Dale gives his take on the situation and how it was handled. He is not against the sport or NASCAR in general, but is amazed that the leaders of the sports basically just want to move on and get to the race. Dale poses the question - If you had tickets to the race today and were sitting in that general area where the crash was, would you still attend? Dale gets reaction on the phones from some NASCAR fans.

    02/24/2013

    Dale is solo on this gloomy Sports Sunday a.m. but he is in a great mood because of the leaked information that came out yesterday regarding a plan for the NHL to realign their "conferences". The best part about the plan according to Dale is that Detroit would now be in the East, and therefore the same conference as the Bruins. Dale also hits on the 1st Grapefruit League game for the Sox yesterday - yes it's game #1 and basically meaningless, but Dale found himself watching the whole thing! Also, Manti Te'o spoke yesterday to the media at the combine and we get Dale's take.

Minor Details Ep. 49: Managerial development with Torey Lovullo and Arnie Beyeler

By and large, the focus of development in the minor leagues is on players.
