Shocked, Shocked I say, that a Nascar driver would use a racial slur and get fired.

I don’t know man. That wasn’t just dropping an N bomb. That was a cliff notes manifesto.

Let’s let this play out.

Wait..... You mean it wasn’t an attempt at racial intimidation or a false flag?  It was most likely and innocent interpretation and a simple misunderstanding? You don’t say.

No idea why we wasted time waiting for the investigation. It was obvious what happened.

There’s a video out there where someone is touring the garages and you can see the pull ropes on the stall doors. You could construe it as a noose made out of thin rope. I wonder if it was a good idea to just let an investigation play out. Crazy I know.

I had no expectation of Arnold admitting he was wrong, but it was a surprise to see him try to weasel out of it.

It’s a little early to say he won’t admit he was wrong or is a weasel. Let’s let this play out.

Good call.

I don’t know, was that plane flying the red neck racist flag over the track with “defund nascar” there since October 2019? Cause I have zero fucks to give if the rope was there or not. Means shut to me when some asshole pays thousands to fly a flag behind a plane or some asshole kid says Bubba should be drug by the rope around the pits. Trump tweeted a video of a black guy punching a white guy this morning. We couldn’t be more fucked up as a society if we had all been having babies with our cousins and sisters for three generations. Those horses have run out of the barn and it’s too late. Some of em have three eyes and are running sideways and getting votes for high office. It’s fucked up guys.

Damn. That is a vicious Page 1 KO 

So tl dr Nigel got pwned and is not holding himself to the same standard he does others when he digs his heels in on an argument?

The result is a good one (I think). It is unfortunate that social media is such a large part of the news cycle that this has become a game of gotcha. Not talking about here, though I suppose one could argue it's just a microcasm of the bigger picture.

Nigel is autistic, guys, go easy on him.

I suspect that 98% of Nigel's posts are made with a smirk on his face. But I don't know him so I can't confirm.

A noose is a noose. Garage number four had a noose in it. Looks like NASCAR has to make another guideline that states you can’t make a garage pull that looks like a noose.

The Wallace quote I read pretty much made it clear that garage pull was unique to all the others he’s seen in the sport. A noose is a noose folks.

On mobile so I can’t see the image, but it’s a good bet whatever is posted is neither an admission he was wrong, nor is it an apology to KL.

It happens to be a completely unrelated image of a screengrab from an episode of Between Two Ferns featuring Ben Stiller.

He's fucking autistic as fuck, guys.

I’d actually have to be offended to want any sort of an apology, lol.

I do think it’s funny though we’ve come full circle on who’s gone full goose.....

I have to admit I prefer “Full Surrender Nigel” over “Emoji Nigel”.

As a former boy scout and firefighter, I can say with a good level of confidence that that type of knot is used for one thing and one thing only. And it’s not to close a garage door.

That being said, I don’t think this was aimed at anyone or meant to be hateful or racist. BUT...why would anyone know how to tie it in a noose?

It’s a good thing there’s an investigation to find out what transpired and when. #SurrenderArnold

Regardless, the knot/noose was there in stall 4 in October of 2019. It wasn’t put there last weekend. #surrenderarnold
