Kurt Busch

So all the NASCAR fans this week witnessed something we havn't seen in a long time. Kurt Busch got fired (or suspended) from the 97 car.

I am not a Kurt Busch fan, and at first thought he was a complete jerk for what he did. As the week went on it turns out he was not drunk and had maybe one beer. But, he still got cocky with the Sheriff's deputies that pulled him over. Not a good place to do that, when you are in the county where the Sheriff makes his inmates where pink underwhere, sleep in tents and eat green bolgna.

Kurt thought he was larger than life and screwed himself. Think about it, if you are not a NASCAR fan, you do not know who he is.

But, it looks like the Sheriff in AZ was doing everything he could to make himself known nationwide.

Also, looks like Jack Roush saw a great opportunity to get back at Kurt for wanting out of his contract. Plus Jack had a bad week with the new rules NASCAR dished out.

To me, I see too things. First, Kurt pushed the envelope too far once again, and hopefully has learned his lesson this time. Second, Jack Roush wanted revenge and by a string of luck, got it.

Whould Kurt have gotten canned if he was still contending for the title? I think not.

Oh well, go Kenny Wallace this week. I was hoping Todd Kleuver would get a shot, but I guess Kenny is a bigger name right now...
