Yep, thank you for replying. Not surprised, they have been flocking to Penske after Bloomerpuddin went there.Up in the air who my next “favorite†driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normalâ€.

Lol wasted time and effort... Mines well call u surfOriginally posted by chupp n bloomer fan View PostYou are ridiculous. You realize he was in the Kay Gheer'd up 15 car right? He wasn't very good, and he didn't wanna put the time in to get the car to his liking. He said this himself. He has two boys who if not teenagers, they are right there. Could you possibly wrap your dam brain around the fact that maybe, just maybe, he might want to be a father. You know, actually spend time with his boys, not travel up and down the dam road trying to make it as a full time racer. Having no benefits or job security, or being able to see his boys grow up as he should. He is not the only one to quit, so I'm not sure why it is some of you wanna keep b!tching as if it's his wife's fault he said fuk it.Always carrying my 2 Crown Jewels

Very well said, sometimes other things become more important in life than racing and spending time with the family would rank right there at the top of the list.Originally posted by chupp n bloomer fan View PostYou are ridiculous.

Evidently some of these people aren't parents, I mean, wtf is so hard to understand? And even if she did play a part, so what, she should. A marriage/family is about everyone involved, not just me, myself, and I.Originally posted by kidrock View PostVery well said, sometimes other things become more important in life than racing and spending time with the family would rank right there at the top of the list.

Shirley did have a Pierce car. I think it was either a short amount of time or about as long as this Longhorn stint.Up in the air who my next “favorite†driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normalâ€.

I agree, like you said if she played a part he must have felt his marriage and raising his boys were more important then travailing up and down the road wondering if he was going to make enough money to put food on the table or pay the bills.Originally posted by chupp n bloomer fan View PostEvidently some of these people aren't parents, I mean, wtf is so hard to understand?

There seems to be a lot of circumstantial evidence that points to his wife. I guess guys like Bloomquist, ONeal, and others are just the worst fathers ever.Originally posted by chupp n bloomer fan View PostYou are ridiculous.

Didnt she make some comment public on Facebook about him being immature shortly after one night of racing. After that he declared he was fully retired for good.

That's exactly what I said. Well said, way to put words in people's mouth. I thought you were smarter than this BS you just said, guess not.Originally posted by MasterSbilt_Racer View PostThere seems to be a lot of circumstantial evidence that points to his wife.

Maybe I'll clarify, since you want to jump to fukin conclusions. For some, the racing life works forever. For others, it gets to a point where they say fuk it. The time, effort, money, lack of stable income, not being able to be around your family a lot, it becomes too much. Some can handle it and work with it, some can't. More and more are saying fuk it, not just Birky. Spin that however you want all knowing, these are words they have all said.
Really not sure how me, as a father, who has traveled for work, and worked stupid hours. And at times, day shift, and night shift, defending Birky and anyone else who decides to say fuk the racing life, is turned into me saying that these other guys aren't good Dads because they have made racing their careers, quite mind boggling. I understand these struggles partly. No not racing, but they go through the same sh!t as everyone else and worse. So I 100% get when some walk away.Last edited by chupp n bloomer fan; 06-19-2017, 08:23 AM.Up in the air who my next “favorite†driver is.
