I'm wondering how fans are going to behave next year when a DEI car or driver is announced next year. On the one hand people are upsett because they feel anger towards Theresa Earnhardt and right now she is DEI so that makes her and anyone connected to DEI enemy #1, but then on the other hand this is the Great Dale Sr. company, the daddy of the Boy Wonder we know and love as JuneBug, could anyone really find it in their hearts (or nerve which ever the case may be) to boo anything that has the name Earnhardt attached to it. And how would Jr react to fans booing his fathers dream team? I'm looking forward to your thoughts.

I don't think they would boo truex or menard, if they are in a Chevy.Now if they merge with Yates then yes they will boo them some because of the die hard Chevy fans that support DEI that's if they convert to Ford. On the other hand if they put somebody in the # 8 he is going to get booed no matter what that's just the way it works its like the # 3 try and put anybody other than Jr in it and see what happens. I believe there would be some people upset if that happened.

I am watching qualifying right now, and just a little while ago, I was absolutely appauled because fans are booing JuneBug for his decision to leave DEI. I would like to see DEI continue to be a thriving business because of the late great D. Earnhardt Sr., but I would also LOVE to see Jr. succeed as well. I think it would be wonderful to see Jr. come out next year for RCR or Hendrick. If he does come out for RCR, he will stay with chevy, and with Bud, but will the number 8 be with him? If not, will he run the #3? Maybe I will post that one myself!!! lol

I think that it is up to the driver and not the company he works for. Don't get me wrong, if Teresa Earnhardt is in a public place people will boo her, especially if Jr. eventually wins a championship. Unfortunately, she is not at the track that often. Jr. is going to keep most of his fans, even if he goes to Hendrick and especially if he is driving the #3 at Richard Childress Racing. Success breeds fan support. If Teresa puts a popular driver into her car, DEI will not get booed that much.

Do you think of in case you have been Geelong with your eyes firmly on the finals you may announce the re-signing of Gary Ablett only earlier the initiating of the finals? that's what i might do. I also have a especially sturdy feeling it truly is the case. GCS have already shown they have no decorum - there is not any way they'd not be saying or strongly hinting if there became a signature. And, in spite of everything i might desire to in no way boo a participant that helped lead us to our first flag in 40 4 years and then yet another only because of the fact some trumped up group has greater greenbacks to throw around.

DEI shouldn't become "the enemy" and people shouldn't boo DEI. Remember, Dale Jr. made the decision to leave. DEI didn't fire him, it was 100% his choice. So DEI should not be booed. But we are talking about Junior fans and they will boo at any and every thing. At Talladega and Phoenix they had a hard time behaving themselves. There's no reason to think they can behave themselves in this situation either.

No, they won't BOO the team that Dale, Sr. created...But like the media has basically been saying, it is a shell, or will be next year, of its former self...

that company belongs to Dale Sr. and he built it for his children, not his wife. He wanted Dale Jr. to have control of the company. Teresa isn't respecting Dale Sr.'s wishes, so he's public enemy number one.

Thats really interesting to think about. I just don't think that maybe its who owns the team though I believe that it is the driver that people choose to hate or like. I believe it will depend on how many fans/haters the drivers have.

I don't think it would be right to do so. Out of respect for Sr., but as far a Teresa is concerned she should be blacked flagged.
