Sometimes it helps to think about a subject for a couple of days after I wrote this piece on Wednesday and yet I have still come to the same conclusion. Here’s where I am, on last Saturday night, NASCAR fans saw a good race in Phoenix with COT’s between Gordon, Stewart and Hamlin which also showed Gordon moving Stewart out of the way and going on to victory, no surprise there and he even said it in victory lane.
Now I had no idea that Jeff Gordon had tied Earnhardt’s record and then I saw Gordon driving around with a #3 Earnhardt flag including fans throwing beer cans and etc at him and I was shocked, of course once I heard that Gordon had tied Earnhardt’s record, well I understood it a little more.., but like I said before, I had took it in and then moved on by Sunday morning. Since the Earnhardt family including Dale Jr. was cool with it, so was I and that it…Now I would have rather seen a tribute to the great Dale Earnhardt this Sunday at Talladega before the race and if Gordon is in it, that’s ok too. That would have been a lot better and fans would have known why. That’s my thoughts.
