03.10.08 TONY STEWART DIDN’T LIKE THOSE TIRES

It was a historic weekend in NASCAR, as Kurt Kyle Busch's win at Atlanta in a Toyota marked the first time that a foreign car company won a Cup race since Jaguar in 1954.  But the real story was Goodyear and its shitty tires that all but prevented side-by-side racing that the track in Atlanta (apparently) usually provides.  Top-ten finishers like Dale Earnhardt, Jr and Jeff Gordon were critical of the tires' performance, but Tony Stewart — as usual — was sure to put it in the most insulting, awkward manner on national television.

Even if you don't care about NASCAR — and let's face it, you probably don't — it's always nice to hear a guy wearing twenty-plus corporate logos on his firesuit disparage the company that makes his tires.  That's a man with a heady regard for synergy.

So I guess Tony Stewart isn't having a good year so far.

Huh? huh? Nothin?

Fuck you guys, I don't have to impress y'all.

He said that Goodyear should pull out.  I half-laughed.

I suppose it's "Busch" league only for NASCAR fans, eh?  The rest of us generally call it "bush league."

I simply can't believe I mixed up two white men with the same last name and four-letter first names that begin with K who do the exact same thing in a sport I barely pay attention to.  Simply unthinkable how that happened.

That said, I do appreciate the correction.

There wasn't any wrecks so the race sucked! I think they should race on a track made of ice. Now that would be cool.

I for one am just shocked Tony Stewart found something to whine about after a race.  I'm pretty sure there's no precedent for that.  The only way that bitchfest would've been cool is if he called 'em Goodqueer tires.

This is awesome… it was kind of like when Urlacher got hit with a fine for endorsing Vitamin Water in a post-game interview… but instead of "drink vitamin water" he was saying "gatorade can suck a cock"

Its a pun, maybe I should just use monosyllabic  words for you so you could get it.

WTF Tony, if Good Year pulls out we won't have that awesome blimp shot where you can't see shit thats going on, but for some reason they think people like to look at things from space.

@ sparty - Um, yeah, I was kinda going along with it.  And every word save "leather" was monosyllabic in your first comment, so I don't really know how you can dumb it down any more for me.

uff - the question is: does sparty know what monosyllabic means, or did he just see Mallrats?

In all fairness to sparty, I laid it on a little too thick (or too subtly?) in my first comment.  Apologies for the confusion.

I hope Chupa Nibre is kidding because if not he's completely illiterate.

And judging by his expanding waistline, one helluva appetite.

Get back on the Subway diet, lardass.
