromater members think the Coundown is a good idea, and should be continued.

0-1
1-2
1-3
1-4

If I had the smarts, I'd make up such a poll. But, I think I already know what the results would be.

Bill, you'd actually be surprised b/c for some reason unknown to everyone else there are about 3 to 5 people around here who actually support it. I think they just feel the need to be different b/c it blows harder than a $2 hooker.

Bill,
If you could get EVERY one of the members to vote you might be supprised at the results.

You are so right. I was so tired of PP saying the word 'clinched' with no other verbiage before or after it. What the hell does that mean out of context? Sounds like a wardrobe malfunction when referenced the way he said it a ton of times. Almost glad that time has passed to tell you the truth.

 

[Bill]

Well, I could be wrong, that's for sure.

On another drag racing BB (one made up primarily of Stock and Super Stock racers) I beat the drum like Buddy Rich, for a worse red light rule change for about a year, and in the final analysis, I couldn't even get the guys with the S-L-O-W cars (cars that would benefit the most often) to agree that it was a good idea.... so, I just gave up.

What seems like a foregone conclusion to me, isn't always seen as a good deal by others.

Guess it takes all kinds....

OK guys... I'm going to sacrifice myself....won't talk to the wife, I'll lock the dog outside, won't let the grandkids over, & Will Watch the Whole 3 Hr SHOW...... 7-10 PM Eastern Time...& Will Count
I hope this gracious gesture on my part is appreciated by all... As it is, my wife says I'm "SENILE" now she's gonna say I'm nuts too...

Everybody crack open your piggy banks to help with Johns' "Phsyo" appointments. 3 Hrs. of counting the countdowns he's going to need it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Polls done here as well as other news sites usually flow between 70-80% against the countdown. But hey I guess those 20-30% are more important to nhra then the rest us

Guys.. you ain't gonna believe this, but I just got home from the hospital

I was admitted Sat morning, and just released today Oct. 5th 1:00pm
I never saw the Sat qualifying, or the race on Sunday....

Did anyone get any type of count ??

 

[jpee]

I found out Sun. was rained out... I'm watching it on TV now... its still 1st round... Mike Dunn said something about Running in the "Countdown"... then followed his statement with "I better watch my back" if I say that" PP said I have you back covered

I only got 3 so far....

 

[Bullard Anderson]

Jeff Arend wasn't in the Countdown, but I swear the yellow car was on my TV all night!! What gives! Doesn't make a bit of sense! Guess you go rounds and you're on the tube. Cool!
