Hendrick Motor Sports announces sponsorship deals for the 24 car with Helluva Good Cheese, and Kleenex Softique tissues.

Jeff Gordon is a proven NASCAR Champ and I'm learning to tolerate and EXPECT his whining. But his analogy of a lineman holding in a football game, to that of a NASCAR team fielding an illegal or altered car outside the rules for an entire race, is a bit much. Sorry Jeff, no sale this time.

Perhaps HMS pushes the envelope more than others and therefore gets caught more than others? Duh. "Cheating" has been around since day one, he could have shown some remorse. This sounds like whining, yup

Cry me a river, sissy boy. "Everybody out there pushes the envelope" and goes thru the same tech-inspection. Does everybody get hit for cheating?

Pit road speeding or running over an air hose might be analogous to a 15-yard penalty, it does not make you a "cheater". Illegal mods to the car are more like pumping all of your lineman up with illegal steroids to boost their performance. That would be....CHEATING.

Almost 50 other teams a week seem to have no problem getting through tech on a weekly basis. How about that, Jeff?

So, rules are more like "guidelines". They aren't meant to be hard and fast.

Jeff, if you don't like being labeled a cheater then don't tolerate it in your organization.

Even better, Jeff, how about taking the high road and telling Hendrick that if he doesn't control his people better and prevent cheating on the team then you will quit?

HAHAHAH!!! LOL!!!! No, really, I mean it! HAHAHAAHA!!!!

That'll be the day!

Here's your "I'm a Cheater" sign.

LOL

I think Jeffy would need more than a step-ladder to reach any moral high ground. I think BigTex may be asking a little too much.

Besides, if he left Hendrick's, who would do Jimmy's hair and nails before a race?

I sort of understand what he's saying, but I completely hate his analogy. You can't compare an NFL lineman to a finely engineered racing machine. Just doesn't work.

Sorry Jeff......it's called cheating....

Cheater Cheater Pumpkin Eater

BigTex, that was funny as hell. Football Guru, follow BigTex's example.

Somebody needs to tell Jeff to change his manpon......and to buy a shovel so he can get the sand out of his ****. Cry baby.....

Jeff is supposed to be part of Nascar's 'Elite'. Act like it!! If you represent your team, then make your team represent you. If you don't want to be labelled a cheater, then make sure everyone that represents you on the car does nothing to put you or themselves in the catagory of being seen as a cheater! Complaining about it only produces hot air which continues to inflate the bubble and make it larger than it needs to be . It's done, the penalities handed out, and it will go away (at least until the next time).

Hey gstrdr, that's why they hired Dale Jr.

I'm sure Gordon will be crying, again, as he steps on stage in New York to accept his 5th Championship!!!

H!05: Jr. rarely combs his hair, never shaves, and reportedly likes GIRLS. He and Jeffy/Jimmy will have very little to discuss during the Hendrick Ladies Slumber Parties.

FLETCH: Even if he isn't crying, I know several race fans that will feel like crying. Allowing Hendrick to buy another championship would be a tragedy.

It's more like greasing your jersey up with Crisco than it is holding....and that is considered cheating.

Is hitting another car and spinning them out and possibly causing them to crash, destroy a car and lose major points cheating?

If so "the Intimidator" would be the all-time cheaters cheater.

Gordon is by far not the only driver, Hendrick by far not the only owner who have been penalized or suspended for illegal parts and modifications.
