Ok, in the last couple of weeks listening to all the Jr fans and every commentator talking about how Kyle wrecked Jr. Oh please ANYONE who bumps, wrecks or out drives Jr is hated. Give me a break. I like Jr don’t get me wrong LOVED his Dad. Kyle is just BETTER. Jr is a superstar, fine, that does not make him a great driver just because of his genes or last name. Kyle’s humor though all of this is impressive and funny. I think being around Tony Stewart is rubbing off. Jr is a fan favorite, sure, Kyle is on fire and the Jr Nation is having a breakdown over the fact Jr isn’t winning every race. Have the fans of Dale Jr stopped to think the pressure they themselves have put on this guy whos life has been in a spin since his Dad died. Maybe him not being aloud to be himself and constantly having to live up to his Dad is the reason he can’t get his head in the game. He has skill there is NO DOUBT about it. Kyle does what he does. If back in the day Dale Sr would have taken someone out like that it would have had the fans on their feet cheering. It’s always a fan favorite that better no be pushed around or he will be booed, threatened, yeah you heard me, and Jrs fans want him kicked out of NASCAR, time to grow up. The saying rubbing is racing, well so is wrecking. Love to all my Gibbs fans! GO TONY

The is no problem with what I wrote, Kyle was Booed with NO CHEERS to drown him out, Dale Sr. was never booed like Kyle has recieved. So again there no problem. Kyle is hot NOW. Not a year ago, and yes someone always comes along and they may be better. I’ll the kid props now. Go Kyle!

for now. If my gut is right he will be upstaged by someone even younger in a couple years.

BEST SHOW ON THE TRACK!
Kyle Busch has more driving talent than any active drive, far ans away! Kyle Busch will win dozens, upon dozens of races in the nest ten years and he’ll just be Jr’s age at present. I’ll be so much fun too watch this “SUPERSTAR.”

to be honest
i have no idea how jr can even function with the pressure on him…it’s got to be hard.
Kyle is simply doing much better this year b/c he much more comfortable, happier & felt wanted by his current team & teammates & that makes a world of a difference on a driver. I don’t think anyone truly sees just what kyle has done this year….he switched to a whole new team, a whole new pitcrew, a new crew chief (& one that has never won a cup race at that), new teammates, & new manufacturer & the COT….
but bottom line to it all….we all tend to ‘dislike’ our fiercest competitors….just some take it further than others.

The problem..
with your analogy is this. Dale Sr WAS booed in the 90’s. You just couldn’t hear it over the cheers because he was more popular then most if not all at the track the whole time.

Thank you - I can hear it loud and clear!!
Thank you for repeating what I have been saying for weeks. But, of course no one really wants to hear it.
