How many times in a lifetime does one get a chnace to drive full time in Cup or even for a big dollar, successful team owner and businessman like Penske, let alone two (HMS)? And the kid just might attract sponsors which would be a huge plus. I give Brad a lot of credit.

As far as Brad, this is a sport where you gotta make the moves when your stock is hot. Yeah it's easy for the "Armchair QB" to say "Well he should have just waited a year", well put yourself in that position and you would have went to Penske too. Brad isn't dumb, he knows that by this time next year he may have had a completely crappy season and his stock down so low Rick says "we don't want you anymore", or he could get injured and never get a Cup shot.[/quote] Its also easy for some one to say he should go while his stock is high, But it could go the other way and he could flop at Penske and be like so many other young drivers that jumped into Cup to soon and become a foot note in the sport. But if he would stay were he is and he could win a Nationwide championship and get a little more track time His stock could be even higher then it is now. With the way things are in NASCAR and the economy I think he should play it safe and stay put. BTW if i was him I would stay with the people that got me where I was and were willing to get me even further not leave for a unknown risk just to drive cop full time 1 year earlier!

His smartest move would have been to run for the Nationwide championship again next year then take over the #5 or maybe Tony would be ready for the 3rd team in 2011

I really can't believe Stewart didn't work out a deal and go to a 3rd team or something. I know he wasn't looking to add a 3rd team, but you sometimes have to jump when there's an opportunity. I don't see Keslowski fitting in there personality-wise, but he's got some talent. Maybe it had more to do with what Brad was asking for... Who knows?
