DRIVING FORCE #5/PAUL PAGE #1

Driving FARCE is just another non-reality show where the central theme is dysfunction and chaos. To have a hit TV show in America you film a confrontational freak show and do a bunch of hack editing and it's an instant success. I feel sorry for John because he just doesn't get it, but mostly I feel sorry for Laurie and the daughters. Can you imagine having to live with John every day? All the money in the world can't buy John or his family happiness it would appear. Why am I NOT surprised?

Doug Herbert IS a classy guy. John Force could learn something from him... Looks like Wayne has some issues he needs to work through.

Sport Compact is about to become a statistic with or without drifting or a teenage T&A show.

Can NOT agree that Paul Page is improving when he calls Melanie Troxel “Hillary Will” and he has Pro Stock cars running 4.70 ET’s, which must be quite a surprise to the P/S teams... Give us Marty Reid - PLEASE! What the hell was ESPN thinking? And that ghetto music  - (Here we come...) they play in the background is so maddening I could strangle those clueless "musicians" if I could get my hands on those fools.

ESPN's Powerade coverage is getting so bad I'm about to just skip it altogether. I don't need to be subjected to Paul Page or ghetto music to watch ESPN do foolish stuff like Scelzi Says and trivial crap instead of actually showing the racing.

DRIVING FORCE #6

I actually like the Driving Force show. I was a HUGE Force fan when I was a kid and through Jr. High. I pulled for him when he couldn't win a race and Kenny (Bernstein) was beating up on him. Over the years and all the championships I started disliking him; he was dominating and not human anymore. The show reminds me of the quirky, funny, and emotional Force that cried on his roof after his father died and he won his second race (but first televised (Canada race didn't get TV coverage). 

He's human, and it was hard to see that the last 13 years.

The Force girls should do the show in swim suits. Talk about ratings. Have a contest for dinner -- I will go for Ashley.
