Bingo. Her being a woman has nothing to do with it. Ripping on her for wrecking and ranting is no different than picking on a male QB who keeps getting intercepted, or a goalie who can't stop a shot.
over / under on Danica this weekend

So let's talk about Kyle Busch and how ignorant he's been on AND off the track. How many wrecks has he started? What did he threaten to do to his crew if they didn't get done when he thought they should be? What about his brother?
Haters gonna hate. Danica > all of us as far as a driver goes.

Speak for yourself. I'm quite the wheelman. I could be racing in NASCAR but chose to pursue another career path.

Not this time
This is where I agree, ever since she joined NASCAR I have noticed she has a bad attitude most of the time, of course yes there are guys that have them too, but nevertheless, not the attitude of a champion really. She does seem to be improving though. I'm just ready for the season to start, now that Johnson was finally beat out last year, itll be interesting to see what they are going to talk about all season long. I am getting tired of everytime I turn on speed channel it is an interview of Danica though
She'll wreck by lap 100.
I have suspected for some time now that NASCAR punks it's fans. I see this as just another attempt to generate more interest in their sport, which has lost popularity over the last few years. The TV ratings are down quite a bit.
Which is one of the reasons that they've gone to the GEN VI car.
Remember when Dale Earnhardt was killed, and everybody looked to Little E to pick up the ball and run with it?
He seemed to come out of nowhere to win a race after a late caution. Can't remember where, but I do remember him passing cars like they were peddling it.
Then there was Jeff Gordon winning a race by taking 2 scuffed tires when Mark Martin took four and lost seconds after damn near catching him. This resulted in a fight in the garage area after the race, with Jack Roush involved.
As far a Danica goes, (she's from my area), I'll predict that she'll be passed before she goes a half a lap. The fans are being played. It's all about money.

Johnson hasn't won the championship since 2010...
You are correct sir. But I think that was one of the reasons that NASCAR's popularity wained over the past couple of years. It's like the Yankees winning the World Series every year. People lose interest. I'm more pissed at Carl Edwards decline since he signed his big deal with Roush Racing.
Oh really, so hows Danica in a sprint car?........................never drove one
shitty driver with a fabulous ride is nothing new (e.g., Sam Posey). Danica catches more flak since she's missing a chromosome. not her fault.
The real problem I have with Danica is if she turned sideways and stuck out her tongue, she'd look like a zipper. Maybe that's the missing chromosome you referred too.
What I love about all of this is that someone will win and hopefully it is clearly fair, and well deserved. Earned so to speak. And I'f Danica wins it then good for her! May she rip her shirt off and shove it down the naysayers throats.
How is that relevant? Danica spent her early years racing karts in Europe. There are different paths to top level motorsports.
It doesn't matter where she finishes just like it doesn't matter for Junior. Junior lives off his Father's name, and Danica lives off her looks; it's not about the finishes or championships. Hell, Junior has been the most popular driver EVERY YEAR since the greatest driver in the history of NASCAR died.
She will not finish in the top ten and will not make the chase but will still make a retarded amount of money this year for being mediocre; it is what it is.

Most of the time Sarah Fisher and Danica were racing together Sarah was an owner driver even when Sarah wasn't driving for herself she never went to a top tier team.Really? LOL Sarah Fisher has no wins, one pole, and a handful of Top 10 finishes in her career... never finished a season with a higher spot in the standings than 17th, including the years when her and Danica were both running Indy (in which Danica consistently qualified and finished better, and consequently placed higher in the standings by the end of the season)

Sarah Fisher has rarely qualified better than Danica, and pretty much only finishes better than her if Danica wrecks. Fisher hopes and dreams for Danica's worst finishes... lol get real.
She's the only other IRL convert that is female. You can't compare Danica to Sam Hornish or JPM and you can't compare Danica to Jennifer Jo Cobb either.
Be nice!:beer:
