You know, I have been a huge Rick Hendrick fan for many, many years, but this whole Hendrick/Junior love fest we see every sunday is just flat out starting to make me sick. I mean what the heck is Junior, Hendrick's illegitimate son or some kinda crap. I mean while he is messin around with "The Juniors", Dale and Tony, he has got another driver setting the track on fire heading for a third championship in three years! I have never understood why Hendrick brought in Junior, and I understood even LESS why he brought in Tony Eury. I mean all you ever hear is about how bad Eury is, so why the heck did he bring him in? Then again I guess Junior wouldn't come without him. I stand by my opinion all along in that the reason Hendrick brought in Junior is because he saw dollar signs. Who cares that he let the future of the business, Kyle Busch, go to make room for Junior, its all about the marketing dollars Junior can bring in right? Is that what the sport has come down to? Is it more about who sales the most merchandise and not about who is the best driver? I think in Rick's eyes it has gotten to that point. Think about it, when is the last time you saw Rick in Jimmie Johnson or Jeff Gordon's pit? He some how shows up in victory lane for Jimmie's wins, but during the race he is Jurnior's head cheerleader. It all just makes me sick!
