You and others have  fallen for the press and other Junior haters on that line, It's old and over used. He can't drive when the car falls apart, could you?  But who gets the loudest cheers at a race? ( I know I sound like still a Jr fan but don't like him being kicked around or any other driver having such said about him)

He's got the best car he has ever driven. When he was with DEI he whined about his equipment and that they didn't put enough money into R&D. When he went to Hendrick he could no longer make that claim. Hendrick is one of the best if not the best car builder in Nascar. At some point you have to stop blaming everyone else and point the finger at the driver. With Junior it always seems to be someone else's fault and never his own. Besides, who's fault is it when you miss your pit twice in the same race?

Whjo are you talking about?  Kyle has  never won a cup championship. Now if Gordon that is a different story.. I think he's a tad frustrated this season (mark got the cars LOL) and happy being married and a father. I Like Jeff.

I'm talking about Jeff.

Kyle Petty only has 8 wins lifetime. Junior couldn't beat Ricky Bobby  hysterical.gif hysterical.gif hysterical.gif

lol i knew i would get it on that subject but it's ok
i just dont see what the big deal is about him he's not even that good,,i guess the same could be said for matt also.
Believe me i get alot of sh## for liking him but he is my driver. they all have their  good days and bad.
and yes i watch every single race i know about problems with the cars matt has had his share lol.
1 thing race fans will never agree on is WHO IS THE BEST!!!
i do not never have never will like jeff or jimmy but they are very good i have to give them that.
my point is they are not the only drivers in this sport there are others  that are good also maybe not as good as those 2 but close 2 it.

i do agree with you on 1 thing about mark i did like him at 1 time but not anymore. even though he sems to be doing better than ever.

One thing is for certain...in every sport...you have your front runners.  NBA there is Shaq and Kobe.  NFL Tom Brady, Randy Moss, Peyton Manning.  MLB Jeter, A-Rod,etc...You will always have the arrogant ones, the quiet ones, the bad boys, the good boys.

There will always be the people who jump on the bandwagon for who is the latest and greatest....then you have people who have their favorites for personal reasons.  Maybe they are from their hometown, maybe they are an underdog, or maybe they are the hardest working person on the team but don't get any recognition.

I think the expectation of junior IS to be a great champion like his dad.  The fact that he is not having a great career paves the way for haters.  You can blame it on multiple reasons or one reason.  It is not his fault that the public compares him to his daddy.  I don't have any feelings towards his driving ability either way.

I do not have a particular driver that I root for.  I am on a fantasy league and I have multiple drivers that I have to root for every race.  I like NASCAR in general.  Even though alot of the tracks are boring with no crashes..there are some exciting moments.
