What
about the stupid things Edwards has done behind the wheel? Like deliberately dumping Keselowski at 190 mph into the Talldega catch fence?Black Eye


The crazy thing about that whole deal was when they interviewed Carl immediately after the his wreck in the garage, he said that it wasn't Brad's fault. I believe he said that Joey kind of forced the issue, and that Carl didn't blame Brad for him getting into the wall, and that he wasn't mad at Brad.

Then, after he spends an hour or so in the garage waiting for his car to be repaired, he has this Epiffany and goes out and tried to kill Brad and almost puts him in the grandstands.

When they interviewed him after he flipped Brad, Carl says that he was "doing it for My Guys".

Man, that was some serious dual/split personality stuff right there!Confused

Exactly what I'm talking about. This wasn't the only on-track action, either, and actions like this is what made me and many others lose respect for him.


Do you rememeber when he had Harvick by the neck in the garage>

Or when he cocked his fist back like he was going to hit his teammate Matt Kenseth at Martinsville after the race on Pit Road?

That was scarey to watch.

Yeah, I do remember all that stuff. Along with a bunch of other people, I'll bet. Yeah, there's emotions in racing, as there should be, but there's a right way and a wrong way to display it, and Edwards has become an expert at the wrong way to display it. Just my opinion though, and some may argue with it.[/quote]

I agree with you 100%. But it seams that Edwards has perfected the right way to respond: WHEN HE KNOWS THE CAMERAS ARE ON HIM.
The times that he hasn't acted appropriately were when he DIDN'T KNOW the Cameras were on him.

Makes you wonder "Who" the "Real" Carl Edwards is?

But, the TV networks, the sponsors, and Ford absolutely LOVE him. Or at least they love the "Camera Carl" version!Wink
