Nope, just an observation. Just because you don't like or see something in other's interests, doesn't make it stupid or unskillful to those that do. Just trying to draw a parallel.
I can draw one to benchrest shooting. I don't see any skill at all in setting up the gun in rock solid rests, and shooting something a long ways away, but using a high power, quality scope. But I do know there is some required somewhere, because I sure can't just jump up and do it. Just like I don't see how Bullseye pistol is so difficult, but I struggle to hit 70 in slowfire. I mean, all you do is stand there and shoot a black circle at 50 feet.
Likewise, I cannot do 205 MPH four wide into Turn 1 at Michigan Speedway. On TV they look just like they are floating around. Looks like they are driving on the interstate. Standing next to the fence, its kinda like 'HOLY CRAP! Those guys are MOVING'
Likewise, the San Antonio guy hit a 3 pointer with 5 seconds left to win the game. I can shoot three pointers, he was wide open, had a clear shot with plenty of time. Could I have one it? Nope. I am quite sure there I would have choked.
Just because you don't precieve skill, doesn't pean it ain't there.
EDIT: oh, and while you could probablt argue that drivers aren't skillful, aren't athletes, I'd like to see you do the same of the pit crew.
EDIT 2: and to get back on track, I sure hope Detriot wins. Not only because they are the home team, but that Argentinian foreign exchange student has been up playing hs guy on the Spurs. He's gotta lose. I refuse to lose to a foreigner (At least, this particular foreigner).
