OK, heres my .02.....
1st - It was Dales time to go. It's why he died. You don't die unless it's your time to go.
2nd - I am TIRED of people blaming things for his death. It's not Sterling Marlin's fault... It's not the restrictor plates fault... It's no one's fault. It was his time to leave this earth.
3rd - I am SICK AND TIRED of the media playing this as a safety issue. How many injuries are there in NASCAR a year? Now I ask, how many accidents are in Football a year? Hockey? Iceskating? Track and Field? Basketball? Baseball? Yeah, the list is infinite and guess where Race car driving is on that list... THE VERY BOTTOM for sport related injuries. I know that an injury and death are different but when you want ot talk straight out safety, there is no comparison in my mind. I would rather be in a car with a 5 point belt on and a 6 point roll cage in it and a helmet on my head than doing flips off of a balance beam in a leotard.
Come on guys... we all know that cheerleaders get hurt more on average than racecar drivers.
SORRY I HAD TO VENT
