Stop stealing quotes from the press conference : )

I would love to see him at Gibbs, would be a great fit with Hamlin and
TS.
not stealing from the press conference...this was the big whole
picture what i thought might happen if jr didn't start his own cup
team...first i really did think jr would start his whole team...but
after he said that was their 3rd & last option, this is really the
only option out there..

jr says he will stay in a chevy..there are only 3 top chevy teams..
hendricks is full-cut mears is the only possibility
rcr can go 4 cars but jr will not be locked in first 5 races or maybe
even after that
gibbs makes the most sense-jr locked in & on a great team...even
though i am not a TS fan...

Well, I am a TS fan so I would be VERY pleased to see him there. And
TS's tutelage would be a great asset for Jr.

I absolutely agree with you. I'm just trying to put myself in Joe Gibbs'
head here. It might not seem like a major concern to some folks, but I
think it's something that you have to weigh.

Don't the Pettys have a policy of no alcohol logos of any type on their
cars, which cost them Busch contigency money in the past?

As I recall, it was more because of Richard's respect for his mother, who
didn't approve of alcohol.

DEJ could get locked into Top35 if RCR or JGR
pulled a Ginn--MM in Nemechek's T35 car,
Nem to new no pts car.

Nope. Only one place Jr will be going. Everything else is pretty window
dressing. He's going to Childress to drive the 3. If someone has to be
moved out of a car to do it, that will happen. This one is not only a no
brainer, there's no chance of it not happening/

I beg to differ, and I hope I'm wrong. As a longtime Earnhardt Sr fan, as
well as a fan of Richard Childress, I do NOT see Jr driving the 3 next year.
Maybe he'll be in the Childress camp, he'll definitely bring Budweiser with
him, but it won't be a Red Bud 3 next year...just my .02 worth.

That's probably non-negotiable.

The amount of dollars this would generate for him might sway his beliefs
a tad.

Agreed, Jr want to be his OWN man. That is part of the reason for
leaving DEI in the first place.

He's gonna have enough pressure on w/o driving the 3. (if he goes to
RCR)

Possible he won't be in the 3 next year but he will be in it eventually. If
not next year, the next.. No question about it. The only reason it would't
happen next year is they would decide collectively to let it sit a year and
the teams adjust and gel. He'll be in the 3
