Tony just reminds me of Dale Sr. He has since he came up to the cup. It's not his fault he is driving a Yota

 

I was asked by a few guys today if I was pissed... I said not at all...

I watched a few post race interviews last night... Poor Ryan was numb... I bet he still hasn't slept.

 

I still consider Ryan to be one the "kids". They all like him, he drives for Penske and he is part of the "Young Guns". Has won quite a few races too. Nothing against him, just don't think he is not part of the "establishment". The only reason I like Jr is because of his dad and I'd like to see Teresa eat crow. DEI is his namesake, not hers.

 

I'm not a Jr fan.... if he wasn't Dale's son he would be working at Chuck E Cheese's like Kerry....

No offense to Jr Nation...

I was a Earnhardt fan for many years... dropped him after #7 in 94 for Bobby Labonte, and never left JGR.... and I still have a spot on my favorite's bench for Bobby.

 

Bobby is geniunly a nice guy, has always been one of the favorites. Every since I went to Martinsville (the year he won the Championship). He was at the souviner trailer. Was very nice to everyone, so is Jeff Burton.

Actually, I was walking the 2 miles back to car after the race with my son on my shoulders and Jr was in a minivan trying to leave. My son spotted him and he rolled down his window and talked to us while we walked beside him to the other parking lot. Thought that was cool.

Do agree with you about being where he is because of his dad though. Even though he is getting better, but he never would have gotten up there that fast any other way.

Hell, his sister is the best driver in the family.

 

The only person in racing I had a chance to hang out that was nicer than Bobby was John Force. I had Budweiser Pit Passes and sat at Kenny Bernstein's pit... and when I was walking out I ran into John andhim and I chatted all the way back to the staging area.

I totally agree with you about his sister being a great driver...
