Danica needs a reality check!

Team Duno here!

Milka said
She came to my team and our pit box in a very bad way with bad words,” Duno said.“If you come in a nice way, perfect, we can talk. If you come in a bad way, you are going to find my bad side.

“I don’t like drama, and I told her ‘go away, you are not welcome.’.”

You go girl!

I just saw (as an adjunct to the race broadcast) the incident and the aftermath. For once, I think Scott Goodyear was right on the money. I think Danica had every right to be upset, but I just don't care much for her methods.

Duno was racing for the corner in practice against a car that was WAAAAYYYYY faster. That has "Hello, Crash..." written all over it. In that respect, Ms. Patrick was in the right.

To be honest, Milka Duno is a hazard out there, exceeded only by Moto Marty Roth. I had hoped that with the influx of CCWS drivers that some of these "never should have beens" we would get away from this.

That still doesn't excuse the "Pint Size Pit Bull" from her anger management issues.(Although, I bet ol' AJ was proud of her for calling out Milka but this is a different era.) If she wants to be the face of the series, she needs to grow up a little bit.

Actually I think AJ would have been proud of Milka for telling Danica off. Can you imagine what would have happened, back in the day, if some driver would have approached AJ at his pit and said "Do you know what the F#k you're doing out there?". Predictably AJ probably would have punched him in the mouth.

Danica's dramatics are getting old real quick. She may be popular, but for someone who has only won one race, she's not all that great either.

I think both drivers could take lessons in professionalism from Sara Fisher

AJ doesn't like the Danica Patrick show so yes he's pleased.

I agree with AJ when he said Given competitive equipment Sarah Fisher would give Danica a surprize or two.

Yep, I like Sarah Fisher she received I think $50,000 from donations from fans that really touched her. She's genuine which is a great quality to have.

Now there, we agree. I have always liked Sarah Fisher, but she's never had the equipment that even Lynn St. James had in her day, let alone something that could compete with Danica. Given equal equipment, I'd like to see that rivalry, but sadly, it'll never happen.

Nope it wont! Poor Sarah I'm afraid she may have had her hayday when Johnathon Birds and Kroger were her sponsors now she's got Dollar General and we'll see her in KY but I doubt she'll be competitive which is sad.

Daily Horoscope for December 23

Scorpio

Be careful how you handle a certain someone today because their mood is little short of incendiary. They'll jump down your throat if you dare to disagree with them, and then accuse you of being a wimp if you decide that it would be better to agree with everything they say. You can't win! If they really get on your wick, you'll have to give them a piece of your mind, even if it is supposed to be the season of goodwill to all men. Huh!
