When Matt Millan was general manager of the Detroit Lions , yes he did go to every game. That was a sports team , and thats what Teresa is the head of. So I believe she should at least go to some of the races and show some interest. And since you brought it up. When Sam Walton was alive , they say he spent 80% of his time going around to the WalMart stores to see how his business was being run. So , you pretty much proved my point.[/quote] Never said anything about him being at the Lions games, learn to read ;) Teresa is the head of a corporation, not a sports team, and she does go to some of the races. And yes Sam went to some of the walmarts, and even today upper brass spends a lot of time on the road visiting their various stores. However like I said they are never there 100%, and you even agreed with that, proving my point. [quote comment="49576"]To answer your question Fisha.

The only 5 races she has gone to since Sr. died , were races that she accepted some kind of award on behalf of Sr. Besides that , she just straight up doesnt show. And to answer Fisha , I bet you could count the races Roush has missed one 1 hand. I see him on the pit box watching his drivers from Arca , Truck , Nationwide and Cup. He's been there for Eric Darnell / Ricky Stenhouse / Colin Braun's races , just like his Cup drivers races. Harvick said it best. She's an absent owner.

He did not like the direction the team was headed and wanted to correct it. She was very arrogant would not listen and now she no longer owns majority interest and has allot less to show for it. You have always said that she was the brains behind the team and I think that she has proven you wrong. If she was the brains then she would have been successful without SR and JR.
