Blame Kyle Busch
04/20/2016 |
It’s really astounding sometimes, if you think about it. Can you imagine what the world would be like without Kyle Busch?
There would be no terrorism, because Kyle Busch is the leader of Al-Qaeda, and probably ISIS, too.
Remember that government blimp that escaped a few months ago and needed to be shot down? Kyle Busch was supposed to be watching it.
I still remember the time that Kyle Busch forced Richie Valens to get on that airplane.
Chess whiz Bobby Fischer disappeared at the top of his game because he foresaw the birth of Kyle Busch and was worried he might choose Chess instead of racing.
If it weren’t for Kyle Busch, Nolan Ryan would have eight no-hitters.
The Kennedy Assassination? Kyle Busch was on the grassy knoll and the book depository.
Kyle Busch was responsible for stirring the oxygen tanks on the Apollo XIII space craft.
Kyle Busch had one job to do on April 14th, 1912, and that was to push one little iceberg out of the way.
I almost didn’t advance to the eighth grade when I was younger. Kyle Busch was born May 2nd of that year and threw the Earth off of its axis.
The fact is that Kyle Busch is an easy scape goat, and perhaps a lot of the responsibility for that unfortunate delegation does and should rest right on the shoulders on Kyle Busch himself. Busch is brash, speaks his mind, is not always “politically correct”, if you will, doesn’t shy away from conversations, and has not always made the right decisions behind the wheel of his race cars.
Granted.
However, the worst bank robber in the history of the world should not automatically be found guilty of all bank robberies.
When Kyle Busch comes into the media center of any track, sits down next to me, and starts pushing buttons on my laptop, he’ll be in the same situation that a certain young lady was on Sunday afternoon when she got “run over” by Kyle Busch as he prepared to exit the event after some tire and wall issues. I don’t care who you are. That garage area is a work space. NASCAR is open and kind enough to grant an access to a sport that most other sports would turn down without batting an eyelash. Do you think the Atlanta Braves would allow you in their dugout during the game? Try to go sit next to LeBron on the bench at the next Cavs game and see what happens. No, NASCAR is rather unique in its willingness to include the fans in such an intimate setting during the actual event. This is not a locker room tour or a kids’ event before a game, this is THE show. Now, if you’re lucky enough to score a Hot Pass for the garage, you should know what the members of the media have been told for years. “Heads up and on a swivel.” You’re going to be in their work environment, which consists of 3500 pounds of hot and fast metal and rubber whizzing by, multiplied by forty. Get out of the way.
My wife is a Nurse. Where is the last place I belong? In the ER with her while she's trying to save someone's life. That said, it seems to me that this young lady, whose husband is a racer himself, should be aware of all of this to begin with. She initially said she was okay, and then went to the track’s care center, and then to the hospital later that night as she was having discomfort that began to run up her leg and into her back. She also initially said it was her fault. She also said she was mad that Kyle Busch didn’t come out to check on her. Now she’s saying it wasn’t her fault and she was in a safe zone, and there are also reports that Busch did, in fact, come back to see if she was okay.

“…Makes me dislike him even more.” So, you dislike Kyle Busch, but you have to get this picture of him. Why would you want a picture of someone you don’t like? I’m guessing if things went differently and you didn’t put yourself in a bad situation, there would have been a different post on your facebook account, probably something like “Haha, Kyle Busch wrecked his car.”
Geez, lady, it’s a good thing you dislike him already. If he was your favorite driver, would you have laid down on the asphalt right in front of him? Maybe just jump on the hood of the car next time, or better yet, just climb into the right side window. Music talent Ludacris had a song that is applicable here, and the lyrics were pretty clear. Get out of the way. By the way, your fifteen minutes are almost over. Clock’s ticking…
You can blame Kyle Busch for a lot of things if you choose, it’s kind of easy to do…but not for this. That’s the workspace for him and his team. Get out of the way.
That’s all for now. I have to call the insurance company to get my roof fixed. The wind blew a tree branch down and punched a hole through it last night. Probably Kyle Busch’s fault.
