..during Larry Dixon's top end interview with Mr. Gerrould during the Saturday night qualifying broadcast?..I felt really bad for him.

Felt bad ? You bet I did but the fact remains -- he screwed up..........bigtime ! ! !

What happened

Dixon is just like a quarterback....if you get all the glory when things go good you have to suck it up and take it when it goes bad. So no, don't feel sorry for the guy.

P.S. I'm not so sure I'm liking the idea of some foreign sheik owning a race team either. Don't think I'll be a big Dixon/Al-Anabi rooter this year.

What's the difference in this guy sponsoring a race team versus Quaker State? Has he done something wrong or on some watch list here in the states? Or is it that he looks like alot of the terrorist? maybe I am reading between the lines here but your comment sounds borderline discriminatory. If the Sheik is legit then his money is golden, I don't think Alan Johnson, Larry Dixon, and Del Worsham want to race so bad that they would take money from a terrorist. Everyone is entitled to an opinion but I think you might want to re think or reword what you said there Julie.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but do you ever wonder why so many non-americans hate us????????? Why spread hatred?

Don't judge a book by its cover. I personally could care less if he or she is brown, yellow or purple or green.
