The current youth wave coming into the Cup series has a chance to be something special. Larson (I know he's been there a while but he's still fairly young), Elliott, Blaney, Wallace, Bowman, Byron, Suarez and Jones are all highly talented drivers. If NASCAR can stay out of it's own way it could lead to a resurgance.

Yeah Black Panther is like Trump. The bad guy is the open borders globalist left. Wakanda has border walls. The country is conservative, anti-globalist and nationalist.

This was my problem with the movie is it was overtly political.


It wasn't the worst Marvel movie I've seen, that honor goes to the first Thor movie for me. This movie just didn't live up to expectations for me. I wish I had waited to see it at home vs. opening weekend in the theater. Not bad but sometimes you just want to watch an action movie and forget about politics. I think I wanted more fight scenes and car chases maybe versus discussions about society.

I thought the first Thor move was funny as chit. I am not a super hero movie guru though.

I like most of the other Marvel movies but I've always thought the Thor storyline was dull.

Black Panther is a great film.

The first Tho had it's moments but was blah for the most part.
