It was that, or grab a fiddle, and play with the band while the Titanic sinks.;)
 
So if he goes to the 99, what happens to Frankie Staaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhdaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhd?
 
He is going to walk behind Jack,and flip people off for him.:P
 
Kenseth's team seems pretty solid to me, one of the best pit crews on the circuit. I know there's more to it than 13.5 second stops, but Kenseth has more wins for Roush this year than any of the others, even if they did do it kinda quietly. Who knows, I'm done worrying about it, I'll just buy a dang program for Daytona. But OMG, can you just IMAGINE the radio chatter if Stahhhdahhhd were to ever crew chief with Warrrrrrrrd? :P

I find it entertaining enough to listen to Warrrrrrd talk to Tommy freakin' Baldwin (who I love). He's got as thick a New Yawk accent as I've ever heard. :)

Jeff Burton says relationship with Stoddard was 'stale'
By JIM UTTER

Winston Cup driver Jeff Burton said the hiring of Paul Andrews as his new crew chief was prompted because the relationship with former crew chief Frank Stoddard had "gone stale."

Andrews left his job as Steve Park's crew chief at Dale Earnhardt Inc. Wednesday to take the same position with Burton.

"He's a great crew chief," Burton said of Stoddard, who had worked with Burton since January 1999. "There's nothing wrong with Frank's crew chiefing ability, it's just that we've gone stale together. I guess that's the best way to put it, we've gone stale together."

Burton said the change was made quickly when Andrews became available, but the discussions about whether to make changes in the organization had been contemplated for some time.

"You don't go to California this year and run as bad as we ran and you don't go to Darlington in the first race and Texas without thinking, ‘Man, we've got to do something,' particularly when we didn't run well at those tracks the year before," Burton said.

"Initially, we thought about trying to figure out how to bring somebody else into the company that could help us, but there was nothing there for us. We didn't wake up yesterday and say, ‘We've got to make this change.' When it did happen, it happened very fast but it was a long process."
 
man i thought he was a good crew chief after the winston but oh well burton will see what hes missin of gaining
 
I thought the #99 team was doing okay this season, but if chemistry is stale, i guess it's time to move on.

So does this mean the #1 team is looking for a new crew chief now?
