Non issue. There are no blacks in Nascar racing. They don’t have the balls.

This never had to be said.

I’ve been asking how many laps it would take for a kneeling driver to hit the wall. I think it will be in the first five laps. The other drivers will be fighting for the right to apply the chrome horn.

In reality, the kneeling driver or crewman will be immediately escorted out of the pits and will need to find his own ride home.

Maybe. All I know is that post Charlottsville, they sanitized all NASCAR racing venues by removing anything that vaguely resembled a Confederate flag or logo.

"Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, 'Get that son of a b---- off the field right now,'" Trump said during a Friday rally. "'He is fired.'"

My point of view about this subject is not so much about the player disrespecting the flag or the nation because that is his right as a citizen to think what he likes.

But for me it is an employee issue. These men are bringing their company’s reputations in to disrepute.

They are on the field (their work place), in uniform (their company’s logo) and on the clock.

They are being paid to represent their employer. On the field they have no right to express their own opinions; political or otherwise.

And in my personal opinion is when you are paid at the level of a quarterback even on your own time you had better be very careful about what you say and do. Those people are always under the watchful eye of the press and anything they do is easily made a nationwide scandal.

I believe that the Team should be able to fine a player for making scandal that brings the team poor press.

NASCAR can law down the law more effectively than other sports because of the way it's organized.

Leagues like the NFL, the NBA, Major League Baseball, and NHL are comprised of independently-owned teams that operate as a cartel under a league management structure that is set up by the owners.

NASCAR is completely different, with NASCAR functioning as a sanctioning body (the "league") completely separate from the racing teams. There is also the added complication of race tracks that are owned independently and play a big role in the success of the business. The contractual relationships between NASCAR, the racing teams and the track owners are unlike anything you'll find in any of the other major sports.

Because if they did they would lose even more viewers than they are currently.That being said I am glad Nascar has made a stand against that nonsense.

Not a lot of black drivers, so shouldn’t be a problem.
