Apparentally some ppl would rather just go with the flow instead of taking a close look themselves and realizing that all of this "SM bumped DES on the last lap sending him into the wall" is incorrect. Ever looked at it frame by frame on a DVR? Anyone that isn't blind can clearly see that it was RW taking the air off of DES's car, not SM bumping him, that caused him to lose control. |

The issue isn't who did what. The issue is that it happened five years ago and still a large group of fractionally witted fans refuse to get on with life. |

Sterling didn't race yesterday, he was talking about Schrader cutting a tire. Neither of them caused Dale's death btw. don't let the fact's get in the way of their delusional drivel. Besides, anyone who continues to believe either Marlin or Schrader had anything to do with Dale's death doesn't know a bit about racing nor do they have a lick of common sense ~ it's no use even trying to get through to them. You're right, Julia. I should know better than to take the bait, and that's all it is good for, getting a rise out of people. that's all most of them or after, pretty much..... either that or they want to expose their ignorance and lack of understanding of the sport. It's one thing to watch a race, and it's another thing to understand whats going on while your're watching it. It's threads like this one that separate the two groups. Anyway, forget the morons, and enjoy the race today.... it seemed like a real long off-season this year. I'm so ready for that green flag to drop... ![]() LMAO @ "It's one thing to watch a race, and it's another thing to understand whats going on while your're watching it" Yeah boy, it's tough understanding a NASCAR race. LOL! |

Let me ask you a question, what was the cause of DES's car getting loose on the last lap causing him to lose control and hit the wall? |

Be careful with your answer, your understanding of NASCAR races is at stake. |

It been the issue since 5 yrs ago. I can't believe that so many ppl STILL can't see that the reason DES lost control, was because Rusty took the air off of his spoiler. SM didn't have anything to do with it. When it first happened I also thought SM bumped him but after seeing the replay over and over, I realized that wasn't the case. And no, I'm not blaming anyone, it's plate racing. Like TS said, someone might get killed today. I was a HUGE DES fan, but I do have to say, the holding up of 3 fingers yesterday is just a little spooky to me. Almost as spooky as the ppl that think Elvis is still alive. |

LOL! it does seem to be a difficult task for those who continue to blame anyone other than Dale himself for the accident. Let me ask you a question, what was the cause of DES's car getting loose on the last lap causing him to lose control and hit the wall? it has always seemed to me that there wasn't any actual contact with another car that caused him to lose control, but rather the air was taken off the spoiler. But, even *if* there had been contact, it still would not necessarily be the other driver's fault. Dale was blocking and there is an excellent chance that you are gonna get tapped while doing that. Dale Earnhardt knew that as well or better than anyone out there, but chose to take the risk anyway. IOW, either way you look at it, I believe Dale was at fault for his own accident. Be careful with your answer, your understanding of NASCAR races is at stake. lemme guess.... if you agree with me, I pass ~ if not, I fail... ![]() |

Well, he's not exactly around to root for anymore, is he. So why don't you get a life. What's done is done. Get over it and move on. |
