The NFL is rigged becauses the pats have won 9 straight. The NBA is rigged because the Celtics are 8-0. MLB is rigged because the Yankees won 3 straight titles. Cmon folks. It happens in every other sport so why do people flip out when ti happens in NASCAR. This coming from someone who hates jimmie johnson. But the man has been on his game and he has outclassed everyone even Jeff. But to delcare him champion is hilarious. 400 miles left to race and all it takes is one flat tire, one part failure and Jeff is champ, so just because luck has been on your side doesnt mean it will continue. The racing GODS have a odd way of changing things up once you thought you had them figured out.

No, I believe Johnson and Knaus are that good and it helps to have Hendrick power. Where NASCAR is "rigged" is the points system. A driver spends an entire season in dominant fashion, leading by well over 300 pts. going into the chase, and that lead is diminished to nothing. Under the old system this year's championship would have been decided weeks ago. Yes, Johnson has put together an amazing string of races down the stretch, but Gordon has finished in the top 10 in nearly every race this entire year, and won several races throughout the season. Maybe NASCAR is "rigged" to guarantee someone other than Gordon will win the title every year.....

Naw Fuzzy I don`t think so I`ve wondered the same thing a few times tho. Lowe`s does sponsor a track and puts a lot of money into NASCAR but if it was rigged some of the jealous
car owners would let it out and everyone would know it for sure. Maybe I`m wrong tho.

The media has been boosting Jimmie as championship since the Daytona race in July.
And the past 5 or 6 events the media has given him the chapionship.

Certainly makes you wonder. Especially if you keep in mind that JJ is a Hendrick car/team and car owner Rick Hendrick was brought up on federal counts of bribery 10 years ago.

No it is not rigged. I understand peoples frustration on this subject but the Results of HMS dominance is from Hard Work-A great Team-Great Communication-Expert People in the Organization--Not from Cheating-Rigging or Palm Greasing!!!!

Yep, I keep telling you people that they hand out scripts at the driver's meetings.
