NASCAR Illustrated names Jeff Burton 2007 Person of the Year
Every year, NASCAR Illustrated staffers name a Person of the Year in NASCAR for their efforts on and off the track, this year they chose Jeff Burton.
In addition to being one of the top drivers in the sport, Burton has been an advocate for improved driver safety as well as a top supporter of the Duke Children's Hospital. Burton and his wife Kim have raised well over a million dollars for the hospital and devoted countless hours of personal time to brightening the lives of seriously ill children. (part of an AT&T Press Release)
In honor of Person of the Year, Old Spice will donate $5,000 to Duke's Childrens Hospital in Burtons name, AT&T will match that donation of $5,000 to Duke's in honor of Burton winning the award.
Burton will appear on the cover of the December issue of NASCAR Illustrated. Congrats to Jeff Burton on the award!

i agree.How did Hms get into the subject of Jeff Burton getting the Person Of The Year
Award
If you ever have been nascar fans and not just fans jumping around from driver to driver
just riding the driver doing the best in a season.I have been a Jeff Burton fan for 10
years.. you don't just jump around from driver to driver.
This is an honor for Jeff.......nothing to do with HMS
go Jeff and shut there mouthes in 08

Posted by: aggie | Nov 21, 2007 9:56:11 PM

Brady needs to keep those Trojans on instead of paying all that child support, which he deserves.
Grecth,

aggie
talkin' about all cc's cheating...
one word comes to mind
Smokey, as in Smokey's Best Damn Garage in Town Yunick.
7/8 scale chevelle at daytona
or the story of when he failed inspection, nascar pulled his gas tank, Smokey started it up and drove it home w/o the tank
or, some story like that.
there ya go.
Posted by: exile | Nov 21, 2007 9:35:40 PM
aggie's into the Molson Ice I see. LMFAO!!!
Tb is good. No doubt. I just like Peyton and Eli. And my LOVE for the Cowboys has been resurected by Romo and the THUG T.O.!!! I hate/love T.O. !!!
Posted by: Gretchen | Nov 21, 2007 9:33:53 PM
Gretchen
you definitely win the post/lline of the month and day award with these 2……………….
He can't break a sweat on the field but he's breaking one in the bedroom.
Drum roll please for number 2
Just f**k off. just f**k off. You and your driver and his organization."
you guys/gals are fired up today, i pity those poor turkeys tommrrow LOL
Posted by: aggie | Nov 21, 2007 9:32:04 PM
DEB DEB
Got a kid and ain't even married to it's Ma. I never heard about Manning having a kid away from the wife.
OKOK Ms Falwell
ooops i meant Deb, its kinda like a semi starter marrige with lite baggage lol
i know about the kid !!!!! well you see what happens when u get more pussy than the humane society LOL bad things gonna happen
Posted by: aggie | Nov 21, 2007 9:25:17 PM
You know what's F'd up? As much as I HATE Tennessee. I REALLY HATE UT. I LOVE PM and Eli. I was soooo happy when the Colts took the SBowl last year.
Deb, we WILL turn Kurt2 into a Dawg fan. I think we've kinda done it already....
And.....as i've said. i work in Child Support Enforcement so, T Brady ain't my favorite QB right now. Gisele needs to eat a cheeseburger or 5. And TB needs to own up to his responsibilities. He can't break a sweat on the field but he's breaking one in the bedroom.
Posted by: Gretchen | Nov 21, 2007 9:21:18 PM
k2
more film than a porn store right lol
you of all people know that all CC's cheat........quit that choir boy routine ok they all cheat!!!
Jamie MCmurray are you nuts we turned on him back in 06 he is in the same league as
JM and a few other who should not be in cup
back to crown royal, i hate whiskey, but that is a good one just dont kill it with coke
fire up that samsung stove and get that turkey in there
Posted by: aggie | Nov 21, 2007 9:20:57 PM
Exile, I couldnt disagree with you more have never uttered a bad word regarding Jeff Gordon, nor Chad K. The best person over there is Chad K. Hands down.
Sorry you hate Kyle, better get use to seeing a lot more of him though at JGR.
Kurt2
i was kidding about you not saying anything good about hms.
are chad and jeff the lesser of many other evils at hms in your eyes?
i don't think ky will do that great at jgr.
even if jgr gives him the best to make a good 1st impression and make the sponsors happy...
how many races can they do that before the 20 says enough of this shit i want the best equipment for my team?
anyway these are my thoughts and they may change or probably will change as time goes by.
2 thoughts...
99 car or 17 car is where you work.
HAVE A GREAT TURKEY DAY !!!!!!!!
Posted by: exile | Nov 21, 2007 9:18:30 PM
Agg,
Your pretty Boy Brady won't last forever. Thank God and I hope Manning will kick his pretty little Butt again. The playoffs and the superbowl is where it counts. I've had to cry in my Bud light before. Remember the song: Tears In My Beer or Bud Light. Brady, what a piece of crap he is. Got a kid and ain't even married to it's Ma. I never heard about Manning having a kid away from the wife.
Gretchen,
Sooooooooooooooo glad you are back. I've had to put the sniffers down alone. I need some help here with the Hendrick sniffers.
Posted by: Deb | Nov 21, 2007 9:04:32 PM
Opps aggie forgot the Pats are in the same category as HMS now. Hell if I had all the film the pats did any NASCAR team could go 10-0
Posted by: kurt2 | Nov 21, 2007 8:51:17 PM
Damn Gretchens got the JACK D.. Her and Deb are in Dawg mode. Be afraid boys, be afraid.
Pray for the safety of the State of Ga the Bulldogs win. or 2 pissed off women will be out.
Deb, to the tissue fund contact the 11 car oops that Tampons:)
Aggie, whats you deal with Bowyer? he kicked the shit out of all but 2 people who have Tatoo up there rears?
What you pulling for Jamie MCmurray these days? NEw Crown Royal pipe
Posted by: kurt2 | Nov 21, 2007 8:49:18 PM
Deb
yes the lowly Falcons the poster boys of the humane society, dont say micheal vick too loud around my golden retreiver, he gets into the is lunch here mode, fast!!
the colts wont be as merciless as the pats, the pats would hang 50 on the falcons by 1/2 time on behalf of the us humane society......the pats are just like NFL vigilates this year!!
i think every nascar driver sweated more at fontana IN ONE LAP than brady has all year!!
Posted by: aggie | Nov 21, 2007 8:41:53 PM
We will NOT lose to Tech or else......LOL!!!
And I STILL love Jeff Burton and ALL that he's done in his career on and off the track.....
And I still love Junior, but I will wear that tape over the HMS logo on the side of my cap for eternity.......
Deb, Munson is going to ATL Saturday!!
How 'Bout Them DAWGS?
Posted by: Gretchen | Nov 21, 2007 8:29:35 PM
I'm just really tired, tired, tired, of EVERYone- all of the media, etc. kissing HMS' a$$hole, sucking on it actually. ALL Gordon did was prove to me beyond a shadow of a doubt that what I have said over and over again that he-nor Kimmie- can drive a less than perfect car was proven during the last 10 races of the year. JG has a better CC than KJ. There's your title.
Kurt2...I saved it for right f***ing now...
Jon2...I take it upon myself to tell you what SOOOOO many folks want to say to you..." Just f**k off. just f**k off. You and your driver and his organization."
Deb I see that Glavine is home at last. I was sitting on my couch in Athens on October 28, 1995 when he threw that F***ing GEM of a game against Cleveland. The SAME day that the Gayturds led by Steve Spurrier came to Athens and Whipped our a$$e$ 52-17 'tween the hedges. I was soooo upset after leaving Sanford, but Tom Glavine picked me up and led me on into the night. A looong night indeed. LOL!
Kurt2, i have found my 2008 home....Jack Daniels Racing. At mom's house now. She thinks I am NUTS. She hears me in here laughing my fat a$$ off!!! WITH MY JACK AND COKE!!!
Posted by: Gretchen | Nov 21, 2007 8:25:05 PM
Kurt2,
Yes, our high dollar QB needs alittle shock treatment or one of those pitt bulls turn on him. He turned hisself in before his time to see if the judge would have pitty on him. I hope the judge says Hell No. You Boy Vick are in some major $hit. Anyway, I will need tissues tomorrow night when Manning kicks our Butt. Can you donate to the tissue fund here in Ga??????????????
Posted by: Deb | Nov 21, 2007 8:24:24 PM
Agg,
Yes, our lowly Falcons. What a pitty. Can we say second string or bench warmers for the Colts? They are going to kick our butt's soooooooooooooooo bad. Damn Vick for his stupidness. What a dumbass he is.
Sorry for getting away from Burton.
Posted by: Deb | Nov 21, 2007 8:13:28 PM
Board,
PLease be safe in you are in the ATL area if the Ga Bulldogs lose to Tech . Gretchen and Deb will have a lost of raod rage, hid, pull over and run away from your cars.
Hell Deb you QB is a damn felon whom needed to be shot not go to jail. As my "girls" are dogs". Hell with shooting him, put him in a cage with all of them and dip his sorry ass in blood prior. Then let them sentence him:)
Posted by: kurt2 | Nov 21, 2007 8:13:02 PM
I can deal with the Boys and Colts winning Aggie, but don't say the Lions will lose, it'll get way too loud my way.
Posted by: Kathy | Nov 21, 2007 8:12:11 PM
K2
Aggie, No Not MWR, we make races and the Chase.
yeah okok but you were probably on one those chase pretender teams lol at RCR!! or maybe on the best pretemder team of 08 the #11
get that turkey out of the way cause the Pack is going to feast on the lions, then dallas is gonna slap the jets backl across teh hudson..folowed by indy with a hi scoring intra squad practice game with the lowly falcons!!
Posted by: aggie | Nov 21, 2007 8:04:05 PM
Kurt2,
That A Boy.Goooooooooooooo Daaaaaaaaaaawgs.
All those great bowl games are coming up in Jan. Goooooooooooooooo Braaaaaaaaaaves. I just can't seem to say go Falcons now that our QB is a real Felon and turned hisself in to serve his time. As bad as I hate to say this, but tomorrow night Manning is going to slaughter my poor little Falcons to death on national tv. If my Daaaaaaawgs don't beat the Beeeeeeeeeeee's tomorrow then look out on the Hwy Monday. Don't be on 285 on Monday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: Deb | Nov 21, 2007 7:55:05 PM
Deb
I swear you and Gretchen are kin somewhere down the line:)
Its hard being in ACC land, but for you both I have followed the DAWGGS and pulled for them..
Posted by: kurt2 | Nov 21, 2007 7:26:38 PM
Kurt2,
Atlanta, bring it on. I love,love,love Atlanta. What a great place to race and yes I WILL put all those sniffers to shame. Those Ga Bulldogs are in my bloooooooooood.
GoooooooooooooDaaaaaaaaaaaaaawgs!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: Deb | Nov 21, 2007 7:06:05 PM
Thru all the BS at times I want to take a minute to tell all of you Have a safe and Happy Thanksgiving. Even you to J2
Above all enjoy yourselves and stay safe.
wanted to say that before the usual begins.
Posted by: kurt2 | Nov 21, 2007 7:04:56 PM
Deb,
Not a sniffer here. I dont like the A**lickers @ HMS any more than you do. Its sad that I do have a few friends on Crews there and in the shop.You and Grethcehn need to go to a race together and get a few fans straight with there 24/48 issues. That would be funny as hell.
Aggie, No Not MWR, we make races and the Chase. Guess you stocked up on Candian crack
Posted by: kurt2 | Nov 21, 2007 6:32:12 PM
Kurt2,
Please get up off you knees. I dooooooooooo
understand. I'm more on your side than you could ever imagine, but I CAN NOT be on the sniffer side. Just like the poor Pepsi kid at Publix who had no idea that two females would rip him apart for that evil crap on his head.

are you going to get a real pit crew job in 08 or are you still going to be an air hose applicator @ MWR??

ok u have redeemed yourself, i was begining to think u were into the #7 lol
k2 were u aware of that stat and how the 24 in the last month of every season seems to fade off??
the chase is like the ncaa tourney and you have to rise to a whole new level to win it all, if not its the longest shortest season just ask MTJ......
the 11 and 20, especially ts $ cz after KC seemed to be in RD mode !!
i still cant believe how the 20 just came apart like a cheap suit after those bad calls by zippy in KC, unreal how they went into the shitter so fast!! and never seemed to recover, kyb is going to be the leader of that team in 08
Posted by: aggie | Nov 21, 2007 4:27:08 PM
Well i am sorry that wasnt right.
I meant well to follow Debs post, now J2 went back to Jerry Falwell. Dont have a issue with Deb at all. Sorry Deb , that wasnt at you that was at J2's post on the fact "all belivers forgave Rick"
I do apologize. Meaning he was talking about Felon and being forgiven. Should have said that its was reagarding J2 not you.

Great Song. I Have To Cook.

Agg,
No, I'm female only when I want to be nice and the rest of the time is the product of growing up with ALL OLDER brothers. Cut NO slack to nobody.
Posted by: Deb | Nov 21, 2007 4:10:11 PM
Deb:
as much as i love the #8 car, i think song says it all
Piece of shit car
I got a piece of shit car
That fuckin' pile of shit
Never gets me very far
My car's a big piece of shit
'Cause the shocks are fucking shot
And my seatbelt's fucking broken
(It's a piece of shit)
I can't see through the windshield
'Cause it's got a big fucking' crack
And the interior smells real bad
'Cause my friend puked in the back
(It's a piece of shit)
It's got no CD player, it only got the 8-track
Whoever designed my car can lick my sweaty nut sack
(They can bite his ass too)
And I got no fuckin' brakes
I'm always way out of control
Eleven times a day I hear "Hey, watch it asshole"
