Now a days it is a combination of both I believe. People that spew this filth feels like it makes them sound tuff. Like succumbing to peer pressure. Persons that feel 10 foot tall and bullet proof with a drink in their hand or chew in. Does the fact that this team is based out of the state that is the very definition of crookedness going all the back to Al Capone have anything to do with it? Would anyone venture to guess that the people that buy these items and think they are so cool may have also voted for the latest U.S. President that was from this area when he ran ?
    And most of them (probably not the race fans ) voted for the last Pres also and you see where that got us ! Nod Nod Wink Wink !

      There are alot of people on here that like to rag on anything Bloomquist or Pierce, but if the last 2 years of Dirt Million rewards is any indication, you're in the minority

          Hope they can make it as a family team because they’re limiting their options going forward with this type reputation and branding. I selfishly hope he stays in dirt racing and I like his independent type schedule this year. But there will come a time that big Bob will want to cut back. What then?
          I hate time trials.

            Still can't quote your posts but that first paragraph in the one above is about as spot on as anyone has ever posted on 4m.........I see lots of denial coming today.

                I'm very concerned about the implied fan base majority getting upset because they are so young......every time someone brings up something negative about the team it's always but, but, but they have a bazillion young followers on Twitter, Facebook, etc.....they have throngs of youngsters looking up to Bobby as their racing idol, team pure as the driven snow kinda crap.

                I don't really care what they do, who they door up to do it, what the latest trailerpark tshirt is going to say or who cierra is going to knock out next.......as long as they just call it for what it is and stay away from the denial when questioned on it.

                That posse shirt should say " we ruin this sh t".

                  In my opionion: The Pierce Family is trying to create some type of image for Bobby for the future. Such as Bloomquistdid with the yin-yang/skull & crossbones thing. Yes-it has made him a lot of money in apparel sales- but He didn’t use the vocabulary as the Pierce group. To each their own - they will either reap the rewards or face “some” amount of fallout. I personally don’t like the shirts- but the racing it much more entertaining when Bobby is there & he is not on my list as drivers I pull for. He just makes it exciting to watch. 🏁🏁

                    Your right I for one enjoy watching him race, he's very exciting to watch for sure. It doesn't bother me about the shirts I just find it a little much. He doesn't have to create an image or persona in my opinion. I got a chance to speak to him when he was with Dunn Benson and he's a very respectful and polite person so I think you're right it seems to be more the family than Bobby.

                      I won't comment either way on the Pierce t-shirts.

                      For those worried about the influence on kids at the track - have you walked around the pit area and seen some of the statements, sayings and images on some race cars... especially on the back of spoilers or fuel cells? Drivers during interviews acknowledging they name their race cars after famous porn stars? The morality flag stopped waiving over short track racing a LONG time ago so let's not pretend the Pierce shirts are new and unchartered territory.

                      But then what about NASCAR? Surely, we can look to them to help point our moral compass in the right direction. The powers that be in NASCAR would not allow something like this on a t-shirt or a race car with one of their race teams in the "Corporate" and "Sanitized" series. Kevin Harvick just ran the Busch Beer Millennial car at the NASCAR All-Star race this past weekend in Charlotte. On his hood... "Busch Beer AF." Harvick finished second in the event and blamed the finish on his pit crew who were definitely not on fleek during their final pit stop.

                        You are spot on about all the other trashy subjects that come up at a dirt race by certain drivers ,fans and teams........difference is that none of their die hard fans try to talk out of both sides of their mouths about it.

                        " oh it's cool, he's young , everyone uses the f word, it's ok , why worry about it out of one side of their posse mouths and then when someone has something to say about something questionable that Bobby or the team did out of the other side of their mouths come" oh no, Bobby is an idol to many young kids , he isn't trashy or vulgar , just look how many young impressionable followers he has that love him".

                        It's very funny to watch and the posses don't really even realize they do it until called on it.......they can do whatever they want, but it's going to be called for what it is.sorry.

                          Many, many , many people have said and thought the same thing for a while now......but according to a small group of posse pit lizards you're not allowed to like Bobbys racing and dislike the circus he comes in with.

                          That reality escapes them.....I'm speaking about the limited vocabulary folks mentioned earlier.
                          Funny to watch.

                                BBQ-Boy... What circus are you talking about? Bobbys family? His crew? His fans? Then you use the term trailerpark. Are you saying that all people that live in a trailerpark are trashy? Then you talk about limited vocabulary. Are you saying that you're better than other people?
