I’m either the lazy man or the modern man.

I’m not sure which.

I’m convinced I am the sole reason for the saturation of commercials during the NASCAR race broadcasts. I break the age old mold of the television viewer, so advertisers have to throw a lot of mud on my wall to get some of it to stick.

I watch NASCAR races on my own personal time-delay. I’ll pause the DVR and then play catch up throughout the race, gleefully whisking through commercials, unless I see Denny Hamlin racing Marty down the hall. Or, a UPS or NAPA commercial with my all-time favorite washed-up, sell-out driver, Dale Jarrett. Sometimes I’ll forget to fast forward and catch some new commercials.

On a perfect Sunday afternoon, I’m watching the last 15 minutes of the race live. Sometimes I fall asleep and sometimes I’ve got to tend the chicken cooking on the grill, so I’ll get up to an hour or so behind. (Which freaks me out because I pressure myself to update the race results stats for my NASCAR Points Standings Widgets post-haste.)

I’ve only listened to the broadcast on radio while watching the race on television once. I really dug it. But, I would rather not miss the television commentary more than I want to hear the radio play-by-play. I suppose I could turn up the radio during commercials, but that wouldn’t work with my commercial skipping tactic of pausing the DVR and then playing catch up.

How do you NASCAR? What’s your Lazy Man’s Way To NASCAR?”
