    Stewart didn't race long enough to cause Kenseth any "harm."

    Last time I saw Matty Wah Wah, he got punked by Kurt Busch and Jeff Gordon in the space of two minutes. Those two could stand on each other's shoulders and not be 6-foot tall.

    Wow, we're ragging on Kenseth now, too!? Geez, there's another guy I don't have a problem with. What's wrong with Kenseth?

    Just in case you couldn't read it the first time I posted it.


    Matt's a good guy, nowhere near as dull as made out to be. A very solid driver. Interesting that he's been overshadowed by Jr. yet he won the ROY the year they came in together and won a championship first.

    But he went way overboard, in my mind, on the woe is me and I can't believe he bumped me shit at Bristol. Then he nailed Gordon.

    It's Bristol. Shit happens. Shut up.

    Zing!
    (And I'd be happy to run Jaime McMurray into the wall for you any day.)

    Moddy, you crack me up sometimes. Maybe it's because I see the word "Moderator" and think stiff, on the fence, impartial. Then you unleash stuff like that, I love it.

    Although you do go overboard with "who beat?" But that's part of the charm. ;D

    Stiff, on the fence and impartial I ain't.

    And going overboard is part of the "who beat" back story.

    I'm not around those guys often enough to know for sure about a lot of them. When I mentioned my surprise about Matty Wah Wah whining, I was told I needed to stick around more.

    Tell me you're not really wondering why Kenseth has been overshadowed by anyone, let alone someone with the last name Earnhardt?
    He has the personality of a grapefruit stuck up somebody's ass. He's gone through the Roush Racing personality remover.

    Not wondering why at all. Just saying he has been, yet he has better credentials than The Annointed One. That's all.

    And he's not as dull/Roushed as it seems. He's not a bad guy and he's pretty thoughtful. His long, rambling answers contain some good nuggets, not like a lot of guys who go on forever and say nothing.
    He just needs to grow a set.

    Carl Edwards does back flips.
    Jamie McMurray is pretty chatty, animated.
    Biffle? I've never found him to be dull.
    Kenseth? See above.
    Martin? Yeah, well. They can't all be chatty Kathys.

    Overall, I'd rate the Roush crew pretty good.

    Roger that, Moddy.

    The Roushkateers are far from the worst of the offenders among the emotionally/intellectually neutered crowd in the garage.

    On last year's media tour, Poole asked McMurray about what would be the ideal gift a girl should get a guy for Valentine's Day (he was getting stuff for someone in the life section or whatever).

    McMurray said, "I don't know," shrugged, then mouthed, "Blow job?"

    So he's chatty AND bright.

    Not sure yet if he's a good driver. But I like the way he thinks.
