Kurt and Kyle's biggest problem is that they're classless, egotistical brats. They're used to getting everything handed to them on a silver platter.
What they need is to be busted down to start & park status and have someone like Jimmy Spencer put a boot in their rear-ends every couple weeks for a year or so.
You know, you can fight in hockey, watch any MLB or NFL and clearly read lips and see the guy said F##k and they are rarely recorded on the sidelines or locker room.....(Lord only knows what we'd here then), and it's no big deal. Nascar has to make a big f'in deal about whatever a driver says. The hypocrisy, I mean NASCAR was essentially founded on breaking the law and yet they try to maintain some sqeaky clean , holier then thou aura.
Let em fight, let em cuss, it's competition and if some wuss corporation want's to drop a driver for his behavior, screw em, folks shoud band together and not buy there products anyhow.
Kurt does have problems with anger management, but I bet this kind of blowup has traditionally not been uncommon among drivers. Now that fans can hear the communications on the internet or Sirus radio, and Kurt is in the spotlight for car audio blowups, anything he says will hit the press.
What makes it worse for him compared to other sports is that he represents sponsors, and a lot of sponsors don't want to be associated with a cursing hot head.
This type of behavior is not always welcome elsewhere however. For a few years, the Cubs have dealt with Carlos Zambrano through suspensions, fines, mandatory anger management, and finally dealt him away to remove his tirades since they were doing more damage than his talent was doing good.
I'd rather have a beer with Kurt Busch than the fool that wrote the tripe article that was linked at the top of the thread. (I'm not talking about OP. Just the guy in the link he put in the post.)
I'm so sick of people judging others and putting people under microscopes. If you don't want to hear a driver rant, then don't listen.
I thought it was totally pathetic when race teams had to start doing disclaimer announcements on the radios before the race to warn people that they may hear some off color language. To h*ll with that! If someone wants to eavesdrop on a team in the heat of battle, be prepared to hear some heated discussion.

Yep. Though not sure if that's a good or bad sign.
