Feels Lagano punted him at Kansas. After Keslowski took him out of contention yesterday, it guess Matt felt it was time to balance the books.

That was a lot of blocking. I would have hit him too. No way defending logano though, because he's logano.

'Dega was the first race I've watched at all since Daytona in the spring, and watching the farce that was JR coming second in the race and not advancing further solidified my belief that NASCAR has lost the plot and in a desperate bid to stem the viewer numbers falling off the cliff they've cornholed the sport to death.

I don't see that Kenseth's block at Kansas didn't warrant being punted from the lead. Even if the bumper was the way to go, there are ways to do it without spinning the other guy. Left rear corner of the car mid corner has 1 intent... wreck him. He does that for a few laps... maybe but not once, especially with lapped cars in play. An a little side note, by winning the week before, Logano had already clinched a spot by winning the week before. I know that a win is a win but Logano killed Kenseth's season, plain and simple. The following week at Talladega, he chopped the nose off of Kenseth's car entering pit road at Talladega, again in a race where Logano had nothing to gain and Kenseth had everything to lose. Logano is a douche who deserved everything he got yesterday. My only hope now is that he doesn't pull out a win in these next 2 weeks. |

Logano caught him due in part to the traffic, looked on 1 straight... then put a nose through the bumper. |

Logano should see the reaction of the fans and realize that he is not a fan favorite and is hated by many.

Where you finish is how much you get paid. If you let one guy run you all over the track and block you.. then everyone else will think it's ok also. Put a few in check and they will all think twice and maybe not do it again. I bet he would not have tried that crap on Earnhardt Sr.. |

Dale Jr has been listed by Forbes as the highest paid NASCAR driver for as long as I can remember. It's not because he's winning more races. As a better argument... Danica was somewhere near the top of the list as well. There's no way in hell that's due to on track performance. Logano didn't dump Kenseth for a paycheck. We'll obviously never know for sure, but had it been reversed and it was Kenseth passing Logano (the very first incident before the drama), I think it is a fairly safe bet that Kenseth wouldn't have spun him at that point. As I said earlier... after a few times, MAYBE in the last corner going for a win, after something more aggressive... maybe. But certainly not 1 front stretch block and then spin him out. Was it the World's dirtiest race move? No, but turning Kenseth in that situation certainly wasn't a move that is going to get him any respect. There's a line between not being pushed around and becoming the aggressor. Speaking of which, interesting comments from none other than Jeff Gordon on the subject: From NASCAR.com Quote:

Good grief dood.. You brought up a whole lot of topics in your entire post above! and yeah they all kinda tie into one, but not really a simple answer. And no.. I'm not endorsing bonzai kamikaze racing without restraints or rules. I believe in clean racing and being a true sportsman, and dislike a lot of things I hear about some racers doing. ..let me heal up from last nights hangover and I'll try to explain my thoughts better. |
