Theyre discussing it on Dialed In right now with head of Nascar Shills Ramsey Poston. I dont think Digger itself is responsible for a ratings drop, but more the image he portrays. The image that, we as Nascar fans, would get all excited and happy as an 8 year old over this cartoon garbage is what people resent. Its more of an indication to just SHOW THE DAMN RACE™. Enough of this Hollywood Hotel, Digger, DWstore.com, Boogity Boogity Boogity, FoxSports Neanderthal Nonsense™
David Hill is completely out to lunch if he actually believes this. ""It was because of Digger that people were turning off in droves because they couldn't stand it," Hill said. "I said, 'I'm so sorry. If I'd known, I never would have created him. I didn't realize how insidious he was.'
"It's the biggest crock of (stuff) I've ever heard."
I remember one David Poole telling him it was a crock. And I dont by for a second that Fox doesnt know this because you can tell theyve toned it down 150 times now from where they were at Vegas and California.
Nascar grew on TV by focusing on the drivers, the racing, the competition. They should stick to that.
