When thinking about this whole Jr going to Hendrick mess, and maybe I'm reading too much into it, but do you think there might be a deeper meaning to all of this? What I mean is, we all know that when Dale Sr. died (rest in peace), most, if not all, of his fans immigrated into Jr.'s fan base making it mostly what it is today. I don't know of many people that will dispute that. We also know that Jr. doesn't want his dad's legacy. He wants to make is own name and become a legend his own way, not ride his dad's coattail on the way to becoming a legend. So all of this got me thinking...with everything Jr. has done of late, do you think he might be trying to rid his fan base of his dad's fans?? He is doing an awful lot that the Sr fans are going absolutely nuts about while the fans that have always been just Jr. fans are, for the most part, ok with. From leaving his dad's team to go to be teammates with a driver (Gordon) that the Sr fans absolutely despise for breathing, to leaving Coke...
