Monday Mornin' "Quarterback"

OK, On Tony Stewart, he DIDN'T do anything wrong to Kasey Kahne. They were both in the wrong place at the wrong time. It's happened tons of times. Problem is the media has made Tony out to be the big bad bully on the tracks and EVERYONE just assumed automatically that he did it on purpose... Throw that in with that whiny butted crewchief of Kahnes and you get fights in the pits. It's disgusting, not the fights- but the reason for it... everyone jumping to the conclusion that Tony is evil. WHY? The media, he has been FOX's whippingboy all season. For what? Granted, he did do some things I haven't agreed with one was bumping Kasey and spinning him. But the other things he's accused of doing I've seen JR do many times and noone has said a thing about. Therein lies the problem; NASCAR is full of "Whats ok for some may not be ok for you" You can see it in the rules, in the enforcement of punsihments(OR LACK THEREOF) and in their calls during key moments of certain races. ie: Certain drivers being victums inrace rules costing wins while other drivers don't get called on the rule infraction. It's shameful, I believe that NASCAR should say" IF you do this you will be fine/suspended" then stick to it weather it's JR or Tony or Spencer! NASCAR has a habit of being blind when it comes to certain drivers and events. While turning a blind eye to their pets may make them happy eventually they will lose fans because of it and then where will they be? Fans made that sport. OK I'm done ranting, just for the record though, had Mark Martin not lost yet another engine he would have been in contention for the win.
