Earnhardt Jr. to leave DEI
#11
Wow, Not that I think jr is dumb, but his fans are. Daddy must not have been to confident in him. His daddy was a good driver, but I can't see him doing anything above and beyond. He sure isn't living up to the legend. I guess its not about good drivers anymore. Kind of like on here. A lot of followers and a lot of Monkey see, Monkey do.

Nascar is becoming close to being the WWF or whatever it is now. Its not about racing like it used to be, which really sucks. Think about it though, Jr without the name, would you pull for him if his last name was Gordon?
ILL ADMIT I AM A JUNIOR FAN.... AND YOU KNOW I PROBABLY LIKE HIM MORE BECAUSE OF HIS DAD.... BUT I BELIEVE HE CAME OUT OF BUSCH SERIES FAR TOO SOON.... WHEN HE WAS DRIVING THE #3 ACDELCO CAR... HE WAS DOING DAMN GOOD.... BUT I AGREE HIS DAD IS WHAT GOT HIM 90% OF HIS FANS

Hmm... maybe the price on the DEI Inc. Spoiler for the Intimidator Silverado's will drop some... Who am I kidding, now it's going to be limited edition. Crap, I shoulda picked one up when it was only $900 bucks [/sarcasm]

Well, I think Gordon fans are dumb.....so there.
j/k
Seriously though, calling all Jr. fans dumb is crazy.
Jr. has a decent personality compared to some of these jackass little punks that are running in Nascar these days. I think that gets him some fans right there. No doubt about it though a lot of his fans are carry overs from his father. I am a fan of his for both reasons. I also like Tony Stewart, Jeff Gordon(when he isn't whining
), Kevin Harvick is ok, Mark Martin(cool old school dude
), and a couple others that I don't keep track off as much.
I also think Jr. is a great driver but, right now might not have the best equipment compared to some other teams. There are times when I feel maybe he could put some more effort forward too since equipment isn't the entire equation.
I've been watching Nascar for probably about 15-20 years now and they've definately changed(some good, some bad).

Yep, RCR would be the natural place you'd think he would go. It'd be nice to see a Childress/Earnhardt combination again.
