You referring to the guy who whines all the time that everyone's out to get him?

Convenient excuse.

I don't like the Mr Good Guy image he tries to portray on TV, while attempting to kill someone on the track.

I seem to remember Carl tying for first in points last year ahead of every driver except Tony Stuart.
So he has a bad year this year and he's over rated.
Did you just become a Nascar fan the day Carl sent Brad flying? I seem to remember Brad sent Carl flying into the fence first. How soon people forget.
Amazing those two can get over it but some haters like yourself just can't.

I can't help but think you must be a 15 YO with the way you have to hate some driver you don't like. I've been a fan for over 50 years and have never hated one driver. Might not have like some but never hate.

Time for some people to grow up even if your not a 15 YO you sure act like one here.

Brad's on the verge of giving Roger Penske the final feather in his cap - a NASCAR championship. Bobby Allison, Rusty Wallace, Jeremy Mayfield, Ryan Newman, and Kurt Busch couldn't do that.

What makes their accomplishments this season more impressive is the fact that they've had to deal with the distraction of shutting down their Dodge program and ramping up their Ford program as well as the AJ Allmendinger saga.
^^^THIS!

I watched Rusty win his championship in 1989 and so longed for him to get one for Penske.

I've been cheering for the #2 car for so long now that I can't stop - especially since the sponsor is still Miller Lite!

I did not like Kurt at all and was so happy he left the team.

I love Brad's personality and his attitude on and off the track. I think him winning the championship would be great for NASCAR. As someone mentioned above, things get boring when the same person keeps winning the championship every year. (Jimmy Johnson or Dale Earnhardt.)

Brad just needs to tame his language. NASCAR Champions represent the sport. We would not want the children to think that race drivers use fowl language.

Definitely not a 15 year old, though sometimes I think I'd like to go back there.

I am old enough and secure enough that I don't feel the need to brag in every other post how long I've been a fan.

Never been call a hater. Isn't that the way 15 year old's talk?

But hey, thanks for the unexpected Sunday morning laugh.

I tell you what was good for NASCAR was Keselowski giving that SportsCenter interview while buzzed and drinking that gigantic beer. Hilarious.

It was so refreshing to see someone genuinely having a blast and sharing the moment like BK did tonight. Good for him!!!

Should Brad win the championship he will go down as the one who denied JJ his 6th title and that could be good for arm chair racing.
As long as Brad doesn't have a Denny moment he should wrap it up.
Brad didn't deny Jimmy. Mechanical problems and a pit road error ended Jimmy's season between Phoenix and Homestead.

What owner are you talking about? I missed this.

I expected BK to be more excited when he got out of the car in victory lane. He was surprisingly subdued. But the contrast between his interview then and the later one with him holding the half empty huge beer was hilarious. He held it together better than I thought he would.
