Did anyone else think twice after seeing the hat Jr. wore after the Bristol race? Very seldom do you see him in a hat that wasn't #8 or DEI. Saturday he wore a blue Michigan hat. Was that a statement towards Teresa at DEI? Or was it a hint of his car color next year??? (yes photog, I am grasping at straws, but hey, its fun trying to figure this stuff out!)
I also noticed that when he was "encouraging" his fans to stop giving Teresa a hard time he couldn't look straight into the camera? Kind of seems like he wasn't real serious about what he was saying! (or feeling) The personable Dale Jr we are all used to wasn't present during that part of the interview.
I have heard lots of stuff about Jr driving the #38 next year. I'm not sure what I think of that number. I get the meaning- 3 for his dad, 8 for him. I still liked the thought of 08 in 2008. Wonder when we will know for sure!!
What are Jr's chances of still making the Chase? Does anyone besides me still think he has a chance? I'll be looking forward to hearing from you!
Hello as a Dale fan, I want him to get his win in 2008. The year is so full of mechanical failures for DEI too numerous to count! Dale was driving his azzz off at Bristol, and will continue to do so. I dont agree that Tony Jr should go with him to HMS, I think Allan Gustavson, Kyle's present crew chief, is better, the cars he puts on the tracks weekly shows it. The present races Kyle is driving does not show the cars ability, as he is mad at HMS and just cruzin' through the races, not really trying in my book. But Dale is!!! He has heart, determination and loves his fans! He is a southern gentleman, and is honest above all! That is what I like about him the most!
Thank you for taking the time to read this and hope to hear from you on my blog, Mary The Dalles Oregon
Hey Fellow Jr Fan! The hat he was wearing was not Michigan hat, it was from his HS, Mooresville HS Blue Devils. Still not sure what message he was sending with it though except perhaps support as they return to school??
For those of you who love Jr. you should definitely check out his social networking site
www.infieldparking.com
As for him not being serious about the comments about Teresa, I disagree, he was dead serious and very upset about it, esp. the negative effect it is having on Taylor (his youngest half sis).
He is the only one I root for but I think he has too many distractions and way too many engine problems to make the Chase now unless something catastrophic happens to Kurt, Martin or Kevin.
I am a 36 year old woman from a very small town in Montana. I am a huge Nascar fan. People ask who my driver is and I say Earnhardt, whether Sr. or Jr. I love em both. I have so much interest in the races and drivers. My car has #8 and #3 decals all over it. So does my husbands. Our sons play sports all school year - Football, Basketball, and Tennis. Our family loves most all sports. If you are interested in what I do for a living- I am a "Certified Memorialist" and a graphic designer. In easy terms- I make headstones and also signs. Building signs, car decals and signage, cabinet signs etc. etc. Being a graphic designer and working with vinyl you can imagine what our vehicles look like!! Anyway, Everyone have a good day. lol
