Did anyone catch his little on-camera interview on ESPN concerning Dale Jr's
Daytona win ?
This jerk basically said that the race was a work of "Fiction" and that he
knew Dale Jr. was going to win before it ever started.
Man, what a sore loser!
The guy led, what 3/4 of the race (which is damned difficult under the
current rules), had by far the best car on the track, and with a little
expected teamwork won the race.
It's as simple as that.

I don't know why you are making an issue out of that comment. Maybe you
should back up and look at the big picture...Dale jr. is a good driver, and
I am happy for his win...but don't sit there convincing yourself that no
other driver on that track wanted him to win.

I don't.
And I think it's just plain chicken-shit talk.
-Larry
Sheez. Calm down.

The sponsordwant a good show to favorably showcase their product or
service. The Pepsi 400 was a hell of a show with a sweet, happy
ending. Good exposure for the sport and the sponsors, even if your
car didn't win today. ;)
Yes. Michael Waltrip said just that in the interview following the
race.
