Completely Ridiculous

Last night the NASCAR race was postponed until Tuesday morning because of rain. I was disappointed because they didn't get to race but I realize that you can't control nature and stuff is going to happen. I'm a huge NASCAR fan so don't think that by me not being completely irate like some people were, doesn't make me a true NASCAR fan. I just know that there's way more important things in life than watching a race and to say some of the things I was seeing people say on twitter is just completely ridiculous and stupid. I can understand people being extremely upset if they went to the race, spent money and time go to it and then weren't able to go back tomorrow to see it. Yea, then I would be quite upset because of that.

I'm passionate about my sports and yea I wasn't happy about not getting to see the Bengals play live but you never saw me as upset as some of the people got last night about not being able to watch the race tomorrow and these people didn't even go to the race. They should be thankful that they're missing the race because they have to work and not because they can't afford to pay for cable because they don't have a job or because they're really sick and just don't feel like watching it. People who have always said that they're Christians and are always talking about something that has to do with God, were cussing mother nature (aka God) last night because of it raining, my mouth hit the floor when I saw this. There is absolutely no reason to say that even if you are mad, especially when you talk about yourself being such a big believer in God. I'm a Christian and I'll admit I'm not anywhere near close to being a perfect one but I also don't go and constantly say what a perfect Christian I am because I'm far from it. That's not even half of the horrible things I saw people saying on twitter about the race being postponed. I promise, you will live even though you don't get to watch one NASCAR race, the world will go on. If the people I saw getting so mad over not getting to watch the race then I would hate to see what they're like when something really important in their life goes wrong.

Maybe I'm just like this because of the stuff that's been going on the last few years in my life but I realize what's important and I'm not going to get extremely mad over missing a race. Yea, I won't be happy but my life will go on and in the big scheme of my life, it won't have a direct impact on it. You can think what you want about me but because I'm not irate about it being postponed doesn't mean that I'm not a true fan of the sport. I'm a die hard NASCAR and football fan, I'm getting there with golf too but I realize my priorities in life.
