OK, so the new ‘big’ news is that Tony is going to Haas in a buy in deal. And it sounds like ‘Zip’ is staying at JGR but how about the sponsor and #. Has anybody heard if Home Depot will follow Tony to the new team? Lord knows that team could use the $$$. I had heard earlier that Office Depot was a possible sponsor. How about the number 20? It was a huge issue with Jr. and I can’t help to think that with the following Tony has, that it wouldn’t be an issue for him as well.
Let me know!

Zippy
and the crew are staying at JGR that was part of the deal when they agreed to let Tony out of his contract. But who knows what will happen after 2009 when Zippy’s contract is up…...

LOL, MT.
Heck, ur still my cousin even if we dont see eye-to-eye on drivers .
As for the tattoo thing. If I had one, i would just add a forever above it! 20 will always be 20 in my mind… after all, I don’t think Tony will be driving for much longer… I feel this is his first step in getting out of the car and into the owners seat. (IMO)

So...
How about all those folks with 20 tatoo’s. Gonna be kinda hard to cover that with a 14. I love shopping at Home Depot but didn’t like kickin money to Stewart, who I don’t like. Just hope that whoever replaces Tony is somebody who I don’t mind sponsoring with my $$$’s.
Sorry Monkey! Just not a fan.

from what ive read
the 20 and home depot are staying at jgr..office depot and jack daniels are coming over to the new stewart-haas organization..and stewart said he would like the no. 14..thats just what ive read from several different articles..so i guess we really wont know until its all final…and about the number being a big issue..i thought it would be a bigger deal too..maybe those fans just havent expressed their feelings yet

I was sure that
Zippy would go with Tony. I guess the announcement tomorrow will give us some more facts. Dang, it’ll be new everything for Tony. At least Junior brought Tony Jr. with him. I bet Tony’s emotions are mixed right now: a little scared but at the same time excited.

stay with JGR, that’s COOL with me since I don’t and never will shop there. I shop at LOWES and that is not just because they sponsor HMS. I like their stores better, they don’t destroy neighborhoods with transient day-workers and trash. I wish Tony all the best with his new deal and I am glad he’s going to be back in a Chevy!
