Hamlin ain't my favorite but I have to admit I like him better everytime people hate on him.
It is just fun to see people so bothered and the way he handles it can be funny at times

I feel the same way as Greg about Hamlin. Which is kinda surprising to me, because I rarely soften my stance on a driver once I observe him acting like an entitled bitch and/or a two-faced hypocrite, which are character traits that I dislike intensely. And there is no denying that Denny Hamlin behaved like an entitled pr*ck who constantly bullied younger or less experienced competitors, starting fairly early in his career. Also, he has a penchant for saying really stupid, outlandish things, which often make him look bad for a long time after.

So it was easy for me to hate on Denny Hamlin... he deserved it... he earned my disdain.

However, in recent years I find that my opinion of Hamlin has evolved to a certain degree. As co-owner of 23XI, he has shown a dedication to the sport that runs deep. He has definitely shown an extra facet that I never knew he had. I respect that. And he's outspoken and candid, usually in a good way... generally not the self aggrandizing BS from his early and mid-career periods.

So I'm not a fan of DH, but I won't be cheering or gloating if Pious Joe says, "We love Denny, he is family," as he stabs him in the back.
