Yawn.
Seriously! I can’t wait for him to start crying about Mikey during the big race to. Yikes.
Fox needs to get a handle on the announcers and their biased comments on THEIR fav’s all the time.
FOX: PLEASE tell your announcers that the race is with the LEADERS, not Gordon and Johnson ALL THE TIME! God I just want ot mute the TV with their nonstop talk of those two. Don’t they know there are 41 OTHER GUYS out there?
People: DW is a legacy in his own right. To have your brother in the race is cool, and yes, people will look after and say something about their own family.
I’d take DW over Rusty and that Brad Doughrty guy (who has the personality of a loaf of bread) anyday.
BOOGITY, BOOGITY, BOOGITY! Let’s go Gatorade 125 Duel racing, boys!
Tex
DW is nothing more than a TOYOTA comercial! I’m sick of him and his stupid Boogity Boogity Boogity!
