Just Shut Up!!!
By Mark Young
It's been a quiet couple of weeks regarding JSU. Nothing to get me riled up enough to talk about one particular issue so what I have decided to do is make this a little bit of a rant about the things that are bothering me lately. It might even help with the grumpy attitude I have had lately, so buckle up blog-heads, the gloves are off.
U WANT SOME??
JSU - Denny Hamlin. You went off to the media about the performance of your pit crew and how it cost you a win. Did anyone go off on you in front of the TV cameras when you got caught speeding on pit road and it cost you a win? Team sport bud, remember that.
JSU - Anyone who said "These tires suck" at Charlotte. Everyone had the same tire, not everyone crashed or blew tires. Could they have brought a softer tire? Sure but people would have complained that they sucked because of blistering.
JSU - To the media that spends more time reporting about Dale Junior than the racing. "He ate lunch at Burger King yesterday, could he be headed to Michael Waltrip Racing?" Come on people, stop making up stupid rumors, he will tell us when he knows.
JSU - To anyone who complains about how bad the COT handles and then complains when the menagerie of a car they run the rest of the time handles bad. Your team Engineers have spent hours in the wind tunnel giving your twisted-bodied race car all of the aerodynamic down-force possible, don't whine about aero push when you get behind the leader, you got what you asked for.
JSU - Jack Rousch and your whining about all of the time and money spent on testing and how you were following the rules. Nobody told you that you couldn't go to tracks the series doesn't run on and test. Nobody said you couldn't buy Hoosier tires either. Other owners beat you to the punch so you had to cry foul. Wanna go faster? Spend the money those guys did, NASCAR will change things soon enough and when they do you will whine about how unfair their decision was......careful what you wish for.
JSU - And quit worrying about Michael Waltrip not making races, the world isn't going to end. I have never seen so much attention paid to a team that is performing poorly in all my days as a race fan. MWR is either going to figure it out or they will close. I personally think that Mikey will get it figured out sooner or later but we shouldn't be surprised that he is running bad. He may have bit off more than he could chew.
You know what? I feel much better now, I should do this more often.........
That's what I think, what say you?

Ahh, Mark Young! You just might have written the perfect post. Would you mind taking on the crappy television coverage next?

Thanks Ron. The TV coverage has been much better than before, and I am going to wait until TNT and ESPN have gotten into the game before I make too much noise.
