Dale Jr. most popular driver???

Question

How is it that there are so many Dale Jr. haters on here, with him being the most popular driver in Nascar. It is almost like he is the most hated driver.

Answer 1

Most of his fans don't know how to use the "internets".

Answer 2

I wonder the same thing. Everyone has fans and haters. It's just that Jr. has more fans than haters. But yeah, there are A LOT of Jr. Haters out there. How is it that there are so many Kyle Busch fans on this site?

Answer 3

??? and...

Answer 4

I AINT A HATER!

Answer 5

Being the most popular for many doesn't make him most popular to all. Some fans love to hate on any driver that is not THEIR favorite. Some people do it just to get to other people riled up.

Answer 6

i am one of them that don't like dale

Answer 7

I'm with Gloria and Maggie I'm done with this kind of questions! enough is enough already!!

edit: if your not bashing then why the question to get everyone worked up?

and to answer your question I think Jr is the driver that people love to hate either you love him (like me) or you hate him! and some people just don't like him cause he is popular!

edit: I gotcha and I know there are tons of haters of Jr on here I've been told by other Jr fans on here that you've got to have thick skin to be a Jr fan cause it get crazy in here!!

And I really think some people just don't like him cause he is most popular and then I think some people think he should be more like his dad and so on and so on.......

Answer 8

Because he has never lost His North Carlina Charm, That Earnhardt Kindness, Caring Heart and he is so DOwn To Earth that's why he is so Popular other than his LAST NAME of EARNHARDT

Go Dale Jr#88!!!!

Answer 9

His fans have pickled their brain cells from too many years of drinking Buttwiper.

Answer 10

Ive Converted to JOEY LOGANO

Answer 11

Most people hate or dislike him due to his amount of success, just as some Jr lovers don't like smoke or kyle Busch

Answer 12

Thank you Gloria 5.  I am choosing NOT to answer anymore questions like this Busch hating/Jr. hating questions. Or insults and digs disguised as questions.  Like this one.

Answer 13

Because, being most popular in anything doesn't make you the best. It just means more people like you.

Answer 14

I'm neutral on Jr. not a fan, not a hater, I get what you're asking..

The reason he gets trashed is because in fact he is the most popular driver, that's no secret, everyone knows that, he who sits in the top spot in anything is going to be the most challenged, while at the same time the most loved.

12 years ago it was Jeff Gordon, he was the most popular driver on the circuit, he had a huge following, and yet there were those who hated him, because of the fact that he was the most popular.

Same thing now with Jr.

Answer 15

You wish!  Sometimes the fans CHOOSE to not become involved with the childish bashing going on in here.

go Jr.>>>>

Answer 16

i understand what you where saying and yall dont have to answer any questions that yall dont want to so leave him alone..and your just catching every body whose fav. driver is not jr. yesterday he had soo many ppl that stayed and not all the ppl that stayed where jr's biggest fans alot where the biggest fans for the other 42 drivers that lost to jr. but they have respect for him and they didnt throw ne thing on the track bc those ppl have been w\ jr threw the good times and more importantly threw the bad times....and us race fans are not going to disrespect him like that on FATHERs DAY! and jr gives respect to other as well... i mean you really dont hear him bashing on ne other drivers even after someone wrecks him and its clearly there fault he treats ppl just like they would want to be treated and he isnt even my fav driver...but congrats jr!

Answer 17

I agree with Karli, and i just want the 2 points...lol

Go Kasey Go!!

# 9 all the way baaaby!!

Answer 18

i am not bashing junior, but he's only popular because of his last name.  he's not his daddy, and i betcha he'll never get a sprint cup.  you can love him or hate him.  he's just riding on his daddy's name.  i can feel the thumbs down happening.  bring it on!

Answer 19

1. he's more popular than the haters' favorite drivers

2. NASCAR supposedly talks about him more than any other driver

3. haters say he's only where he's at because of his last name

4. NASCAR supposedly shows favoritism towards him

and the list goes on....

you name it, I've read all of the ridiculous rants on here about why they dislike the guy.

Personally, i think without him NASCAR wouldn't even come close to having the success they have. How can you dislike Dale Jr., the guy is down to earth, friendly, has a passion for racing, always runs a clean race, doesn't wreck ppl. Even Rusty Wallace said 18 wins is a great accomplishment. He does have alot of talent!

Answer 20

I'm with Gloria and Maggie, I'm going to stop answering any bashing questions, life is just to short for it. This forum is becoming nothing but a bashing feast...Dale Jr is my favorite, I don;t expect everyone to like him, its a free country..Years ago it was Jeff Gordon..I give up..

Go Dale Jr & Hms

Answer 21

I'm with Gloria, and Maggie.  I'm wondering if maybe after School's back in session, the silly bashing will stop.  I'm still soooooo Glad Junior Won!  Who cares what others think!

Answer 22

The reason he is the most popular is because the majority of his fans are drunk and all they do is sit at home and vote over and over and over and over and over...just like the little girls on American Idol who sit home with their speed dial and vote for the cutest guy thousands of times.
