Silly Season is in High Gear Earlier than Ever

I am co-host of the syndicated radio show: ON PIT ROW. Charlie likes to call me an "idiot". I'm not an "idiot"; I just prefer not to let the facts get in the way of my opinions.

California’s wine country applauds Kyle Busch after winning at Infineon Raceway.

Untitled PostEver since the incident with Dale Earnhardt Jr., Shrub has been head of the most wanted list of many NASCAR fans. But in a weird twist, after his win at Infineon, hardly a boo was heard. Could the tide be turning in Rowdy’s popularity so soon? He didn’t even give his signature “brat bow” to the fans.

Overshadowing Shrub’s win could be the breaking news that Mark Martin could be leaving DEI to run for his “last” championship at Hendrick Motorsports. Or will he do a shared ride deal with Brad Keselowski? There are lots of rumors revolving around Martin’s future plans.

This weeks BUZZ ON PIT ROW asks:

What is the probability that Mark Martin will win a championship if indeed he moves full time to Hendrick Motorsports?

NASCAR journalist Dustin Long with the Roanoke Times will join The Pit Crew at 6pm to discuss all these topics.

Give us your opinions and we may use them on this weeks ON PIT ROW. OPR can be heard via live stream from 5-7pm ET, followed by Inside ARCA from 7-8:30 at www.onpitrow.com

    Wonder if it’s got anything to do with the fact that Dale Junior’s finally won a race, so people have just gotten over the whole Richmond incident?

    Tim–

    NASCAR fans get over something like that this quickly? Man i doubt that. Maybe the Northern Cali crowd just wasn’t tuned in to the whole Hate the Shrub” deal.

    I work with a diehard member of Junior Nation and her family isn’t over the whole hating Shrub thing. Then again their blaming the fact that it was a road course.

    Steve-

    You’re an idiot (just helping Charlie out).

    First, many NASCAR fans aren’t hating the shrub, just those fickle @$$3$ of Junior Nation.

    Second, if you were to watch the race, you’d see Kyle ‘Brat Bow’ right after his burn-out. And deservedly so.

    I must have blinked and missed the bow. My bad.

Got something to say?
