I have no doubt Kyle is bashing him esp since his bro is winning with is old crew chief. But there have been several incidents where Addington has gone up to Kurt at his worst, put a hand on his back or shoulder and Kurt calms down - if Pat Tryson had done that Kurt would have punched him fer sure. Kurt is still a verbal abuser in the car but with the team and in the hauler its different...klvalushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17013035051062088498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611740933107502897.post-62951081948988961472010-05-25T16:51:03.405-07:002010-05-25T16:51:03.405-07:00JM....LOL, Denny is a long way from Spencer.

Kyle is still badmouthing him every chance he gets.... and Kurt's radio feed Saturday night for most of the race was X-rated. I think Addington's greatest value is that he lets their tirades roll off his back, and does his job.Gene Haddockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03677117602150714769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611740933107502897.post-90451158498569669292010-05-25T11:46:08.350-07:002010-05-25T11:46:08.350-07:00It's too bad Denny Hamlin wasn't Jimmy Spe...It's too bad Denny Hamlin wasn't Jimmy Spencer. Then both Busch brothers would have had a pancaked nose in their careers.<br /><br />Also, it's great that Labonte finished 10th, but that may have been the worst top 10 car I've ever seen. He simply couldn't keep up most of the night, which was partly why he missed the wrecks. But hey, anything positive is a step in the right direction.jmayer1843https://www.blogger.com/profile/03979602470480690327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611740933107502897.post-84070401936406376792010-05-25T09:37:20.838-07:002010-05-25T09:37:20.838-07:00Oy!

My diagnosis would stem from a ...Oy! You two!! =P<br /><br />My diagnosis would stem from a rough childhood - bad relationship with parents - taught they were God's gift and don't listen to anyone, they know everything, never wrong etc and when challenged they respond with extreme anger - a good front to back people off and keep the control all to themselves. Now if you can break thru that front then you BFF's forever. Think JG's has and so has Addington.

May...Dwind... great points, thanks for the input. <br /><br />Maybe his wanting to be the greatest, his quest for perfection requires him to accept no blame when anything goes wrong. Maybe Kristen will give us her diagnosis of Kyle?<br /><br />Most perfectionists that I know, also won't ever admit they're wrong. Oh, wait a minute, not perfectionists, I meant to say women.

Think of the literally thousands of thi...Hey Gene!<br /><br />Think of the literally thousands of things that come together to make a race and compound that by another thousand things that any individual in the race can have go wrong. Then there's mother nature and "the hand of God". So many variables to consider. Crazy things that we never hear about come into play. Things like whether a driver or a pit boss had a bad night or doesn't feel good. Consider the stress, not only on the racing team, but also on the highly refined vehicles as a huge effort is put forth to win. So many things can happen without explanation and they're mostly bad. <br /><br />Then consider why only a handful of these competitors win on a regular basis. What's the common denominator? It's gotta be the will to win. Only a select few have the ability to will themselves into the winner's circle. This select few competes with each other and when things go badly, their frustration shows in many ways. Kyle can't seem to help himself. He's got to point fingers publicly. We both know the others, when disaster strikes, are doing much the same thing, they've just learned to keep it under wraps, so to speak. <br /><br />Joe Gibbs has gotta be gratified to not only have Kyle but also Denny Hamlin on his team. Both are young, hard charging drivers with something to prove, but there are times when these two, just like Gordon and JJ, will have confrontations, all while willing themselves to win.<br /><br />Like you're saying, if a driver loses that will to win, he might as well hang it up (Jr.?)...<br /><br />Viva the will!Dwindy1https://www.blogger.com/profile/02915617340823975656noreply@blogger.com
