@mikejoy500 Ned was the glue for any broadcast team he was a part of. ESPN or CBS, Ned always had a way to hold the viewer, compare his day to the current at the time and always remembered others during the broadcast that may have been ill or suffering.
Ned will be missed.
I love how this came to happen.
With one lap to go in the Daytona 500, CBS-TV producer Bob Stenner hits his 'all call' key and barks "Everybody lay out !... Ned, be a dad, and call your boy home." You know what happens next...
"Well, Alright!" Ned exclaims. "It's the Dale and Dale show, and you know which Dale I'm pulling for..."
RIP to one of the best broadcasters and best friends this sport has ever known.
Ok, Iโm going on the record.
โข The All-Star race needs to be back a Charlotte
โข The Clash needs to be back at Daytona
โข Both races need to go back to a simpler format
โข If the biggest name in the sport doesnโt make it into either race, then oh well, thatโs on them and you donโt need 40 car fields for these events either
There I said it.
