Gene Lyons tackles spectator sports
snip

That said, I have zero interest in NASCAR, the latest quasi-athletic fad attracting basically the same audience that gets off on professional wrestling. And I don’t feel the least bit guilty about it, either. Making an infernal racket with internal combustion engines has long been the favorite outdoor pastime of the influential Moron American community, but why would anybody pay to hear it?
