Dale Jr and his problems ...

Now if this thread os gonna be about JJ v Shrub,I well go for JJ any day of the week,he gets things done with out the drama that Srub brings.As far as Jr is concerned,he is a good driver,but there are a bunch of things are blamed on luck/racing incidents.Now he has had his share of stupid things like speeding in the pits/missing his pit pox that sort of thing,but the rest is what I call racing incidents.They happen,Jr has been getting more then his share it seems.

Jnr on one of his favourite tracks was running a strong 30th and then......

Jr. was minding his own business and got caught up in someone else's mess. This year has been a disaster, and while his mental edge was lacking focus earlier in the year, the last few weeks have shown he has had little luck either....

Mark, when are you going to stop paying attention to those who pay no attention to the actual racing and their only intent is to stir the pot on Jr.

We know Dale Jr. has the most fans. I think the second biggest group of fans out there is the Junior haters.

just one of those years, much like Harvick is having, nothing going your way, it happens to everyone, look at all the overpaid baseball/basketball/football/hockey players who suck it up on game days. it happens to everyone.

at least he's not being a total moron and getting caught with drugs or anything

Get those glasses back on Muggle. Jnr is almost 1000 pts off the chase in 21st place LOL. Theres a beer swilling Aussie and some young kid in his 1st Nascar season doing better than him

I'm paying attention to the racing too

Was this the same car/team that Shrub had when he was with Hendrick?If so,then that is a part of the problem,Jr needs some time to build a good relationship with the team,and the team with Jr,meaning you cant change a crew chief midseason or when ever and expect good results.

I dont hate Dale but as I have said for awhile now, he is overrated. He is an average driver in the best equipment but cant get it done. He doesnt appear to be mentally focused this year, I agree. Im not sure what is going on with him.

He will never be in the same class of drivers as Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson, Carl Edwards, Kyle Busch, Tony Stewart, etc.
