Yeah, that would be a good solution. I think the #38 is already
taken, so he would be unable to succeed there - just as he failed, and
FAILED miserably, trying to take the #8 from the rightful owner, DEI
motorsports and the lovely, talented, and very excellent businesslady,
Teresa Earnhardt!

Yes, those kids of Dale tried to STEAL DEI from Teresa, but they were
ALWAYS working from a position of weakness. Dale didn't leave them
anything, and left it to that lady who had been so very good to him -
Teresa Earnhardt.

And, not to be a moralist or anything, but those kids of Dale bought
themselves A LOT of bad karma by their actions in trying to STEAL DEI
from Teresa, and playing it out in the press, trying to make people
think Teresa is some monster or something.

She is a very lovely, talented, intelligent, and enthralling lady! No
wonder Dale was so taken with her, and chose to reward her for her
many years of support, which contributed to his GREAT success!

Nice argument, but I don't think Red Bull (or Brian Vickers) would be
too happy with Junior and HMS trying to run the #83

http://www.jayski.com/teams/83.htm

Maybe he could buy if from them for, say $.5M, since Junior and
Hendrick could not come up with the $1M or so that Teresa DESERVED to
get for the number 8.

Yes, Junior loves to sing that song about how he wanted the number
sooo badly in honour of his granddiddy, but why didn't he pony up the
cash if it meant so much to him?

It ain't like he, or Rick Hendrick, doesn't have it!

LOL- Hide quoted text -

What are you smoking, Earl? I never saw anything that indicated
Junior had really strong feelings about the 8. He's ready for a fresh
start, and I think it's the "fans" who are crying for the 8.
Well, not-in-the-swim-of-things Nancy, it was in all the papers that
that is one of the reasons Junior WANTED the number 8 - supposedly to
'honor' his grandpappy. But then, your parents WANTED to have an
intelligent daughter...but they failed miserably, as did Junior and
Hendrick Motorsports when they TRIED to steal the number 8 from DEI.

You aren't blonde, by any chance are you, muffin?

Well, for now, and for as long as the sweet, lovely, and industrious
Teresa Earnhardt wants the number 8 to stay at DEI, that 'tis how long
it shall stay!

Period, paragraph, pffffftttttt!!

Now, Nancy, go out and play in the road, won't you, as your older
brother always encouraged you to do.

LOL!

you HAVE been spanked, and well, Nancy!

Oh, don't worry, Alan, NASCAR does have a handle on it. To the tune
of extorting as much money as they can from anyone they can - car
owners, drivers, fans, media entities such as radio and TV, and
advertisers - getting them twice, once when they sponsor a team, and
the 2nd time when they advertise on media.

Gosh, for someone from 'sportswriterusa', you seem to be a pretty
clueless journalist, my (now) owned puppy dawg!

Yup, and it's not like HMS and Jr do not have a spare 20 mill they
could pay, but rather it's how ridiculous it is to pay that much for
a dang number. At that point, you come to your senses and say it's
only a number; we'll use something else. And, if they pay 20 mill
this time, where does it end. How much will you have to pay next
time. NASCAR really does need to look into this ugly practice and
get a grip on things.

Somewhere's along the line Earnhardt said he wanted #81, which
is apparently somehow significant.

The issue, I think, lies with all the outstanding contracts that
various folk have with DEI to make souvenier what-nots with the
#8 on it. I presume DEI and HMS couldn't find an equitable way
to either compensate DEI for taking over those contracts, or allow
DEI to continue to market the #8 in some fashion.
Well, you are partially right 'John'. Hendrick MotorSports wanted to
try to steal the number 8 from DEI by making a ridiculous, way-to-low
offer. And, just as the children of Dale Earnhardt were unsuccessful
trying to steal DEI from the lovely, sweet, and very talented Teresa,
so were Junior and the evil cabal at HMS unsuccessful trying to take
the number 8 from DEI.

all of this has something to do with karma....and Junior and Hendrick
Motor Sports have some of the very worst karma there is. Except for
the EVIL people in the front office of NASCAR. No one shall EVAH
eclipse their evil sins, transgressions, and other indiscretions.

i am glad i could buy you a clue, my friend.....

In the past, NASCAR has been pretty cooperative with the big name
owners in assuring that a wanted number could be assigned.
yeah, but now they have been caught with their hand in the cookie jar,
and are not able to do that (take the number 8 from DEI) which would
bring considerable wrath upon them...not to mention the addition of
that bad karma to the large pile they already have.

I have to comment that it does not seem like the actual number would

Hundreds of thousands of current #8 fans won't buy the #8 without Jr
attached to it. Few fans like a number, for its history, more than
its current driver.
well, only time will tell, Alan Jones, you none-to-bright
journalist....soon you shall see how much people really cottoned to
the evil Dale Jr. and his equally evil siblings in their unsuccessful
quest to STEAL DEI from Teresa, the rightful owner!

Quote:
Once Jr is gone, any remaining agreements would be defunct as the
principle element no longer exists. No one would be at fault. No
one, certainly not HMS or Jr, should be tasked with compensating
anyone. It's just business. Jr didn't renew his contract and DEI's
vendors are now SOL.
Well then, tell Junior to quit crying in his budweiser, and get his
ass into the evil Hendrick cabal then. 'Tis he, and the fans who
follow him around so blindly, as it appears you are, that are crying
in their budweisers..certainly not Teresa or HER company, DEI!

Quote:
Holding a number hostage because your ability to make money with it
has been crippled is vindictive, but I guess that's how Teresa does
business. You're leaving me and I'm going to get my revenge...
Oh, so now you are going to try to make her out as a bitch! You
sexist pig you! But if figures, from someone like you who tries to
ACT as if they are a journalist, and are NONESUCH!

You have now been assimulated, Alan Jones. The Consortium is now your

Since he is a Redskins fan, maybe he wants it because it was Art
Monk's number. Just a guess.
....and maybe what they say about you, tonysterward_02_05ch..., that

your squealings, quite like that of a lemming in the hold of a ship

SimRacer....

you are an idiot, with NO redeeming qualities. I am very quite
sure that the #8 will continue to be a winning number - regardless of
Junior having his ass spanked and sent along as the insolent loser he
is and Budweiser moving along as well.
Your assertion that the number 8 will be worth no more than the
number 49 or the number 78 in one year is a very false one, and just
goes to show what a nincompoop you are.
Plain and simple, you insolent tyke!

LOL

I think their stand on the "price" is one of principle, and
macro-economics: The #8 isn't worth *as much* to anyone as it is to
Dale Junior and Bud. Break those 2 up - which has happened - and its
value spirals downward in a damned hurry. I dare say that the #8 from
2008 forward will be worth no more than say the #49 or the #78.

Now, in a few years, when NASCAR manages to draw in a lot more of the
expendable and grows-on-trees "new fan", that don't know the history,
it may be a different story - depending on what happens in the interim
with that "car" and "team".

The principles of value being looked at here should just be limited to
just 2: 1) Value in use (my point above) and 2) Good will Value (value
based in part on a past owner, driver, or otherwise closely associated
entity - like a sponsor)

These are deeper than a "face value" or one that is based on empirical
data from 2000 to today (since this "history" will end when DEJ leaves
TEI). These are also intangible in any attempt to value it as a going
concern, or any sort of business model appraisal (the typical IRV
approach - For example: What souvie sales of a "new" #8 could ever
compete with the souvie sales from the past 7 years? None, unless
Michael Schumacher or Fernando Alonso climb into the #8 for TEI next
year).

It all boils down to: I imagine that Max and Teresa valued the #8 as
if Junior were still driving it, which isn't a sound valuation
approach since he won't be driving it after this season. And due to
Value in Use and Good Will Value, with the *true* value of the #8
leaving, the value is significantly less in 2008 than it is right now.
Since HMS and DEJ were lobbying for the use of the #8 from 2008 on,
they're looking for *that* value, as they rightly should. It all comes
down to a time-value relationship of money, like the 6 functions of
$1. In as much, TEI wants Present Value money for a Future Use
commodity and I am sure that HMS wanted to pay the Future Value for
the Future Use - which is the logical way to proceed. IMO, HMS must
have as good a team of money people as they do the PHds that prepare
their cars.

Further proof of the validity of Mr Sim's slightly biased posts regarding little E'.
The following eloquent remarks just before Jr's big career announcement two months ago.

"We'll see. I hope it is a mean-spirited hoax. Otherwise, my days
following the sport may be severely short numbered....... But now, Junior going to my least favorite
Chevy team? May very well be the last straw, even if it does greatly improve his chances
for a Cup......" SimRacer 06-12-07

Does this mean we won't be hearing from him anymore in 08'?
............don't bet on it.
