I guess the same reason everyone else does. Why do you care so much about it?

I agree but she sure looks better then the rest of the drivers. It's the fact she is a female and there trying to boost ratings is all. Fact is she's still a better driver then JR Time will tell weather she cuts it or not, Time has shown Jr doesn't cut it with the best of everything.

If jr has another year this year like he did last year, he will most likely hang it up after his contract is over and become a car owner and you can be happy again that he isnt on the track.

I still dont understand your logic that he hasnt shown he can cut it in Nascar though. You do realize how many GREAT drivers that have came and gone in this sport that would like to have 18 race wins and a Daytona 500 trophy right?

Are you basing this off the fact that he doesnt have a championship?

You also realize Mark Martin doesnt have one either and has been racing 3 times as long as Jr has right? yet he is a "class act"

Im not here to argue with you...........it doesnt much matter to me anymore. Im just trying to understand your logic Stump

Ryan the only problem I have with JR is the hype people make over him and you know as well as I do it's only because of his last name.

It baffles me how people can think he is such a great driver when he doesn't even finish most of the races anymore for one reason or another.

You don't hear much about Mark Martin like you do JR and your right he is a class act. Jr is a great person as well just not the driver he is made out to be is all I have ever said.

I use to be a Jr fan when he first came on the scene but after he showed me how he drives I lost interest in him fast.

And last I like talking smack about him because it makes pages turn And gives folks something to read and others something to stew over

Please explain to me how Jr is such a GREAT river when he has the same equipment available as his other team mates and can't win or finish anywhere near them? That's the only question you need to answer.

He doesn't have what it takes. He has had different crews, Crew chiefs as well as cars and still can't pull it off. Y'all said he needed time to get in the groove with his new team well how much time should we give him?

Fair enough

I never once said he was a GREAT driver I do think he has earned his spot in this sport though

Jr had less than a full season with his new crew chief last year and equipment that was so out of touch with what the rest of the HMS drivers were driving it wasnt even funny.

Ricks main goal for the off season was to get the 88 car to running better...The 5 and 88 are a TEAM now just like the 24 and 48 are.

Lets give them a chance before we hang their nuts to the wall

The bad thing with him is, he is in a lose lose situation no matter what........if he comes out of the gate and wins races then the haters will just say Nascar is fixing it for him

No if he comes out winning he will earn the respect back he has lost of many fans. Maybe with the new rules he will do better. I still think hot legs is going to smoke his butt LOL
