Darlington to honor Dale Earnhardt, Sr., Dale Earnhardt, Jr. with dedication of Turn 3 suite towers

Kind of conflicted about this. I know folks like to name stuff these days, but I just don't know about Jr. Never been more than an average driver really. But has been most popular driver for a million years in a row. But that is more folks hangin on to his dad through him than anything else. If his last name were Smith, and had the results he has had over the last decade or so, he would struggle to find a ride in the truck series. Pretty sure it didn't come out the way he intended, but at the heart of the matter, Kevin Harvick was spot on with his comments two weeks ago. I guess you can name things after him because he is a link to his father, but that is about the only reason.
