Impressive/Unimpressive - Richmond:
The Chase Is On September 8, 2008 Joe Jacobs
- SCR Impressive: Jimmie Johnson: It was not total
domination but its just about time for the domination to begin. I think the fall will be Jimmie Johnson returns to glory. David Reutimann: Led a bunch of laps and was not shabby, a better pit crew and we may have seen a first
time winner Sunday. Kyle Busch: Yeah I’m sure the Jr. Nation is happy
because Dale Earnhardt Jr. finally caught up to him to crash him. But getting crashed and going a lap down, then coming back
to finish 15th is not to bad. Not sure if he can finish off the season and knock Johnson off but its going to be
fun to watch. Dale Earnhardt Jr.:
I was impressed that Earnhardt actually did not do the sportsman thing for a change and knocked someone out of the race on
purpose. Now you could be lucky the chase starts next week and points count even more, but I am sure Busch will still get
his revenge.
East Carolina Football: Well
I am alumni of ECU and I have not had much to cheer about over the last few years but two weeks ago they upset then number
17 VT Hokies then Saturday they upset then #8 WVU Mountaineers. My pirates are ranked for the first time since 1999. So since
they are #14, GO PIRATES!!!!!!!!!! Unimpressive: Tony Stewart: A great race was nullified when you trashed the pit crew. I know you are leaving Joe Gibbs
Racing but you better enjoy good runs because next year looks like it may be a long one. Elliott
Sadler: Well once again he was an accident waiting to happen. Tony Stewart was right; any one near you is at fault when
you crash them out of the race. Chip Ganassi: You kept Juan Pablo but let Dario
Franchitti go. Now personally Dario is nice, and probably can get fans and more sponsors. Dario did not have a fair chance
as he was in sub-par equipment I don’t think he could have been a champion but he could win some races and contend from
time-to-time. Ray Evernham: He
was a great crew chief, one of the best of all time, but as a owner or co-owner he is not very good. He rehired Elliott Sadler
(I won’t go in to that at this time) and let Patrick Carpentier become a free agent, and now Carpentier will probably
go without a ride. Carpentier is a good driver, not a problem like Sadler. But you know more than I do…
