My thought's as well. Oh well, my grandparents and mom and dad all live close to me and they have it so I'm getting my mom to tape it for me and I'll watch it tomorrow

so i found it. you have to have a cable box to get CMT. as we are all poor (see also: cheap) we have cable ran from the one box to our rooms. hoping for a replay as the main TV is taken.

keep me updated if it plays again.

i may buy it if i can get a non-homer opinion on it.

I went to the movies and saw it. It's the best out of all of the other documentries. It really gives you a back behind the scenes look of Dale's life. You would probably really enjoy it. Somewhere on CMT you can actually watch a good portion of it, I'll try to find the links to it

DALE THE MOVIE: Coming to CMT on September 4

All right, go here and click around and you'll find it. I think you can click on trailer from this page and you'll be able to see a good part of it. It's been 5 months since I've watched it at the movies so I'm not sure what all is left out. But you really should get it, it's pretty good

Did they really have to make a movie of it? It wasn't like he did it saving someone's life.

Geez, lighten up, he was a true american hero. The Dale that no one thinks of is the charitable one. There are numerous stories of him doing good deeds and helping the sick and local churches that needed money. He actually had a job outside of racing to. He got up every morning at 4:30 and worked on the farm. He never let fame get the best of him. My dad talked to him numerous times and he was just a joy to talk to. Even a non Dale fan appreciated the things he did off the track

I'll give you that. I'm not a fan of him or Nascar.

I was actually watching the race when he died, too. That's when I lost most interest in the sport.
