Junior is a Joke

[FlyersFan]

....always has been and always will be. If his last name wasn't Earnhardt he probably wouldn't even have a ride. I mean great effort today.....first he overshoots his pitbox and has to go around...............then he pits on the line and has a penalty............then he takes out 1/2 of the field....

he's won about as many races over the last 2 years as Boris Said. he's a marginal chase driver every year and i think the guy is a joke.

Another race, another excuse for Junior - NASCAR - Yahoo! Sports

great article that sums it all up....


but here is what i don't get (and i will admit im a fringe nascar fan and i was a lot more into it 10 years ago before it became the corporate product that it is now....i think most of the races are boring and the product is no where near the product that it was 10 years ago...and i have been the guest of 2 race teams, pit passes all that stuff on multiple occasions....so i was "around" so to speak back a number of years ago)...........fans hate all over jeff gordon, jimmy johnson, tony stewart, kyle busch......but they love Junior........i don't get it.......those guys all have better numbers than Jr over the past couple of years and i've seen nothing classless out of johnson or gordon.....and stewart is stewart......busch is an ass but he's a 20x better driver than carphardt junior is.

to me junior is a product of his name and people's love for him as a driver is misguided as it is really a product of the love fans had for his father. they are transposing that love for the 3 onto junior becuase of the name. Junior is the anna kournikova of nascar....all fluff and no stuff......

if junior was named almandinger (whatever) or said or somebody like that he would have been shitcanned back to the truck series long ago.....1 win in 100 starts and 3 in the last 5 years.......hell, kyle busch had 8 last year alone.....

FF-Shhhhhhhh don't let the secret out....easy money on the head to head on JR.

I fade him almost every time I can. Head to head has been easy money especially when he qualifies well or at the super speedway where he is SUPPOSED to be the SHIT. Then you get some great odds.

I don't get the misguided love/hate thing either. Guess Gordon's a city boy,strike one.

Jr. took out my entire field with that one and really ruined what was already a SHITTY Daytona!

Well your right FF he's a joke all right but the jokes on us while he goes to the bank every morning and LHFAO.

Now in his defense. You cant win them all and you can't win a championship if you can't drive the last 10 tracks. LOL
