I’ll tell you this; I doubt he would’ve lost that 100 driver’s points if he were with Hendrick this year.

“It had to be said - the man is a crook, regardless of the piece of paper Bill Clinton signed that pardoned him. It extends to his organization. Even though HMS has been caught cheating several times and have a reputation for it (especially Knauss and Jimmie Johnson), they have proven that it pays to cheat, regardless of the consequences. A lot/most teams cheat, but HMS took it to the next level and aren’t shy about it. It’s unfortunate that Jr is waltzing into this atmosphere, but he’s a big boy and knows the kind of people he will be around.”
It is interesting that you would say all of this in defense of a driver, Dale Jr., who was just docked 100 driver points for his team’s, dare I say it?, cheating.
