wow, no matter where he goes, DF gets blasted for his comments
When ESPN interviewed her (what a surprise, no other 19th place finisher gets an interview) the graphic was about this being her first finish on the lead lap. BFD. Even Morgan Shepherd was on the lead lap, and the last time that happened was at IRP this year where almost everyone running was on the lead lap. Same thing at Homestead. Everyone who didn't crash or have some other significant problem was on the lead lap.Quote:

But she did take that car that qualified 5th and beat Robert Richardson, Jr.
Not being able to watch it up here in the Great White North I have to rely on DF to tell me what a great job she did passing cars on her way from 5th to 19th.
At another Indy Car-centric forum, the clowns over there are crowing about her "beating" Sam Hornish Jr. Including washed-up Indy Car "star" Paul Tracy.Quote:

She'll never catch them now and most with a brain already know that.
Yes, lets throw her a parade for finally finishing on the lead lap (of course, when there is a caution every 10 laps and the "lucky dog", its hard for anyone to lose a lap) with a car and a team that is better then 90% of the field she is competing against.
Some of these Danica-Fanica's are just plain delusional.
Thank goodness the NASCAR season is over, so we don't have to hear anything more about Danica "Still Learning" Patrick and her stock car exploits.
I just have visions of him sat in his Danicave with all these forums open, furiously copy pasting in his posts, talking to his lifesize cutout and telling her not to listen to all the detractors and that he believes in her...Quote:

And ESPN isn't tied to him being somewhat competitive. They desperately need her to be more then Morgan Shepherd, Michael Annett and Tony Raines race-mates.
The race was on TSN2Quote:

If I could just get TSN2 at a sensible price I would but why should I pay mega fees for crap I will never watch?
