That's 29 tracks and 1,684 garage stalls. 44 of them are at Talladega. Phelps said they found only 11 stalls using a pull down rope tied in a knot. And only one was tied into a noose – the one discovered in Wallace's garage."

When he comes out and calls anyone that is skeptical 'simple-minded' then yes, he should be viewed as a shitheel. Especially when he's taking active steps to go on shit like The View and Don Lemon to sit there and milk as much attention as possible without waiting on any sort of investigation to blast away at people who disagree with him.
Yup - shitheel. But you're welcome to applaud the guy for his remarkable bravery in the face of...a knot.
For what it's worth - that loop knot with the thick handle is gonna be a DAMN good pull down. Nice comfortable hand-hold for those times the rope's sideways and you're frustrated trying to find a good grip in the loop so you just grab the knot and yank.
That 'noose' loop is gonna be a hell of a lot more practical than the small loops with the little club knots on top of them or a straight rope, that's for sure.
P.S. It's still not a noose. Maybe it identifies as one and that explains the confusion.
