Funny stuff! Kurt calls out the Hendrick 'pretty boys', mainly Jimmie Johnson. No doubt Jimmie is due for some Kurt payback. It's just a question of when. The start of the Chase would be good IMO. Some quotes from Kurt & Jimmie.....

"The Hendrick guys are pretty boys," Busch said Friday.
"Even if I had a shot at the [No.] 5 car, pretty boy Kasey Kahne got picked over me," Busch said.
“He didn’t intentionally try and wreck us at Pocono, but it ended up that way. There might be some of that coming from my side of it. I may not intentionally try to wreck him, but we’ve got a high car count of wrecked cars over at our shop, and those guys on the 48 [of Johnson], and even [Johnson teammate] Jeff Gordon, with what he did to us at Sonoma, it’s been definitely a one-way street.”
“The guys at Hendrick are pretty boys and get on People magazine covers and that’s their job,” he said. “My job is to go out and race cars and that’s what I focus on.
“I like to race the cars and race them hard, race them smart and I feel like that if what happened last week, … if the roles we’re reversed and [my] 2 car wrecked the 48, I would have been hung. I would have been lynched at the gates for wrecking a four-time champion.
“But if the roles really were reversed, I wouldn’t have bumped the 48 in that fashion and both of us would have continued on and ended up with good results.”
Johnson wants to settle any differences with Busch, saying: "I hope everything goes away. I have nothing against him."
Johnson left the media center Friday just as Busch was arriving. And Busch had a message for Johnson.
"I asked him, 'Do I need a dust pan and a broom to clean up your mess?' ''
“We have the crew guys, we have our sponsors, and we have my close friends that all have the opinions. Ultimately, it comes down to the drivers down on the track knowing when someone crosses the line or not. Johnson and I are fine. It’s tough when we have three [wrecked cars] against nothing right now.”
