John Force? It's not about liking the man. It's about giving equal coverage to all the other teams that work hard and spend millions to make the sport what it is.
It gets tiring watching interviews of fuel car drivers while they are running Pro/Stock. They can waste time showing a fuel car engine tear down but they can't give Pro/Stock it's due?
..and how about spending more time with the teams that are new or have smaller budgets but still manage to try and qualify? I'm sure their sponsors would love it.
The TV coverage has very little to do with what NHRA wants, and everything to do with what ESPN wants!!! This is not the ole Diamond P days when NHRA suits were in the editing room!! Ever seen how nervous Graham Light gets when they poke a camera at him???
I can't blame ESPN for hyping the Force team, because they are consistantly there!! Remember when they tried to hype T. Shumacher VS Hot Rod Fuller?? Then Fuller's deal fell apart and he was gone!! It's not good for ESPN when the casual fan can't follow a story line from week to week.
