The comment from 'ep' rings true: it's usually the ones who spout off about being a 'true' fan and are critical others' opinions that turn out to be the same ones who pretend to be Sadler's secret girlfriend!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31806110.post-28574826644065867872007-08-18T09:09:00.000-05:002007-08-18T09:09:00.000-05:00Sadler with the Wood Brothers, when he was a race ...Sadler with the Wood Brothers, when he was a race car driver, not some track side image and act. His results with the Wood Brothers were not the best, but his focus sure was more on the track, and not stage diving and bean balls.

I don't see you responding to the Dallas Traffic, the Buyout & Mergers article, the NASCAR vs other sports in TV Land, or the Michael Vick articles. Sensitivity for TRUE FANS is evidently subject-centered.<BR/><BR/>What is a TRUE FAN anyway? My recent lurking on the internet discovers the TRUE FANS of Sadler take many forms. Some are content to watch from afar, and enjoy the racing. Some participate in message boards, and chat rooms. Some create fictional stories with their favorite driver as the focus. Some will criticize a driver's issues with the seriousness of an investors, but then claim "It is all in fun!" Others are far more serious about their comments, but only because they are worrying their way through the problems. <BR/><BR/>Other fans are scary. Those so-called TRUE FANS actually have identities that are tied up solely with their driver. They make up stories about knowing the driver's family. They make up fake relationships with the driver. They even post 'know it all' information on message boards that tell the world about the personal life of the driver and his girlfriend, all in the name of 'I am a true fan, and it is my right to know."<BR/><BR/>This lugnut dude may be short one of his lugs, or may even be a nut. However, he cites sources and facts. Judging from the blogs over the last several months, he is still a Sadler fan, but one that has his eyes wide open. I would put him in the True Fan category, because he obviously still likes this driver, because he would not be so interested in him! The only difference is that Lugnut is not wearing his Rose Colored Glasses! Something that you might consider removing off of your shortsighted nose. Or...you might consider growing some thicker skin.....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31806110.post-31489463576023867472007-08-17T20:32:00.000-05:002007-08-17T20:32:00.000-05:00Good God, not the true fan crap again!

Goodyear tires change every year, and Penske isn't having any trouble with the new Dodge nose, and who forced them to change it in the first place?<BR/><BR/>But using your own words, from the stats the blogger sited, Sadler is actually doing WORSE than he was when he left Yates, so by your line of thinkin, Sadler should be trying to better himself and find another ride now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31806110.post-58773565968168731942007-08-17T19:16:00.000-05:002007-08-17T19:16:00.000-05:00Why do you spend your energy on bad mouthing Ellio...Why do you spend your energy on bad mouthing Elliott Sadler? If you were doing that bad at a team, wouldn't you try to do something to better yourself? He can't help they got a new nose and different Goodyear tires. I think you need to spend your time writing about something worthwhile. You could piss alot of us fans off. I happen to love Elliott no matter what. I am a 'true' hardcore fan of his!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
