    Tweet at @BoxOfNeutrals and remember to add the #AskMcGinley for the supplement section (AOD90604 maybe James Hird will show up).

    Or was this on SEN or some such?

    'RSE Ventures is headed by Stephen Ross, owner of the Miami Dolphins football team.'

    Mr. Ross is no Paul Allen. If it's anything to be guaged with the success of his AFC franchise I wouldn't expect any improvements outside of something related to promotional level.

    Well, were not using NFL success as a gauge for F1 leadership. I want Kraft to stay the **** away from being associated with F1.

    I should point out that the NFL is very very communist.
    It has salary caps and the draft and has an interesting way of sharing TV rights.

    How does a team like New Orleans go from second draft pick (because they were the second worst team in the NFL) in 2006, to Champions in 2009? That'd never happen in F1... unless you're Ross Brawn.

    Now Qatar can have a GP without any bribing allegations.

    Ha. Qatar is one of the few states without a race in that region.

    Buying F1 is going a bit far
