Seems Mom, HEAD HONCHO at D.E.I. has been questioning Dale Jr's DESIRE to drive a car.....Hmmmmmmmmm.........Dale may just start looking for a ride elsewhere yet.

Kemo

she's all about commercialism

rcdude37

well he has been sucking it up quite a bit lately... i cant see him getting kicked out of DEI but anything is possible

ScRacing

I think it would be good for him, he has started to become some what of a *****.

smaxx3.3

i don't think he woukd get kicked out of DEI, but you can tell the money has gotten to his head. any of the other teams (except for hendrick) would probally take him in, cause he has ALOT of fans and he can really drive if he wants too. i don't see mom kicking him out tho.

ScRacing

Well im sure that his mom is not the sole owner of DEI so it may not be her choice

smaxx3.3

no she is DEI now, it was left to her from Dale Sr.

ScRacing

But there are people that work for her that own stock in it, and maybe a board controlls 49%

And who said she's kicking him out....he could just walk away.

Now if Toyota were to aquire his talent and youthful reflexes in one of their cars.....then Toyota might do something........

ScRacing

If he had a good team mate and had some motication, i think he definetly could make a few more cup wins.

yea micheal waltrip hasn't helped him alot of races, i like DEI and i am a Dale jr. fan. but as far as im considered waltrip is in the way most of the time.

Well, Waltrip is the Toyota main man now.....and like you say, he's usually in the way, and tore up equipment with DEI....why should that change with Toyota? He'll just be tearing up their cars...and whoever he crashes into....SNA*U. Then there's the rest of the Toota gang...... like I said.....SNA*U !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Systems Normal, All Fouled Up

I think that is an old Air Force term.

The corresponding term for the Navy is FUBAR, Fouled Up Beyond All Recognition

ScRacing

Realy... Becasue we usually use diferent words to express it.

My Feedback: (1)

When the phrases originated.....somewhere around the 1940's, people spoke with a little more decorrum and respect for one another, and found no real need to stoop to the levels of expression so widely used today, and so widely substituted in phrases suc as SNAFU and FUBAR......but younger generations of the last couple of decades have continued to make up many more foul and disgusting abbreviations...

Maybe we can get back on subject now.

Thanks Lightfoot, glad to see at least one person around here that remembers...

Teressa better be careful, because Junior DOES have options. Childress for example... http://www.jacksonsun.com/apps/pbcs....701170326/1006

REVO_RACER

Well beelze, do you think that he'll use the #3 car (because childress has ownership) if he decides to move to childress?

Kemo

soon as toyota stuck their nose in nascar, TARFUN.

smaxx3.3

if he drove Dale Sr. that would be awesome, i was and still am a huge of Dale Sr., i was at daytona when he crashed. i like little E at the time too, so i just kinda went right to earnhardt jr.

ScRacing

No, they retired the number, no one can use it until 5 years after the accident... That said after this year it could be a posibility. JR would be makeing a great choice ot race for childress or hendreck. He would probubly fight harder for some one else then him self, kinda like a job.

REVO_RACER

he died February 18, 2001 and it is January 18,2007, I think that is five years [&:]

How little you know. The number 3 is not retired as NASCAR does not do that as of yet otherwise we would have seen others retired by now, like 43.
Richard Childress does own the number and has to have it renewed every year otherwise he loses it. Nobody would want to use it besides an Earnhardt anyway. Could you imagine another racer using that number? That racer would be hated! It is not used out of respect for Dale because NASCAR doesn't retire numbers. Now you know the facts.
Junior has other irons in the fire as he is working on a race track/amusement park.
Teresa inherited the company from her husband but that doesn't mean that she knows how to run a business empire. No, she has others running the operation.
