Most Hated Nascar Drivers

Okay, those other threads about the most hated athlete inspired me to start one about Nascar drivers. Who are the drivers you can't stand? Tell me how you really feel. My list goes like this:

The brothers Busch - total idiots who think the racing world revolves around them. "Officer, do you know who I am?"
Jimmy Johnson - "I didn't cause that wreck, he checked up"
Jeff Gordon - although he doesn't seem to be as annoying as he used to be

Re: Most Hated Nascar Drivers

Okay, no one has replied so I think I'll chat with myself. Well, Smoke842, I think I have to agree with you 100%. You make some valid points. Way to go, Smoke842!

Re: Most Hated Nascar Drivers

Well, thank you Team Yates. 1 more post after this and I'll reach the magic number. Right, Ross? I hope you didn't change the number from 30.

Re: Most Hated Nascar Drivers

Anyone who drives a Dodge or a Ford (Pettys excluded) Tony Stewart even though he drives a Chevy. Dale Earnheart because everyone talkes like he is a god but was one of the dirtiest drivers ever. This should cause some comments. I really don't dislike any driver that much.

Re: Most Hated Nascar Drivers

Way to go, Smoke

You do know that I can raise the number on that Junior level... don't you?

Seriously, will probably bump it up after we've grown as a community a bit more. But you'll be in good shape, promise

I'm not going to say I hate anyone, I just have my favorites. Although JJ, ,JG and Kyle Busch are at the bottom of the barrel, and it doesnt matter to me what brand they drive.....I dont like 'em and its NOT because they are in a Chevy, its because they're arrogant punks and Kevin Harvick is gaining ground on them in the punk department.

Oh, no, I've worked so hard to get to 30. What's the next one, or is there one? Btw, you didn't tell me who your least favorite driver(s) is.

Re: Most Hated Nascar Drivers

Hate is such an ugly emotion but if JG and JJ locked bumpers and hit the wall together, I wouldn't complain about it. Ditto for the Busch brothers.

Re: Most Hated Nascar Drivers

This is a tough one.

Are we judging both their media personalities and driving style? If it's driving style, I would say Stewart, for his "practice one-way, preach another" approach. But this is a tough area to judge.

Media personalities is much easier for me.

Matt Kenseth
Jeremy Mayfield
Mark Martin

17, and 19 are just boring/monotone. 6 seems to exaggerate things (i.e. I.... I just..... I just don't know what to say... sniff)

I respect all of the cup drivers, past and present, for the job they do. Some are just better than others at it.

Red face Re: Most Hated Nascar Drivers

Dale Earnhardt Sr. gets my vote... I like his son Jr. but never liked his fathers style of racing... Tony Stewart is reminding me much of him lately... this is why I dislike them...

If they happen to get knocked out of the race they're the first to cry about it... but the first excuse out of their mouths when they do the same to someone else is... "that's racing"... here in the real world we call these people hypocrites...

the reason I expressed above is also why I like the people I do...

Mark Martin is on the top of the list of those I admire most...

Re: Most Hated Nascar Drivers

I can't stand Ryan Newman or Kurt Busch--so I it's really easy for me now that they are both Penske drivers. Both are whiners who can never take responsibility for their actions and put the blame on everyone else.

Kyle Busch would have to go on that list, too. He's a cocky little fellow and much like his big brother.

I don't really mind Tony Stewart, but his "do as I say not as I do" schtick is crap.
