Someone forgot where we race next week

Who exactly said it was different for Junior?

And when exactly did I bash another driver? You yourself picked on Robbie. I suppose that's okay too?

Again, where is it written that I must have succinctly written, thoughtul responses to obnoxious driver-bashing posts at 1 a.m.?

You said it was just a racing deal, but insinuate that the other incidents were dirty driving.

When a driver does something stupid, I say it. Doesn't matter if it's Jr or Carl Long. But like I said, if it's just a racing deal let's see if you feel the same way when the Burtons exact their revenge on Jr in the same way. 20-1 says you'll call them out for dirty driving.

Uhh...hello? You're the one that just called me out for not having a thoughtful response.
 
Paul, we all know that if this was reversed Ward hit Junior. This board would have been on fire last night with all kinds of Junior fans bashing Ward. We have seen it in the past. I guess one more thing most Junior fans have in common is a short memory or should I say selective memory.

In case anyone is wondering, It's a fairly safe bet that Ward is smart enough to wait for his paybacks until the heat is off and Junior has as much to lose as Ward did last night.
 
Dude, I typed in my smilies and maybe a couple of other short responses last night, right after the race, and you weren't even here. Why are you attacking me?!!! I didn't say anything bad to you or anyone else. You're saying this stuff to me, presumably clearheaded on a Sunday afternoon.

Why do you insist on forcing me to defend myself when I didn't even bash anyone? Should I have donned a hairshirt last night and made amends to everyone here for the filthy driving of my favorite driver?! As if anyone else around here would bother to do that. I didn't even think it was intentional. Sometimes, a tap like that just gets the air off and the guy keeps going. Sometimes, it doesn't. That's why they call it a racing deal.

And, for the record, I didn't try to insinuate anything about any other driver. Unless you meant Robbie Gordon, in which case, I was just agreeing with what you said! I congratulated Jeff Gordon and didn't gloat about Junior's success, considering I bet most people didn't figure he would finish that well. I guess two top tens in two weeks still means he's the alcoholic, talentless son of Dale Sr. Soooo sick of this...
 
No on is attacking you, you need to step back and take a break.

I'm not forcing you to do anything...if you don't like hearing "bad things" about your "favorite driver" then don't read threads where people might be critical of him.
 
I could avoid every Junior-specific thread from here to eternity if I chose, but I would still hear stuff like "The Inebriator" and crap like that. Face it, you people love to talk trash about Dale Jr. And if you're gonna do it, you should face up to the fact that you're doing it. As a general rule, I don't bash drivers. And I'm getting pretty damn disgusted by people who insist on attacking me for who I choose to root for.

Thanks a lot, Paul. I was in a good mood before I logged on today.
 
I think we have a good candidate for the nuthouse.

you need to settle down ABOOJA...no one is attacking you. It seems you just can't handle hearing things about Jr that you don't like.

And I'm a Jr fan!
 
Abooja, Don't take things so personally. You should have known that comments as such come with the territory of being a Junior fan. Just as I have endured cracks about Rudd's age and everything that was said about him during his contract negotiation. If you noticed I very rarely replied to any of them. And when your driver spins someone out, intentional or not, that driver is going to catch some heat. How you respond to it is your choice.
 
I'm a Jr fan (well, he's top of a list of about 5 drivers I root for) and I watched Jr and Ward tangle last night......I'm sure Jr could have avoided the contact but if he did then he would have failed to do what he needed to do to win. It looked to me like Ward's car either wasn't handling as good as he wanted it to or he was blocking Jr. Jr was faster and it was time to go or loose the chance to win......since his job to to win (if at all possible) he could not just back off and let Ward stay in front of him. I don't think it was intentional but I don't think Jr did much to avoid the tap either.....why should he? Ward was holding him up! What I saw last night was Bristol racing at it's best.......this time Ward came up on the short end of the stick (Ward is one of those about 5 other drivers I root for). I just didn't see it as a dirty driving incident. Will there be retaliation? Maybe, but if it happens like what happened last night then I will defend Ward.......if Ward intentionally slams Jr (which I doubt he will) then I will see it as "just racin".

Now, if that sounds like I'm blindly sticking up for Jr, then I guess you folks don't understand how I (and some of the other Jr fans) see our driver.:)
 
paul...first off..i never said that no one had the right to post/bash/ or whatever about a driver.....the class remark was directed towards ironman...i said bashing or bad talkin another person(driver) isn't classy,( and there was personal attacks pointed at Jr and Dale that weren't necassary to talk about what happened) but never said no one could do it.......and i never said Jr gets picked on more than any one else( only asked if it wasn't an earnhardt would it be that big a topic)......and if I thought last nite was a dirty move I'd say so....but I don't believe it was....with that few laps left you gotta drive hard......and if it was the other way around in the same exact fashion, I wouldn't feel any different about that I do right now.......:)
 
OK friends and fans, time to let this go, have a:beerchug: or a valium.

No "Blind Devotion" here, (I LOVE JEFF), and let's not forget that rubbin' is racin'.
PURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
 
Boy this thread was noisy,Everbody gonna be allright?We got more racin to come yet,Don't get to big a woody.:D
 
Just have to deal with it. Being a Harvick fan isn't easy either. But, it is all fun. Not everybody likes your driver, not everybody likes my driver. But that is the fun part about it. I'm not a Jeff Gordon fan, I like to make fun of him but I respect his driving ability. I mean no harm poking at other drivers. Alot of people really make fun of Harvick but I choose not to get real mad about because they have their own opinions.
 
You said it all 66,That bone head Harvick is a wisenheimer,And who ever else you like is too.:p Man that was fun,You ain't mads are you?Oh take a good stab at Mark Martin,I ask for it.:D
 
WOW what fun this one has been. I really like it when tnward gets fired up. he don't hold anything back and I think it is pretty funny. :beerchug: :beerchug:
 
Ok 66,Good answer,I will not be forced to put you on my ignore list at this time,But you are on probation,So you just better watch it Mister.:p
 
LOL 66....you made me think of animal house...double secret probation!!...:D
 
LOL...just checking in from my 'mountain resort cabin'[shack]and what do I find going on?This was a great thread TWF!'Intoxicator'...that is rich Man!!!!!!! LMMFAO!!!The biggest idiotic remark of the race had to go to Robby'you-deserve-a-medal-Kurt-'Gordon and his reply of "What"?in that little girl voice of his!Hilarious!
 
(taking a bow) Thank you. I always liked that name for him myself. Although I got a few other names right now.

Glad to hear you're a Jr fan, Dutch, but you're acting like a troll right now. If you're going to pop in every 10 weeks with a comment, why not make it a nice one?
