Well everyone seemed to think I was talking out my behind about comments tony george made back in december at a sports business forum in regards to canning the irl if it wasn't profitable by 2013. But the above article confirms it quoting tony george.

I have a hard time believing they'll make it with .15 tv ratings and seats that would be empty except for marlboro and honda buying free tickets. I'm not seeing anything visionary or revolutionary that is going to drive interest back.

The song "The Final Countdown" is playing in my head.
