Ban Suzy Kolber from NASCAR broadcasts


You may recall that earlier this year I was a little annoyed with ESPN for having Brent Musberger on their NASCAR Busch Series broadcasts. My problem with Musberger is the same problem I have with Chris Myers on FOX. He doesn't know enough about NASCAR to add anything to the broadcast. They don't need him. Last week Musberger was busy with the Indy 500. So was Rusty Wallace. ESPN hired Dale Jarrett to fill in for Wallace and they brought in Suzy Kolber to fill in for Musberger for today's Busch Series race in Dover. Kolber is even more annoying and vapid than Musberger. I don't have a problem with women broadcasting NASCAR. Krista Voda & Wendy Venturini do a very good job on SPEED. Venturini is from a racing family. But Kolber is way out of her comfort zone in NASCAR. She was really terrible on today's show. Stick to bad interviews on football sidelines. Anyway, Carl Edwards won the race (yawn). The big rumour in the NASCAR garage is the possibility that Joe Gibbs Racing could switch from Chevy to Toyota. That would be interesting.
