Re: NASCAR thread
Terry stepped out and was realisticly uncompetetive for the last few years. Don't get me wrong, I like Terry. But, Kyle stepped in, and all of a sudden the car was fast. I'm just saying the equipment is obviously good, now they have a driver who's competetive and can finish races.

BTW, my opinion differs with Dale Jarrett. He took a bunch of money as a hired gun but NASCAR actually made a good decision and limited the number of champion provisionals he could use. Retirement has never been mentioned and he never shopped himself around like Mark did....

I agree about Mark. I also have no problem with him going to Chevy. The only exception would have been to a Toyota like Jarrett did. Speaking of Jarrett. Rumor is he and UPS are not happy(no surprise) and are thinking of leaving their contract with team Waltrip. And for those Earnhardt fans who have jumped ship and now dispise him, in my opinion you weren't a true fan of his if you are going to jeer him now because he joined a class organization in Hendricks. And I'm sorry the whining that Hendricks is an ex con who was paroled by a good ole boy president isn't going to cut it. The man treats his drivers, team, and friends with class. |

Re: NASCAR thread
I saw an old 60 Minutes episode tonight on the CMT channel that was on Earnhardt Jr. . During one part of the interview he said quote "I'd rather be on a mediocre team with people I know and care about (DEI at the time in 2004 when he was sucking) than win championships on a team I don't know and could care less about". Hmmmm, I guess he's changed his priorites now.

:LAUGH: Just kidding, I completely agree. I think the only other driver out there that can match Martin's class and docility would be Bobby Labonte. Nothing negative to say about either one of them.

I totally agree with the last part of your comments. I'll throw in Adam Petty as well, not so much as for him being a force in the series, but as member of an admired family with the potential of being a champion. As far as Mark and Bill jumping ship, I won't say I was happy about them leaving the blue oval contengent. Mark was suppoed to retire (again), and I'm not so sure it was a $ driven motivation for him to make the surprise move. For Bill (and we'll look past his Chevy drives of recent), I think he was motivated more by the challenge of a new team, new manufacturer (Dodge), and the possibility of (probably) having either his own team or at least a level of involvement that went beyond driving; management, training, etc., that drove him. Very glad to see him n the Wood Bros. Ford.

Martin is a race car driver, plain and simple. He doesn't care what it is, he just enjoys racing. That's why he's been so successful in so many types of racing. Unfortunately the demands on his schedule made it so that he just couldn't enjoy racing, so he decided to make a change. He doesn't need the money, he just wanted a way to get back to what he enjoys. |

He may not need the money, but he took it and could have been like JR., looked for deals with Ford owners instead of the deal with Chevy. But NOOOOO, he bolts and forgets all the ties & loyalty with Ford & Roush. Do I sound bitter, He** yes. Sorry if my opinion bothers anyone, but I hope he hits the wall each week (Don't want him or any other driver injured, just out of the race in the first 50 laps).

Re: NASCAR thread
I just want to see if the Jr. fans will still throw stuff on the track when Gordon wins. That is just so childish in my opinion. I'm not a Jr. fan but I bet he will do much better with Hendricks then he ever did with DEI. DEI has a lot of issues in teir orginization and Jr. knew it. I think it's a good thing he got out of there. I can see Jr. winning the championship coming within the next few years.

Re: NASCAR thread
...at which time I will no longer be an official Roushketeer!! Word is Kyle has a far worse disposition than Kurt and with the big blow out between Jack and Kurt I just can't see this happening. Roush would be far better off trying to get Ryan Newman from Penske in 08 in my opinion (and then I can wear my Ryan Newman Ford jacket from his rookie season again! And yes it still fits...I was fat then too!).
