Thanks. I was worried he might come back.

I'm thinking he may just stay gone.

Think they'll give Jeff Gordon a pass into the Chase if he manages a win?

Get well soon, Junior!

As much as they've leaned on the "driver must be 30th or higher in overall points," I don't see that happening.

they added an extra Chase spot for him before. rules are meant to be broken

should be interesting to see if Buescher can make it, he's only 7 points out. it would be a nice boost for his team if he did.

...and at least TWO more.

Concussions are beginning to pussify every sport. A baseball player will get beaned in the head with a 100mph fastball and might miss two games. It seems that NASCAR and the NFL, with their thick padded helmets, turn into pussy's when they bump their head.

Whatever you want to call it.

If Kyle Busch was "being the pussy" about this, I would likely want his sorry ass out there quicker. "He's making so much money," blah blah blah... With it being Jr and with him being so prone to concussions, I would rather he hang it up and leave the sport early (and probably be available as a broadcaster or be involved in some other way) than to turn out like Muhammad Ali.
