		<description>I&#039;m surprised Costner didn&#039;t call the King &quot;Richard Pretty&quot;.  A huge fan of NASCAR for years!!???  Right Kevin!  What an IDIOT!  I threw something at the TV when he came out with that stupid Terminator!

Have to agree with Mr. Lyons.  The nation makes every excuse for Jr. but I have come to the conclusion that the blame falls on Dad.  He&#039;s not here to kick Jrs. butt and put the fear in him if he screws up.  Jr. got into the sport to get his dads attention and approval.  That&#039;s the fire that helped him win two Busch championships.  That fire is gone and it&#039;s not Jrs. fault, Teresa&#039;s fault, Tony Jrs fault or the nations fault. It&#039;s just a fact of life and death.  I think Teresa tried to be the task master with Jr. but he wasn&#039;t going to take it from anyone but his dad.  I agreed that Teresa and he needed a time out from each other, but he lost me when he went to Hendricks.  He may have thought that he needed the warm fuzzy, give me a hug, big guy, kind of owner, but that&#039;s not working either.  Jr. is a nice guy with a huge following and one of the top 12 drivers in the sport but there&#039;s not going to be another Cup championship with an Earnhardt name on it.</description>

		<description>I was a fan of Dale Sr. and I have held out hope for Jr.to be a threat to win a championship but something is missing in his fabric.The missing element could be &quot;the eye of the tiger&quot; or it could be something else.I am now of the belief that Jr. will not win a championship in 2009 and he will not win a championship in 2010 or 2011.It is not for lack of resources which are available at Hendrick Motor Sports.Jr. is the &quot;prince-of-popularity and the king-of-T-Shirt sales&quot;and he is content to wear this mantel.It is just too darn hard to work to win a championship in the current enviroment.As Jr.states,all races should be reduced to two hours.After that period of time Jr. has difficulty staying focused.</description>
