June 12, 200719 yr Jr third fiddle to Gordon and Johnson? Fans won't think so, but the Hendrick camp, might. Another thought, when Gordon retires, who takes over the 24 car? By bringing on Jr, will Hendrick put him or Johnson in the car. And what about Busch? He's been doing OK. He's 10 in the standings, 1 win 3 top 5's and 7 top 10's. I see Mears going before Kyle.

Hendrick has not been too pleased with kyle of late with all his temper tantrums. According to Jayski.com Kyle and JR might be swapping rides.
June 12, 200719 yr This is good but bad. Good that Jr. is driving for a proven team and will have a great supporting staff behind him but bad that I have to root for Johnson and Gordon who are also Hendrick drivers.
June 12, 200719 yr Hendrick has not been too pleased with kyle of late with all his temper tantrums. According to Jayski.com Kyle and JR might be swapping rides. Could happen. I just don't know about going to Hendrick. It would be a great career move for Dale. He'll get better cars and better crew. Eh, let's just see how it all pans out after tomorrow.
June 12, 200719 yr ^Right.....I'll be completely convinced when I hear it out of Jr.'s mouth. At least we haven't heard the words "done deal."
June 12, 200719 yr My banker told me that there was a wire transfer................ :lol: :sssh: Seriously, I would love for this to happen just to see all the looks of confusion on the Jr fans faces when they see Jr and Gordon as teammates helping each other win. What in the world are they going to say if Jr ends up pushing and being the reason Gordon wins a race at the end of this season to wrap up a Cup championship? That would be a classic moment.
June 12, 200719 yr ^Not all Jr. fans hate Gordon. I think it will be okay, if Jeff repays the favor from time to time.
June 12, 200719 yr This is the craziest thing I have ever heard.....wait is this dejevu' the chosen one going to the dark side again?
June 13, 200719 yr From Jayski's: Hearing that Dale Earnhardt, Jr. will end up at Hendrick Motorsports, taking Kyle Busch's roster spot. As to what happens to Busch, he'll take Junior's place at DEI. http://www.jayski.com
June 13, 200719 yr ^Right.....I'll be completely convinced when I hear it out of Jr.'s mouth. At least we haven't heard the words "done deal." It's done...I hate this...wanted him to drive for Richard Childress.. Jr. will lose fans over this...A few of his diehard fans have told me this already... http://www.rcrracing.com/teams/richard.asp :cry:
June 13, 200719 yr ^Then they're not diehard Jr. fans. JMO I think it's also likely that he will acquire new fans.
June 13, 200719 yr I will be a Jr fan, no matter where he goes. Maybe one day he will end up back and DEI and make it into a championship team.
June 13, 200719 yr From Jayski's: Hearing that Dale Earnhardt, Jr. will end up at Hendrick Motorsports, taking Kyle Busch's roster spot. As to what happens to Busch, he'll take Junior's place at DEI. http://www.jayski.com That would help DEI. No matter if Jr goes to the darkside or not, I'll root for him. I don't have to to root for Super Whiny or Mighty Whiny Boy. Just for Dale Jr.:thumb:
