I'll wait until part two, tomorrow, before I comment.

Now there's a guy I don't miss hearing from... or about.

Good idea Gary. I await the answer to "Was it all worth it?"

'King'? oh please, I think herrod is more accurate.

Think "king" Hiro and the derivation of the "king" moniker when you read that. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiro_Matsu****a
Because of politically correctness and one offended poster who moaned to the moderators, I was admonished and forced to drop the ellipsis that I used to place in front of "king".

P.S. Even more PC BS... the nanny filter screwed up the link bescause of the letters S*H*I*T in the name. Ridiculous. Here is another link: http://tinyurl.com/kinghiro .

I'm surprised none of the usual suspects jumped on this:

So far this year, the best thing that has happened to Danica has been she picked up the best motor coach driver in the business, who became available after being let go by IMS at the end of the 2009 season.

I just saw that part 2 is posted:

My opinion of this interview: He remains incredibly vague when asked about the past. He also does not appear to have much self-reflection. All the good things the last 12 months happened because of him and actual mistakes he cannot name. Very easy to say you would restructure when you clearly didn't and were in fact part of the problem.

I saw it, but it was just too easy...

Just read part two and this stands out from both parts:

HC: Reflecting back in general, are there any misconceptions you'd like to set straight?

TG: Misconceptions are only a concern to those that hold them.

HC: Given all that you know now -- all that you have been through -- was it all worth it to form the Indy Racing League? And why?

TG: That is a very broad, open question and the only thing I can do is reiterate what I said earlier, but perhaps say it another way.

There is great value in the Indy Racing League; it exists to support the institutions of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and the Indianapolis 500 Mile race; and I am proud of its contributions to the sport

All I can say is: and "de nile" is not just a river in Egypt.
