    WHat was the Indy 500 ratings?????

  4. Hulman, we should have the Indy 500 ratings with our sports data on Friday (or perhaps next Monday because of yesterday's holiday).

    NASCAR? I just don't get it. It is totally boring. And the Coke 600 is the MOST boring due to the fact it is the longest. At least the Indy 500 is over in a reasonable amount of time in the afternoon…….Not that I would watch any of the other shows listed here either……
