Cry me a river...

okay, I'm writing this in the heat of the moment but I have to voice some disgust.
Wah, wah, wah Junior nation.
The whole postrace thing tonight made me laugh.

First of all, it was one of those racing deals.
Mind you, I have NEVER been on the Kyle Busch bandwagon. Infact, I tend to think the guys a jackass but I don't blame him for that wreck. Happens ALL the time at Richmond and that's why we all love going there. The drivers love it and we love it. It sure as hell beats all the cookie cutter snooze fests we normally have to tolerate.
So the next thing I see on the screen is some big meathead from Jr's pitcrew in Busch's face.
What the heck was he doing? I could beat up Shrub easily myself so they send over a guy whose about 6'5" to give him shit?
That's brave.

Then they interview Junior.
I'm sorry but I have no sypathy for poor, sad, multi-millionaires.
When was the last time Ken Schrader won? Or Bobby Labonte? Or Paul Menard? Or Scott Riggs?
Give me a freaking break.
There are guys out there who haven't had a win in a longer time than Junior.
Here's something to think about...maybe it's NOT the equipment after all!

Now before you start thinking I hate Junior; you're wrong. I don't.
There are drivers on the track tonight who aren't even sure they'll have a ride in a few months...his little "no win" streak isn't THAT freakin bad.
He's still selling tons of merch, fans are still stalking him and he's making millions.
Win or no win, life for him is not even CLOSE to that bad.
Boo, hoo, hoo.
Maybe Kleenex should sponsor him.
