The only ones that aren't are 16 year old kids that have no idea what it's like in the real world.

The whole format is silly. What's the point of giving a car away that the "winner" doesn't even want?

I saw Jack Johnson driving down the street in a Ferrari California. The idea that if he made the All-Star game he'd give a **** about a Kia is pushing it a little far. Not that it makes it any more unwatchable. The horrifically bad interviews and useless commentary does most of the work.

Everyone just looks uncomfortable about the whole thing. At least when the car was secret you could have a little fun with it. Now that it's all blatant it's just another boring useless all-star commercial tie-in.

All I care about is that Quick doesn't get hurt.
