Why you are nothing to me. Seems you are the one mad here and embarassing yourself if your corporate masters ever looked.

Have a nice day Joey.. make a mint with that podcast.

Why'd you delete the threat, tough guy? Good luck finding your first friend in Vegas. Gotta go see if my Eclipse came yet.

Threat? Saying you can take a poke at me in Vegas? Keep it coming Joey.

Boy, there seem like a lot better people to take shots at in this industry than Joey.

I guess you came in after his comment that got the ball rolling this morning. I took a screenshot if you want to see it.

I'm sure he will apologize after he rereads my original post again especially the point where I said I probably would act the same way.

Not taking sides but I read your original comment and it kind of is a shot at him, saying he doesn’t speak his mind.

I’m sure you understand there are things many people in the industry want to say but keeping it real doesn’t exactly pay the bills.

Personally, my issue isn’t what isn’t being said....but the fawning over the bad things and people in racing. That’s gross to me.

I have to agree with everything you said here because you are paraphrasing my post.

My comment “got the ball rolling”, huh? It wasn’t you saying I basically have no integrity and that I sold my soul, based on absolutely nothing? I was frankly stunned to see that, considering that we’ve never been anything but friendly to each other up until now and you obviously have no familiarity with my work. What you said was incredibly out of line and completely unwarranted.

Yeah the since deleted comment. If you have written an article calling out the industry for fawning over the Saudis then please post the link but based upon below I don't think that exists. If you don't write it aren't you condoning the behavior and part of the problem?

I’m obviously hamstrung in certain cases too these days and can’t say everything I want to in official capacities but the complete whitewashing of the atrocities and the ass-kissing of the Saudis by the majority of racing media is high key embarrassing.

Joey and I have had our share of disagreements, and I look forward to having a few more, but in my not so humble opinion, I wish there were more people like him responsibly covering the game.
