Thats a silly post. NASCAR would have done any other driver the same way. You cant really punish someone for a mechanical failure. Just tough luck is all. I highly doubt NASCAR would make up the story about it being an accident if it wasn't. They want to catch all the "real" cheaters that they can so try to put an end to it.

 

 

Do you every read Larry Woody in the Tennessean? It is common knowledge of the Little E and Jeff Gordon bias in NASCAR. The star athlete can get away with more and the non-star studded athletes. I don't say if it is right or wrong, just the way it is in any sporting industry.

 

You can call it silly, stupid or whatever you want but if the kettle is black, it's black. NASCAR applies the rules that best serves NASCAR. It been their legacy and I don't see any change now or in the future as long as the France mafia gang is in charge.

 

Jack Roush quote 2/14/07:

"Certainly, it's been unprecedented," Roush said. "But if you look and say what have been the precedents of NASCAR, what has been their history and their tradition, it has been to do unprecedented things -- when it suits their purpose. They continue to do things that are different and that are more severe as they relate to infractions than has historically been the case."

 

Ray Evernham quote 2/14/07:

"I don't mind the rules," Evernham said. "I do want the cheating -- even the gray area -- to stop, but the way the rule book is written, it forces you to do those things. ... Now that you can be suspended or penalized heavily for presenting something that you are not sure of, now what do you do? We're going to have to say that maybe the rules have to be written a little bit more clearly."

It's not a "mechanical failure" if a part is part on wrong,OCF!

 

Muffin,that's a great point!

I was at the race and got more than my money's worth, even though 8 spun out.

 

Am I the only one super ticked off with Mark Martin? I used to be a huge #6 fan, but after the 1999 Goody's 500 and seeing how a real man wins a race (Dale Sr.) I switched my loyalties. Martin has no killer instinct. Why would he let off the gas? Stupid. Why didn't he run Harvick into the wall? Stupid.

Right, you don't blantly ram someone into the wall. You cruise your car high and either force them to back off the gas or create contact. Mark Martin is a very clean driver, that's his problem. Bill Elliot won Most Popular driver award multiple times in the 90s by racing and being squeaky clean.. where did that get him? Once he got old, nothing. He lost the "Eye of the Tiger", Mark Matrin never had it.

      several people actually. they said “snoball, do you know who railbird81 is on coacht?” I said, “never heard of her.” they said, “you ought to check it out they’re getting fired up on there like the old days.” well, you can imagine my disappointment when I came here expecting sharp, witty banter and all i found was more akin to toddlers slap fighting. and what looks like 1 guy/gal talking to themselves with multiple accounts.

      GoFundMe for Blackman Freshman with Spinal Cord Injury

      By mat73557 · Posted

      Quick update on Jacob -  Jacob celebrated his 16th birthday at Vanderbilt on Tuesday and has been in decent spirits.  His sense of humor has begun to show as he was visited by many friends.  He is swallowing a lot better now and has eaten some of his favorites (Chik-Fil-A and Five Guys).   He is getting prepared to head to Atlanta to the Shepherd Center first thing tomorrow morning.  His family has been waiting on insurance approval. In case you dont know the Shepherd Center it a world class facility and supposedly one of the best in the country for spinal injury rehab.  Praying for perfect results there. Considering the circumstances, Jacob is in decent spirits.  He has some reflexive movement in his legs which I think is probably a very positive sign.  Don't read too much into that just yet as there is no telling what the real prognosis is... just hopeful that is good thing.  I am really just happy that it seems like he has a punchers chance of getting something back.  He is a strong young man and very determined so I think he will fight as hard as he can in physical therapy while down in Atlanta. More than one of you has asked me about an address to send donations.  I know GoFundMe isn't for everyone.  If you want to go that route, you can make a check to "Blackman Wrestling Club" and we will pass anything received directly to the Kinderdines.   Jacob Kinderdine c/o Blackman Wrestling 4836 Trevino Court Murfreesboro, TN  37128 Also, want to thank everyone who has donated so far.  Jacobs dad will take a month off work and stay in Atlanta with him.  They need to learn how to take care of him and do home therapy work..... and surely Jacob will be glad his dad can be there.  All that could not happen without you all.  Depending on what happens, they will probably end up doing some home remodeling in order to accommodate Jacob at their home.  Thanks again. Here's a pic I lifted from Facebook of Jacob on Oxy talking to his Uncle.  LOL
