Danica Patrick or John Wes Townley?

Recommended Posts

They're both pretty terrible, and only as high in professional motorsports as they are because of money. Danica with GoDaddy and whatever men's magazine she's in this week, and John Wes with his daddy's chicken shop as a sponsor.

I believe they've both managed to complete exactly one Nationwide race without wrecking this season, and it got John Wes pulled from the car mainly because he doesn't have an army of angry men with erect phalluses backing him up.

Average finish 2010 --

Danica 30.5 (note: Danica scored a career high 30th this week to push that up from 34.0. Only 31 cars officially finished this weekend.)

John Wes 22.3

So, which one is worse?

I'd have to say John Wes. I mean, JR Motorsports isn't a crappy outfit, they have Hendrick engines and finished 3rd last year with the donkey but Childress has a better pedigree in the series and his cars should be doing much better. Though Bowyer (who I find overrated) isn't exactly lighting it up either. It's close though, and neither holds a candle to Steven Wallace which I think says everything.

Nemechek isn't in it to make 43rd place money but without sponsors he can't afford a full pit crew or tires and fuel for a 500-mile race.

Joe legitimately wants to run races, but Prism Motorsports fields not one but two cars simply to start and park. It's annoying.

I'm not mad at Nemecheck himself, but at his owner, Phil Parsons, who purposely fields start and park teams. Yes, I'm sure if Nemecheck (Front Row Joe) could find a team that would hire him to run full races, he would no doubt do so.

Nopaycheck.

Great question...

    • It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ    
    • I don't know. CMC is like others and may have lip serviced that line of " I had no plan or wanted to leave Carolina" I think he even said he bought a house too and wanted this to be home.   Here's what I heard- In a way Panthers org gave him a test and he didn't "fight" back. They approached CMC and told him they wanted to put him on IR since the "season" was over or out of playoff reach. CMC didn't fight it one lick and agreed. They secretly wanted him to kept playing or want to, but there was no kickback. I honestly don't know if its real or not, 5th hand information type deal doing on. Yes he had bruises and pains, but was able to play...... but went along with Panthers staff. Odd to be playing games with star players, but whatever....   Plus the staff doctors found out about his tendinitis and there was nothing to fix it. Even with him missing time, it was the best move to trade him before he got inflamed constantly.    Lastly, its mostly time a combo of stuff, Fitterererere did not sign him to be the highest paid RB. That was classic Marty "give me a" herniay doing. GMs have different values on roster spots and rumor was Fitterererer was one that didn't want to pay RBs. For all his faults, he's right about that......
