Seriously though...this has to be an awkward position for Rusty . He is up in the booth paid to call the race, and he has to watch HIS son go out in a car that HE owns and screw up every weekend.
(BTW - never liked the guy...hate him even more as a comentator..LOL)

Hmmmm.....maybe we can take up a collection to bribe the guys in the broadcast booth to play an endless loop of Steven crashing on Rusty's TelePrompTer. What do ya'll think???

Funny? How many on-track deaths do you reckon Rusty has seen? Did it occur to you that it's scary for a parent to watch his son hit a wall at 180 mph?
Rusty was never my favorite driver, and he's absolutely useless as an announcer. Steven needs to go to ARCA or the like for a year or two. But come on, how about a little sensitivity?

I'm Rusty is use to it, as his son can't drive..Rusty do us and your son a favor, get out the booth and spend a year teaching Steven how to drive...It seems like every race Steven is involved with somekind of wreck or incident.. I always have the race on MRN so I don't get the Rusty torture..

Yeah but i think Steven is a good driver. He just needs to get to a better team. ESPN should can Rusty and bring in Kyle Petty. or even Kyle's Son Austin Petty

What was better was they played the radio transmission between Steven and his crew chief. The crew chief told him to quit yelling at him and shut up. Christ imagine what Kenny goes through when he spots for Steven? Steven properly begs his Uncle Mike to wreck other drivers for him
I say Rusty needs to invest his time and money on Warren Wallace, their 3rd cousin twice remove.

Yes he is a mess--Ned Jarrett used to get fired up about his son Dale as a Fathers should do. But Rusty---WOW!!!!!!

I never cared for him as a commentator either,
maybe dalejr4ever has the right idea.
I feel like Sterling Marlin took lots of heat in 2001
for something I feel like Rusty was more responsible for
than Marlin

Steven or Dale Jr...who has wrecked more this year...I think Jr. leads by a wide margin...they both drive about the same...

Too funny, yea that's gotta suck. How about when they review a wreck in slo-motion and he can say, ( oh there you go so and so moved up the race track, Steven had no place to go, not his fault!!) I love it....
