Ryan Newman Came Off Salty

            Some people know that I am a die-hard Jeff Gordon fan.  They also know that I have other drivers I would root for.  If you do not know, I will give you a little run down.  Of course Jimmie Johnson is my second favorite driver.  I am a fan of all of Hendrick Motorsports’ drivers.  I am a fan of Tony Stewart as well.  I was a fan of the whole Stewart-Haas organization up until some people did some things against drivers I like.  My point is that I like other drivers other than Gordon and I do not like some drivers.

            For years, I have not been a fan of Ryan Newman.  Newman has done things on the track that really irk me.  Last night after Newman was involved in a wreck, he had the nerve to call out Stewart.  Newman said that Stewart was Bipolar and he has anger issues.  Then he had the nerve to say that if people look up Stewart on YouTube, you would see the things that he has done.  And we all know what he was referring too.  Newman was acting like a salty ex who was done wrong.  A few years ago Stewart dumped Newman for Kevin Harvick.  That sound a little harsh, but it really isn’t.  He did gain someone who would win races, contend for the wins, and contend for a championship.  Harvick did win a championship during his first year with Stewart-Haas. 

            Stewart did right to dump Newman.  He wasn’t doing anything.  I think that he won only one race with them at Phoenix.  He had no business winning that race because Gordon did not choose the right lane.  Newman has done things to other drivers on the track as well.  He always made it hard for other drivers to pass him on the track.  I understand the racing hard, but Newman takes it beyond that at times.  Newman got into it with Johnson a few times.  Gordon had a few run-ins with him at times.  Newman had his fair share with Joey Logano.  I will never forget that he body slammed Kyle Larson to make it into the final round into the Chase a couple of years ago.  Plus last night he got into Jeff Gordon, causing Gordon to get into Chase Elliott.  And by the way, Alan Gustafson owes Gordon an apology.  He knows damn well that Gordon did not intentionally try to get into Elliott. 

            Stewart did mention that Newman already got into him three times before Stewart finally got tired of Newman’s bullying.  Newman is a bully.  That is what he does on the track.  And by the way, I find a few on track incidents that Newman was involved in.  I guess Newman forgot that he was involved in a fight with David Gilliland at Dover in 2013 after he wrecked Gilliland on the track.  At Richmond in 2011, Newman gave Juan Montoya a big bump, but Montoya did return the favor by taking out Newman.  Newman has done a lot to other drivers.  It is too much to write, but those are the main ones.  It seems to me that Newman is the one who got bipolar. 

            Newman should have had a civilized conversation with Stewart after the race, but he chose to make an ass out of himself on national TV by pointing out someone else flaws.  Newman has flaws himself.  Newman needs to take a look into the mirror.  While he talking that Stewart needs to retire, he is the one in a situation who might not have a ride next year.  There are rumors going around that Ty Dillon is going up into the Cup Series.  So, it seems like Newman might be the one who will be out.  At least Stewart is going out on his own terms.  Newman cannot say the same.  Last night, Newman was not just mad about what happen in the race.  It had built up inside him how mad he truly was of Stewart getting rid of him a few years ago.
