Spin Cycle

Heh. Chalk up Jeff Gordon's second win in three weeks.

Gordon took the checkered flag at Chicagoland Speedway today after "helping" leader Matt Kenseth out of the way with four laps to go. Double heh. When asked about the bump and run, Gordon said, "I certainly didn't mean to wreck him,'' Gordon said. "But I didn't mind moving him out of the way, either.'' Nice!

Like the Oakland Raiders, Gordon's motto is "Just Win, Baby!" And win he did; for the 75th time in his career. Gordon is now only one win away from tying Dale Earnhardt's mark of 76 victories - and that must make the Earnhardt fans absolutely nuts.

The insane thing about that is that there are a lot of NASCAR fans that can't stand Gordon, yet deify Dale, Sr. News flash knuckleheads: THEY RACE EXACTLY THE SAME WAY! Earnhardt would have bumped Kenseth out of the way, and laughed about it in Victory Lane. And while I'm at it, what's the deal with Kenseth? I like Matt, but he sounded like a teething infant after the race:

"Waaa! Gordon bumped me out of the way! Waaa! That's not fair! Waaa! Jeff Burton saw the whole thing!"

Cripes man, buy a backbone for Christmas, will ya?

  2. Thanks Aleecia. I lost respect for Kenseth yesterday. This sort of thing happens in NASCAR every week. Get over it, Matt.

  3. Maybe Gordon's name should be "Jr."
