Drivers blow off interviews

Hell some of these teenagers has more nastier mouth than mine, now I'm not sayin it's right but don't say we should watch our language cause of the teenagers, now if you tell me no foul language because we want to run a classy forum then so be it.
 
A person should have a little respect for other posters. Or maybe you would like to turn this board into something lime TR or the Hole.
 
Thanks DeeDee and Gollum. A discussion of racing can be fun and informative and people can learn a bit about racing from each other. If someone wants to use filthy language they should use it on a site that is made for that purpose.
 
... another reason why this forum is going all to hell! SAMCURRY, SAVE US!!!! ^_^
 
Bad Lanquage? I don't see any bad lanquage! Some of the folks here need to realize that there is a FIRST Amendment and they also need to realize what it took to get and also keep this priviledge! Sports are Sports >>> People have their favorites >> Thats part of the deal! Part of why so many folks watch sports like Nascar! Poking a little fun at a Rival should not hurt anyones feelings!

Considering this was a Monday race and they have a shorter week by going to Phoenix later in the week, NASCAR shoudl give them a pass. But what about Harvick blowing off TNT?

I dont blame Kevin. I would be upset, too.

I do, he was acting like a spoiled baby. His comment of "It's all over now" & declining to be interviewed seemed to me that he conceded the championship to Matt. I wonder what Richard Childress is thinking? I wonder what Dale Sr. would think?

:rolleyes: Here we go again....
Click to expand...

whatever...

But there is a old saying that applies to Mr. Harvick. Quiters never win & winners never quit. Matt hasn't got anything locked up yet & Mr. Happy has 'thown in the towel'. :cuckoo:
Click to expand...
I'm sure he was disappointed. It was a long stretch before the race and now it looks even more impossible. Kenseth didn't talk to the reporters when he crashed at Kansas did he? I guess he has a bad attitude too. Oh wait, its different with Kenseth, I know. :rolleyes: Its ok with Kenseth to be upset when he wrecks but Harvick should be happy when he wrecks or has a disappointed day. Er wait... [/b][/quote]
Umm, after the race Matt talked with reporters...just not while he was trying to focus on the repairs needed to get him back out on the track and racing again. Nice try though 66... :tomato:
 
Sorry Dude the First Admendment does not and I repeat. Does not give you the right to say anythng you want anytime you want to say it.

Happy29, you should be banned from the forum for using such language.......and if you arent I'm going. This is not the first time you have used foul language on the forum.
Click to expand...

Oh good greif it's only a word,it can't hurt you. Sticks and stones maybe,but not words.
Click to expand...
Let's get something straight. Is this a racing forum or is it an X-rated forum. Is it only for adults or is it for all including children. Happy29 may have been here for a long time but that doesn't mean diddly squat to me. How he would last on any forum with such a foul mouth is beyond me. :rolleyes: [/b][/quote]
If you want me banned, start a petition do whatever the heck you want, because frankly, I dont give a damn.
 
You should be happy muggle not, Happy29 left. Go ahead and throw your damn party if you wanted him out that freeking bad.
 
I dout it. He has said worst things. He will be back. He is a pretty cool poster when he watches his mouth. :lol:
 
What I don't understand is why it's not okay to use swear words here in their full spelling, but is okay to use a swear word if you replace one of the letters with a asterisk. It means the same thing to me.
 
I don't now if this has been posted already or not as I am not going to read non-topic related posts that have nothing to do with this thread. These forums could use better moderation but enough of that.

Back on topic...

Members of the print media were enraged to learn following today's race at Atlanta that second-place finisher Tony Stewart and highest-finishing rookie Jamie McMurray both blew off ther post race press conferences. McMurray said he had to catch a flight. It was announced McMurray was excused. Stewart said he had a previous engagement to attend. This comes on the heels of the Kansas race where second-place finisher Bill Elliott failed to appear before the media. NASCAR said after Kansas that fines could be imposed if it happened again. NASCAR's Jim Hunter went into the Winston Cup garage after the race today searching for Tony Stewart. The driver of the #20 Home Depot Chevrolet was nowhere to be found. Ironically while third-place finishing Jimmie Johnson, driver of the Lowe's Chevrolet, sat and fielded questions, Stewart, sponsored by Atlanta-based Home Depot quickly exited the premises. Hunter said he would look into the matter this week. Stewart did field an interview with TNT after the race

Hunter to talk to Stewart about press conference
By Ryan Smithson, Turner Sports Interactive
October 30, 2003
4:28 PM EST (2128 GMT)
AVONDALE, Ariz. -- NASCAR plans to meet with Tony Stewart to discuss why he skipped the mandatory post-race press conference after the Bass Pro Shops MBNA 500 at Atlanta Motor Speedway.

NASCAR VP of Communications Jim Hunter said that he will try to talk to Stewart "as soon as he gets here" on Friday at Phoenix International Raceway.

Winston Cup cars are scheduled to practice at 12:20 p.m. ET.

Stewart finished second on Monday at Atlanta, but he skipped the post-race press conference, which includes the top three finishers as well as the top rookie.

Sometimes, drivers are excused from the press conferences, but Stewart didn't give an explanation as to why he skipped the one in Atlanta.

Hunter said that he will try to find out why.

"We have, from time to time, have to talk to drivers find out why, and try to make them understand what got us here," Hunter said.

"I don't think he'll give me an unsatisfactory response."

Bill Elliott, who finished second at Kansas four races ago, who was not punished after failing to show up at the post-race press conference.
 
I seen that on Nascar.com. But Stewart hasn't been the only one who would talk or go to the confrence.

Actually, the word is in common usage among other message boards. Another one of the many terms Hap has brought to the forum.

Just my humble opinion here Highboy. You are a good poster and I admit I am the king of 'threadjackism'...but in no way do CW's remarks warrant a moderator. Particularly given that he started this thread. I know you have a forum board or websight or something, but tonight you are coming off as power-mad or something. Just relax man, this is meant constructively. Your remarks are taking these thing as far off topic as anything else is.

Besides, I dont read anything in the usage guide regarding this anyway.

Ok, I am out of here ,just my two cents. :cheers:
 
If Highboy were a mod, he'd be one hell of a fascist. You know I have many respect for Highboy, I think he's a great poster and senior member of the forum. But he's just winging it right now, thinking he's the owner of the board, IT'S A PUBLIC FORUM MAN. I saw him try to get a message about the Marlins winning the World Series deleted because he claimed "it was wasting bandwidth." and I see a lot members want a lot of members reprimanded for petty things like this.

Now I understand why Happy29 left.
 
Actually, (and I hate to take this further after trying to get it back on topic) while I respect 97forever though don't always agree, I find that Coffee Warlord needs to learn a lesson or two.

One... Don't put words in Happy29's mouth.
Two... Public forum or not. You are bound by the owner and appointed mods judgment. If you or I cross the line, we suffer the penalties impossed. I was simply trying to get the thread back on topic. But feel free to thow a hissy fit if you need.
 
You are bound by the mods judgment also, now if you really wanted to bring this thread back on topic, you wouldve done it a few pages before this one. Talk to the other members who took this thread off-topic bout that too, they'd love to hear your lecture.

I'm done as far as this thread is concerned.
 
PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, WOULD YOU ALL JUST GROW UP!!!!!!!!!
