Over-rated Drivers

I've been doing alot of thinking about who are the most overrated drivers in NASCAR. I get tired of seeing the same dudes on all the commercials. We all know that Michael Waltrip is a commercial whore. But he's not overrated. The broadcast crews don't talk about him all the time. But there are a few that get way too much TV time.

Dale Jr. is way overrated. He is a mid pack driver at best. I cheered for him when he was in the Busch series and won his 2 championships. He has just gone downhill. The guy is the poster boy of NASCAR and good for him, he's set for life. I just can't help but think that his Daddy is rolling over in his grave. "Dale Jr. you best get that door for me" c'mon. Napa, Wrangler, etc..... Just drive dude and I bet you'd make the chase next year.

Kasey Kahne. What is Ray Evernham thinking? I'd fire him if he has another year like this one. No wonder his crew cheif is looking for a better job.

Ryan Newman. Will someone please tell this guy that races are won on Sundays, not Fridays. Why would you put all your effort into the qualifying setup, rather than the race setup. How many times does he get the pole and get passed in the first few laps of the race.....

These are the drivers I think are way overrated. Let me know what you think. I bet I get crucified.....
