Do you think that Tony Stewarts attitude is making a comeback?

Maybe a bit, but I think his team will keep him in check by reminding him of what they did last year.

k..let me get on my box for a second. \nyes, i'm getting very annoyed with a lot of things, including fellow nascar fans. \nthe haters/basher will always be there. oh well, their loss. they are missing out on a great thing. i am amused that they find it in their time to deal with something they claim to hate so much.. personally, i have better things to do with my time than focus on something i do not enjoy. to me, it's easier to let it slide off my back then to get annoyed with it. they have no impact on my life and i can watch my tv or sit at a track w/o their approval so i can happily go aklong my merrily nascar way.  however, you have to look at what some fans are putting out there to the public. i say some, b/c i know there are still some TRUE fans out there.\n\nfirst, let's get something straight: nascar is about racing. it's not about sex. so can we please of the love of all things holy in racing stop throwing underwear at driver's like jr or kasey kahne. yeah, we got it..some people think they are easy on the eyes. pretty does not pay the bills unless you are dancing on tables. driver are drivers. they are there for the talent and the sport. let's stop demeaning them like a freakin' piece of grade a meat. now, as i said, yes, there are some that are easy on the eyes. i lvoe tony, i think he's gorgeous, but if he could drive a car i wouldn't hae one piece of #20 gear.. if fans put it out there like it's all about something so shallow people will take that and use it.\n\nsecond things are getting just ugly inside the sport. personally, i'm getting really extremely tired of everyne being ridiculous about the rivalries. i mean, yes, there are rivaliries and you can bag on other driver's a bit..but in the past years it has gotten to the extreme. it's gone from my driver can outdriver you driver.. to your driver is a lying cheating, homesexual, whinng scumbag..and it's just not nescessary. \npeople just can't admit when they are outraced, and it's irritating. i mean when someone besides their driver wins it becomes a matter of cheating an blah blah blah.. how about you just admit that you got outraced on that one. every driver would rather win against the best and have it be considered as a good win b/c they truly outraced.. and every driver would rather lose to a good driver than one who just got lucky. \nit's getting really disgusting that people are like wishing harm, actual bodily harm on other driver's..Now that's just plain sick and wrong.\nseriously, my two favorite driver's are probably on the top of the hate list..so i've gotten used to it over the years..but i still think it's gone way overboard and really makes me want to be escorted out of the tracks in handcuffs. i mean some people just need their stupidy stuffed right down their throats sideways.. \n\nnow we take all that and put it out there for the non nascar people to view and what do you think thy are going to take from it?? it's all about representing things better. \nk i will jump off my box now..thanks.

Me. I love Tony and I love to see him win, but lately he has had a string of bad luck. I felt really bad for him today. He looked like he was in a lot of pain. I think he will bounce back next week in Dover though. I hope so anyway. He is a great driver and deserves a win.

i agree with you and papabil. he has gotten better as the year has gone on. in his first full year with tony jr. as his crew chief(from 2000-2004 tony sr. was crew chief and tony jr. car chief), they started out so-so but they have gotten stronger and stronger all year long. they have run well enough during the chase to win the title, but they just haven't gotten the finishes. they led for a while at kansas, talladega, and atlanta, and have been strong at every chase track. i think next year is going to be juniors year. i think they're going to come out of the gate strong and not look back. that budwieser team is really starting to gel.

I love Jamie McMurray.  Is he a pretty boy?  I hadn't noticed!!  Come on, of course he's a pretty boy, but he's also a talented driver.  2003 Rookie of the year and missed the chase by a small margin in 2004 and 2005. He should benefit greatly from his team change and do well this year.

Personally, I am a Biffell Fan, but Tony is an awsome driver.  He knows what he wants and does what it takes.  I like the fact that yes, he does take people out, but its usually because the screwed him first. Oh by the way to the Kasey Kahne fan, Who was it that took out all the Great drivers in nextel all star challenge? yes it was Kahne. If I was him, I would be looking over my shoulder for the rest of the year.....

I think Greg Biffle will do it this year even though he's got off to a rough start. At the end of the '05 season, Stewart loafed at the end while Greg kept charging and almost caught him, beating out Edwards for second by virtue of more wins.

Oh yeah, I would love to see Tony Stewart get the win....and see all the haters whine about 'Oh Tony won, he didn't deserve it!'\n\nBut Carl Edwards or Dale Jr. in the winners circle would be cool if 'Smoke' does not win it...\n\nBummer that Tony is out!!!\n\nIf Jimmie wins, I'm gonna need anti-nausea meds!

Ok   you were doing good for a while... but Tony Stewart, Harvick, and Jr. do not belong  \n\nJr although a fan fav has not performed in cup series and would definatly have to win a championship or at least be on top of his game for another 8-10 years to even be considered!\n\nHarvick is up and comming  but he is another one who has not been conststant in cup. I think we can all agree that he can dominate busch but cup is the big game and no matter how much i like him  I would need to see more from him before consideration.\n\nTony Stewart would probably be your only arguement with me... he is very in-consistant  yes he can win like 6 races in a row, but the rest of the year he sucks!! He does although have 2 championships and i guess no matter how much i don't think he deserves them  that that alone would put him in contention...\n\nYou did However leave out  Dale Sr., Richard Petty, Sterling Marlin, Darrel Waltrip, and many more Old Timers that deserve recognition!!

I was proud of him for finally showing some passion and sticking up for himself. It was refreshing.  He has not been my favorite racer through the years.  And he definitely has been perceived as wimpy, so I LOVED IT!

Tony Stewart hands down is the bigger meathead. How can one person preach about safety and then nearly kill someone the next week? Because of Stewart NASCAR inacted a new rule and he was the first to be penilzed by it. \n\nSTUART HAS #3 ENVY. HE WISHES HE WAS AS RESPECTED/FEARED AS DALE SR. HE'S DRIVING LIKE HE OWNS NASCAR WHEN IN FACT HE HAS NOWHERE NEAR THE FANS, RESPECT OR SKILL. HE NEEDS TO BE TAKEN DOWN A NOTCH.

By no means am I a Tony hater! I think he is one of the best drivers, not to mention he will probably win the championship...again.  I think Tony is an awesome driver, and I think everything he does is part of racing. We can't blame him for being aggressive, he only gives what he gets.  bumping is just a part of racing, and to be #1 you have to get in there and do what you gotta do.  Smoke has what it takes to win.  I am personally a Biffel fan, however, I have to give credit where credit is do.

mark martin is supposed to step out of the nextel cup, but is not retiring..\nricky rudd might not be back in a car, but will not be retiring..\nthere will probably be a few drivers who will not be getting in cars (not really many that are actively racing, but who have in the past and might in the future) but there haven't been any official retirement announcements..not even mark yet.

Tony Stewart is the 2005 Nextel Cup champion!

I have always been a Tony Stewart fan since he started in Outlaws and open wheels racing. There are going to be a lot of fans now.

It was kind of funny the first two times Tony won, but now it's just getting old.  Here are my picks:\n\nLikley to win: Kevin Harvick-He won in the spring and he has a pretty good chance.\n\nSomewhat likely: Clint Bowyer-He finished strong in the spring and has been running well latley, though his finishes may not show it.\n\nUnderdog Pick: Bobby Labonte-Everyones noticed how well he's been doing latley, and he had a top-ten here in the spring.  Maybe it's his turn to see the winners circle now.
