I'm just an observer not an umpire ....I can't make any judgments or rulings. However as an observer I observe a topic so undeserving of consideration it wreaks of yesterdays fish, so tainted of unworthy speculation that it reminds oneself of intellectual affront, or should I say "an" intellectual affront. Or as the guys down at the gin mill like to say "the unmentionable question of a lassies' good fortune brought about by proposed reputation".

You've done a great job of observing IMO . So far 4 pages talking about Danica , I guess there's nothing more important going on.

"But it's the system that's the problem, not Patrick. She played it perfectly, regardless of what she has or has not done on the race track." From the quoted Hughes Net article.

That says a lot to explain the state of NASCAR. Both Danica and Robby are playing the game as the system is currently set up. It may not be fair, but it is what it is.

I get tired of hearing about Danica being such a marketing machine, as if she's the only one who does it. Look at all the top drivers in NASCAR, who doesn't whore themselves with commercials, magazines and other crap?
