Time for the old boy to give it up.

Not Yet

Time to give it up, he's not too bad in the booth

ok... here goes.. golffan and yoda .. why should he hang it up? hey if he wants to race and he can get a ride let him go.... if some youngster wants the ride then let him earn it... i am not a big fan of all these youngsters showing up in cup and thinking they are the second coming of god almighty, they need to learn respect for the guys who were doing this while the youngsters were still poo pooing green.....yeah he wants to retire and he has nothing left to prove but why should he cater to all the naysayers who holler hang it up.... he can still get the job done and he has forgotten more than most of the youngsters will ever know...

A class act that will be missed. After the Bill Belichick's and Bobby Knight's,I hate to see him go.

A class act...he will be missed if and when he parks it.
He is good in the booth as Yoda said.

REASON # 44 RETIREMENT!!!!!

DJ has not got a thing to be ashamed of --he's been there
and done it.He is a fine gentelman and anouncer.As dr said
if he feels he's still got some race left in him ,,,go for it.
When it's time to sit down,,,go for that to.

Standing up and cheering for what the dr, SLY and JK said.....you three are right on !!
It is sad to him retire from racing. Luckily we will still get to see him.
I have the utmost respect for Jarrett.

It's been almost 30 years and I can't believe my 'ol time favorite, Buddy Baker, still holds the record for running the fastest (177.60mph) Daytona 500 ever.

Anyone over 45 years old should hang it up. Ernhart couldn't quit and look where it got him. What puzzles me is that DE was the most vilified driver in NASCAR while he was alive and after his demise he was worshiped by people who didn't even know what NASCAR was. Hero worship is a funny game.

In 38 years I've cheered for David Pierson, Davey Allison, Ernie Irvin and Dale Jarret. I guess my time has come to find someone else. Good Luck Dale, I'll be pulling for ya at Daytona.

C3- May I recomend Kasey Kahne?

golf fan .... man oh man you are really showing just how much you know about racing... its a good thing your a golfer...
the dr.

Jarrett is a cool old cat... it's a shame MWR tanked last season and he couldn't finish his career on a positive note.

yeah c-3 if you get innow.... you can be on a winning team... but if you wait we will call you a fairweather fan...lol just kidding ..
jackmanrob and I are the resident kahne fans....
hey jackman whats up?
the dr.

Man, that sounds like a eulogy.

Dale is good people. Always has been. I too like him in the booth. I'd rather hear him than Rusty. He has the greatest commericals.
