As soon as I heard JJ and Jeffy were called in, I knew this would end quickly.Quote:

He can appeal but I doubt that it will work. There's no "there" there and never was. Jeremy is over. He doesn't have a pot to P in or a window to throw it out of at this point.
With his IRS problems and expensive lawyers to pay, he would have to hock the pot anyway.Quote:

Even the most vehement defenders of Mayfield on this board and on the phone in shows on Sirius have to run the white flag up and have probably a few months ago...
Jeremy must have found a major infusion of cash to pay celebrity lawyer Mark Geragos for this.
Jeremy would have been so much farther ahead to just admit his addiction, get treatment, and be able to come back to race in NASCAR and get some semblance of career back. Instead, he's just reinforcing his addictive behavior, and crashing and burning in a huge bonfire.
JMHO, of course.
They one of the best ways to tell someone has a meth issue is their refusal to deal with reality and admit any kind of humble values or humility. My god, if ever there was an example of this, you are seeing it now. Assuming he was "framed"..and that is a HUGE assumption, would he continue inspite of the legal beatdown's he has taken already? God no...a sane man would know when to cut his losses and try another way of clearing his name. The fact is, the only defense he and his ambulance chaser lawyers have ever had is to throw mud around. THAT right there tells you all you need to know about this man's guilt. They quit trying to prove how he is innocent a long time ago...Quote:

Sad...get help Mayfield...your delusions are rather sad...
Standard "muddy the waters" move. Just because Brian France is an idiot doesn't excuse Mayfield from being one. I guess his new ambulance chaser hopes he can embarrass NASCAR enough that they will back down. I don't see that happening.Quote:

The Garcias claim that during the 2006 "Allstate 400 at the Brickyard" in Indianapolis, France called NASCAR President Mike Helton and ordered him to "black-flag" Mayfield from his home in California, where France had been drinking that day and was under the influence.
Well, seeing as how Mayfield fell out of the top 35 and was replaced after this race, maybe France was doing a personal favor for Ray Everham. :p
Lol...because we all know that Ray Evernham controls NASCAR in reality..NOT Brian France? Jeremy believes it I am sure....Quote:

It is for everyone in the entire world but Jeremy.
Is this car crash of a story STILL going?
Yes, when you are up against a large rich corporation, legal justice takes years and sometimes decades.Quote:

Oh please. I've got the same feeling about ol' Jeremy as I do about death-row criminals suddenly "finding Jesus". Pure bull. And poor old Jeremy suffering at the hands of a large rich corporation. Right. He failed his drug tests. MULTIPLE times. If it were one time only vs. a large rich corporation I might feel differently. But Jeremy's a druggie who won't admit to a problem. So no sympathy from this poster. All he's doing is wasting my tax dollars.Quote:

As long as the lawyers think they can make some money, they will drag it on forever, particularly if it involves a large corporation. Deep pockets make for attractive targets. It has been less that 2 years since this started, so there is probably still money to milk from this "issue". But as a lawyer once told me, lawyers never lose, but their clients do.Quote:

I'm pretty sure those lawyers will have to take a number and get in line to get paid.Quote:

He's not exactly the sharpest pencil in the cup either.Quote:

Mayfield's Dogs Attack Mail Carrier: When a mail carrier tried to deliver a package too big for Jeremy Mayfield's mailbox, she tried to drop it off at the home's front door, but when she went to the house, police say she was attacked by five dogs. The pit bull-lab mix dogs are currently in quarantine at the Catawba County Animal Shelter. Firefighters said it was at former NACSAR driver Jeremy Mayfield's home where mail carrier Mary Bolton was attacked. Firefighters said she was hospitalized with bite marks and cuts all over her legs, arms and shoulders. Neighbors were stunned to hear news of the attack. Police have confirmed that Mayfield came outside to intervene, scooping up the badly injured carrier and taking her back inside the home. The police chief in Catawba said the dogs are being quarantined for ten days because he is not sure they are up to date on rabies shots. No decision has been made yet on what will happen to the dogs or if anyone will face charges.(WSOCtv.com)(4-23-2011)
