Forget all the Chevys, Fords, Dodges and Toyotas at the Atlanta Motor Speedway. The biggest news Friday was made by a bus, the one that Carl Edwards was thrown under by his fellow Nextel Cup drivers. The fallout from Edwards' confrontation with Roush Fenway Racing teammate Matt Kenseth last week at Martinsville spilled over from YouTube, where the news clip has been viewed 350,000 times, to Sunday's Pep Boys 500. Kurt Busch, no stranger to controversy, landed the most telling verbal blow. He referred to Edwards as "the Carl" and noted the friction within Roush. "He'll give you that flashy smile but at the same time he's got something underneath his breath for you," said Busch, Edwards' teammate with Roush in 2004 and '05.

Oh man-can you believe this (( crap )) Busch of ALL
people telling people Carl is a BAD man - This PUKE
couldn't wipe his A*S*S* in a 1 stall Craphouse without

Thats BEAUTIFUL SLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Talk about calling the pot black? Busch is such as A*S*S*H*O*L*E!!!!!!!!!!! Just goes to show you what a piece of crapcheese that guy is. He's the essence of Dr Jekyl and Mr. Hyde. This whole thing with Carl is so overblown. Kenseth needs his clock cleaned and I'd love to see Carl lay him out. Carl is everybit as competitive as any of those top drivers and when his own team screws with him....time to send a message. Roush is everybit as responsible for keeping things on an even keel including telling his BOY Kenseth to knock off the cheap ****! Perhaps Carl should consider repaying the 17 car on the track and see how he likes it.

Carl is wise ! you never let the man that is mad at you, know how you really feel or what you are thinking, Carl was just saying when he COCKED his arm, I OUGHT TO BASH YOUR TEETH IN BUT YOUR A WUSSIE !! Bottom line, When you have more than two ROOSTERS in the hen house there is always the PECKING order ! Keep the CARE units around till all the drivers leave the track.

Horse face is on roids all he does is lift weights and eats hay OH WILLLLBER!

OH SPICEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

kspice, you're probably one of those overweight men who hates on guys who take pride in themselves by working out and staying fit.. All the while you sit your fat crack on the couch and yell at the old lady....
I hope Kurt Busch is next on The Carl's list!!!

October 27, 2007  11:02 AM ET

Actually I work out everyday like horseface. Then I drive down the street with my hand out the window making the 3 symbol for Earnhardt just like everyone else. Sometimes after yelling at the old lady as you call her I do a logroll instead of a backflip sometimes ill do a tripod into a kip.

October 27, 2007  11:15 AM ET

What do you guys think the response would be if Edwards pulled this move on Earnhardt Jr?

Bud bottles would fly @ #99.

Also...I've heard many times that Kenseth isn't exactly "Mr Clean" on the track. The list of such drivers seems to have dwindled to the likes of Mark Martin and Jeff Burton, and usually Junior, Bobby Labonte, and a couple others. I can't think of anyone else that wouldn't dump someone else in the corner just because.

October 27, 2007  12:00 PM ET

Nasty moods today - dump them on the track Carl

October 27, 2007  02:03 PM ET

They are both screwing the owner.

October 27, 2007  02:21 PM ET

I hope Busch is right, personally. I'd like Carl but he always came across as too squeaky-clean until last weekend.

I'd really like him if he started referring to himself in the third person, as "The Carl"

October 27, 2007  02:53 PM ET

kspice2834.....to answer your Carl-Jr fight question, it would be an even match, then they would move on...I am a fan of both, with Jr being the number one for me, and drivers need to "vent it off" sometimes.......that fake punch of Carl's for Matt was just him making a point without doing any real damage to Matt....I admire him for not taking it further....and I see nothing wrong with that......
.
The topic above makes it sound like a bunch of little kids fighting over a toy and Busch's opinion on anything is totally worthless. Roush needs to have a chat with his boys and get them sorted out like Gibbs did with Tony and Denny.

I agree with LittleE~BigM fan this whole damn thing has been
blowen out of control.the whole thing needs to go away
and get back to racing.
MJM1977 is right also Matt plays a Mr good shoes part, when

What other stories are going on in Nascar right now? Jeff Gordon vs Jimmie Johnson like every year. Did you know they're friends? Then there's silly season but its with the guys that not too many care about jeff green etc. There hasnt been any rocket fuel in any cars lately so atleast its something new and exciting.

 
October 27, 2007  06:12 PM ET

you are 100% right kspice2834 - we all agree that S I doesen't give us
a lot to hassel over on here = it's all the same news most of the
time,, not like the other posts......theres a lot of other Nascar news
but they -S I - can't seem to find it.
