What can I say about this deal? As a reporter of racing, Drags, Stock Car and etc., I try to stay in the middle on the road. I also try to like all drivers. But I do not condone using a car as a weapon. This is NOT racing. Drag guys seem to have more class than us stock car guys. Why is that I ask? The #10, Joey Stancil was leading the race and #48 Anthony Russell hit him in the rear end going into the turn (a NO-NO) not going into a turn, maybe coming out? Then #10 Joey Stancil later into the race hits #48 Anthony Russell in the rear. So, it should be even Right? But here comes #48 Anthony Russell across the middle of the track and in the wrong direction and drives right into the drivers door area of #10 Joey Stancil. Both cars crash into the wall but that isn't it, while Joey is hurt bad from the CHEAP SHOT of Anthony Russell, Anthony gets out of his car and takes several other CHEAP SHOTS at Joey with his fist while Joey is still seat belted in his car with a bone coming out of his leg and in much pain. Last year I saw Anthony try to hit Tony Rothe with his fist while Tony was still seat belted in his car. Is this a continous problem with the same driver? I have been around stock racing for many years and know many drivers that have gotten mad and have won many races but never used their car as a weapon. I know that Anthony and his guys will read this and will not like what they read. You will get mad at me and that is OK. But look guys it is now two years in a roll that your guy has been in fights with different drivers. So it looks like it is your driver that can't control his anger? Maybe anger management class would help and I am not trying to be funny. Suppose Anthony had hit him more in the door and killed him? For what a trophy and $150.00? I have nothing against any of you drivers, we are all friends, but someone is going to get killed. This sport is dangerous enough without this. If you post about this keep it clean or I will remove you. Thanks Odell (also post your real name please)

I WAS NOT AT THE RACE LAST NIGHT BUT WAS AT THE HOSPITAL WHEN BOBBIE CALLED ME. SHE WAS SHAKING SO BAD I WAS AFRAID SHE WAS GOING TO HAVE A HEART ATTACK. FROM JUST TALKING TO OTHER PEOPLE THAT WAS AT THE RACE THIS HARD LICK IN THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR WAS INTENTIONAL!! COME ON GUYS "THIS IS NOT RACING". JOEY COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT. HE WAS HURT BAD ENOUGH TO HAVE TO HAVE SURGERY TO PUT A ROD AND 4 PINS IN HIS LEG! IF I WAS THE OWNER OF THE #48 CAR, ANTHONY WOULDN'T HAVE A RIDE!!
BUMPING IS RACING BUT NOT HITTING ON PURPOSE TO THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR, AND YOU DON'T TAKE THE LEADER OUT, YOU RACE TOGETHER!!! I HEARD FROM SEVERAL RACERS THAT ANTHONY WAS MAD THAT HE HAD TO ADD WEIGHT TO HIS CAR. WELL WHAT DO YOU EXPECT WHEN YOU HALF TRACK OTHER CARS AND YOUR UNDERWEIGHT??DO YOU NOT THINK THE TRACK WILL CHECK?? A GOOD RACE IS NOSE TO NOSE COMING OUT OF TURN 4 AND STAYING OFF EACH OTHER WITH THE GRANDSTANDS STANDING AND CHEERING. WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT KIND OF RACING!!! RACING LIKE ANTHONY DID, YOU NOT ONLY LOSE FRIENDSHIPS, YOU LOSE FANS TOO! I SAW THE PICS THAT BOBBIE DID FOR ANTHONY AND HIS WIFE, THIS WAS UNCALLED FOR. IF ANTHONY HAS TO SIT OUT THE REST OF THE SEASON MAYBE IT WILL MAKE HIM THINK ABOUT WHAT HE'S DONE!! OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU JOEY AND BOBBIE AND I HOPE DALLAS DOES THE RIGHT THING!!! LET'S GET BACK TO OLD FASHION RACING, IF THE MAN BEATS YOU THIS WEEK, WORK ALL WEEK ON THE CAR AND COME OUT AND BEAT HIM FAIR AND SQUARE NEXT WEEK!! SOMETIMES ALL IT TAKES IS A NEW SET OF TIRES!! BELIEVE ME ITS BEEN DONE!!!!!!!!!
This event was should have never taken place and #48 was totally out of line. He should be punished and his punished should be more than what he got. However alot of this situation was caused by the track. The #48 team had a great car which was already 100 pounds over the weight of 3000 pounds. Then the officals decided to but another 400 pound on him because he was winning. The reason he was winning is because their car worked very well though the corners. Instead of everyone else working on their car or claiming his engine they just cryed to the officals and as always he who crys the most gets their way. So this setup a situation were the #48 had something to prove and that he did. He got the pole and was still 3 tenth quicker than anyone. In the race he then showed his inability to be clam in the race car. He spun the 10 and when to the rear. At that point he tried to past the 10 and he took him to the infield, and when he did pass him he spun the 48. This is were The 48 got crazy and should be punished. This whole situation goes back to the drivers meeting a week eailer and the 10 car was crying about the 48 car and then the weigh was put on the 48. So there was a lot leading up to this, which in no way justifieds the crash. Drivers and teams should work on their cars and making them as good as they can within the rules. Let the officials tech the cars and make sure they are legal and if they are thats it. Bo wins a lot of late model races and the other racers keep working hard and they seem to be coming to his level. Some would has to set the bar high and everyone else need to go to work.
Race Car Mama I am very sorry what happen to Joey. He did try and wreck Hammerhead on the back strecth and then about three to five laps later wreck Hammerhead. Everyone got to remember Hammerhead had to ADD 400lbs to his car. So when he went into turn three his car slide and he hit Joey and they both spunned out. That was a accident. Then Joey tried to take him out 2 times,and the 2 time he did. Then that is when Hammerhead hit him in the door.THIS SITE IS NOTHING BUT TROUBLE. How many fight has it caused. I can name three. Odell if you are going to run this site run it fair. You (Odell) have nothing good about Hammerhead. Is it because he did not use you for his lettering this year Then you think Joey did nothing wrong. The Group of guys that work on the 48 our very sorry about whaT happen to Joey. What If Joey put Hammerhead in the wall like he was trying to do on the back stretch. That would have been a Really Bad wreck. Because he had Hammerhead all crossed up. He was trying to put Hammerhead straight in the wALL (just like he did the 42 Four yrs ago.) So Odell, If you are going to tell the story tell all the story. Not half of it like you did. (About the #48 fans) Hammerhead loves his fans,but they need to know he is not going to take the BS. (ABOUT ROTHE)THAT IS ANOTHER STORY. Odell you said that using a racecar is wrong and you don't remember drivers doing that. Well I will agree using a race car is wrong, But I have seen alot worse then what Hammerhead did. (Like 74,6,M1,) Does these three ring a bell.
odell,i am 1 of hammerheads friends,i wasnt there last night but heard from several people,not including anthony,the situation was a bad deal because joey got hurt,but when you constantly keep trying to bring a team down because you cant beat them,then you spin them,and we all know that joey is the reason that the outragous 400 pound rule came in,when you add 400 pounds dont practice and in racing conditions the car is very hard to stop,but when you spin some one just because they spun you,well we know what happened,the cheap shot uncalled for i agree,but there is more to it than just what happened at the track and leading up to the race,but i will and my family will keep joey and bobby in our prayers.
First and foremost I would like to thanks everyone for everything you all have done for Joey and I. I do have him home now but it will be a long road. He is laid up for 6 weeks so I hope everyone is happy to hear that. Now a lot of the fans, race drivers, and friends know that last night was Joey last night to race out at BBR. And now we can say he left in a big way. He was not giving it up because of what happen but because he better his self in a job working for the
goverment painting on the bases. Now that is on hold because of a accident that should have never never happen under no circumstance.
Everyone is saying Joey this and Joey that. Well let me tell you something Yes Joey was one of the drivers in a meeting with Dallas but there was two more and I will not mention names because friends are friends. Anyway it came up about Anthony and the drivers ask him about the rule that states that the track has the right to add weight to any car if it is unfair in that class well lets see I have videos showing three wins with at least a half the track lead and where is the rest of the cars on back field racing side by side and no betting or no 360 aiming at a drivers door. You all call my husband a cry baby and other thing let me tell names has never hurt no one excepted the people using them. For Odell reporting what he sees well let me look at this racecaller you said Anthony went in to turn 3 and slide up and spun my husband and that was an accident. Well you might need to look again. The tape shows different. Yes Joey did do a Dale E. rub and bump on Anthony. But when Anthony spun Joey he did not do a 360 and aim car at Anthonys' Door. Anthony did just that a 360 and in driver door. But it is ok for one to do it and another one just looks away and says lets race and race and race. Now lets talk about working on cars You call my husband a cry baby and say he does not work on car well baby let me tell you something. My husband worked some much on the car that I told him one time to move in the garage. The car and garage seen him more than his family did. Now he understands where I was coming from. That 150 and trophy does not mean nothing family is the most important thing you can have. The doctor at the hospital put it in the right words Joey did you see stars tonight and if you did was you counting your life. I would like for everyone to try and get along. I do not know if we will be back. I am pretty sure that we will because I do have obligations to several drivers on taping the races for them and I will stick to it. The drivers that really cares wants me to take pictures and I might and then again I might not. I hate that because I do not know who will take over or what they wiil charge you drivers. I should not care because of some of the statement hear on this and what I have heard said but o well. Like I said words has never hurt no one. THANKS AGAIN JOEY AND BOBBIE STANCIL
Bobby & joey
You can sue for med cost and lost wages!
Well race drivers and race fans, what I had seen wasn't racing and intolerable at any event...Sorry, what do you expect, even play say football and don't expect to be hit.
I was up in the tower area preparing to spot for Cuzz and seen 48 attempting to get under the lead car slightly broke loose and Joey's Car was on a line off the corner very well...Perhaps he could of gotten out of the throttle but very close racing indeed.
The one gentleman here states on how Joey attempt and succeeded in wrecking 48 must first understand what a wreck is....Usually the wall if a defining point ..
My race I was hammer six times, mostly just racing, perhaps twice never should of happened I never seen no reason for retaliation.....
What I had seen was an act of cowardice, nothing more...you can't meet the man one to one no better than those thug gangster rapper and such...
I like Joey, his wife, I like Anthony, he has always been cordial and polite around me...but he don't need to be on the track no more....Dallas, as a responsible person in our community should step up like he should, take command of this situation and remove Anthony permanently, with no exceptions...Beechbend has a similar episodes a few years ago and removed the driver and another shameless track allowed him to return to racing, go figure...
Dallas need to consider his lack of action in these matters will only allow these events to continue, if allowed to continue when will one of these include someone trying to run over one of his workers, a family member or perhaps maybe physically harm Dallas...
For the record, Dallas, has done more for Bowling Green and the surrounding areas and should always be held in high regard for everything he has done...But, this is a serious sport with serious outcomes if not addressed professionally....Dallas, how would you feel when you would go home one night and not ever see one of your family members or friends again..
Anthony, I hope somehow something will turn this bad ordeal and everyone heals....But you need not only be held responsible, but also accountable for your actions...
Our Thoughts and Prayers go out to you both Joey and Bobbie! Hang in there be strong and turn the other cheek because what comes around in life with go around I wish nothing bad on anyone,You have young kids out there racing and looking up to the older racers, want to be like them one day and become someone and this is not how it should have happened. Now Joey is hurt and you all are going to go though some hard times The Fans at Beech Bend should look at this and think what if this was my husband or friend It is hard to go though I am sure You both are Great people and i know you do alot for Beech Bend So I hope that People who make Comments will not only think about what happened to Joey but think about the hard times you are going to go though Everyone needs to come together and help you and be there for you both he is hurt but you are hurting too because you thought you had a friend and it turned out to be a bad deal, everyone wants to be a winner but you should not act like that to get the winning place. I just would hope that the owner of the #48 car and the driver can come to Joey and ask if they could do anything for him and you. Everyone needs to pull together and help you all out. I do not know the driver of the #48 car but if he thinks that this is the way it is done I do not think he needs to be on the track I know people get mad and go off but what hurt me the most was when he got out of the car and was hitting Joey though the window that was sad he did not know if he had killed Joey or not Fighting is Trash and nothing good has ever came out of fighting.Be fair and care for others treat others the way you want to be treated and i am sure Joey did not want to be put in the wall that is not fair at all. So for #48 driver I hope you can see that nothing good came out of this now you have a man with a broken leg and he can not work he has a family to take care of and does this make you feel good about your self is all i am asking. Joey take care and Bobbie hang in there our prayers are with you both... Bad things happen to Good people that is what is sad in life. and as far as the comments go out to odell respect him and his wife. I hope we will see more safe racing for the rest of the year 2008!
Let me begin by saying that I wish Joey and Bobbie nothing but the best.And I will keep you in my prayers. What happened has no place in any sport. Anthony was way out of line. Then to take a few CHEAP SHOTS after the crash while Joey was still in the car was a sorry sight !!!! I lost a lot of respect I had for the 48 driver. The 2 week suspension is a joke. And from what I heard was that Dallas said that he was barred from the street mod but he could still run his sportsman car. If that is true that is total BULLCRAP. Remember when Mike Mason intensionally hit Jerry Newkirk he was barred for the year. Anthony showed a total lack of respect for his fellow racer. I would expect better from a 2 time track champion. I'm sure you made your sponsers proud. The track should do the right thing and barr him for the rest of the year.
This is for Docracing
I guess you have not been around Beech Bend that long. (Maybe 3 to 4 yrs) Because this happen a least once a year. This is no different then the 4( in the front wheel drive class) car out there taking people out. Execpt someone got hurt. Hammerhead did not wanted to see Joey get hurt. This is alot of build up of over 2 years. I will say that i have seen worst things happen at the bend. Plus if you go aroung race track, That is what the Bend is know for. Fights, Wrecks, etc. Then everyone thinks Hammerhead should be Barred for Life. Sorry he will be back This Friday in the Sportmans Division. We are talking about someone that helps people at the track. Like he did Joey Sold him 4 Brand new tires for 125.00. YOU GOING TO TELL ME THAT YOU WOULD NOT BE MAD IF SOMEONE TRY TO TAKE YOU OUT. yEA GO ON AND LIE ABOUT IT. WHO EVERY SAID THEY WOULD NOT BE MAD. Why not put rules on this class, then the cry babies can all go to bed with there bottles and pacifiers. You know if you can't beat them then spin them out and cry about it. I know Joey is not the only on that was saying things. Hammerhead bought his car off of the same person that Joey did. Joey has the best equipment that money can buy. What it all came down too was someone should have bought Hammerheads Motor. The track caused this more than anybody. When they add 400 lbs to hammerheads car. He was already over a 100 lbs. I am not trying to make things up about the wreck. He just lost his cool. I AGREE THAT THE HIT WAS UNCALLED FOR. The only reason this is a big deal is because someone is hurt. PLUS EVERYONE SAYS YOU WIN 150.00. TRY 100.00 THAT IS WHAT YOU WIN. ODELL Hammerhead did not take cheap shots at Joey. He said that he grapped him a couple of times and asked why he spun him. Bobby about Hammerhead spinning Joey if you recall they both spun out. First night out with an extra 400lbs. Now you try going into a curve with a extra 400lbs and see if the car does not slided. Like someone said today on here Hammerheads car works real good through the corners.That is how he won all his races. Joey and Bobby my family and church will be prayig for you all.
You know what? If he did not get out of his car. He would have not got barred at all.
Please let me start out by saying this is my voice and my voice alone. It does not speak for the rest of my family. That is what Odell's site does. He works hard at what he does it is his site, if you don't like what he has to say, stay off the site. I am deeply hurt over what happened and worry as a mother everytime mine crawls into a car. Everyone loses temper
from time to time. We are all sinners saved by Gods grace. But to hit a man that has passed out from pain is more than I can take in. If Anthony is allowed to drive Friday night in sportsman, I pray my son will not. I like Joey, Bobbie, and Anthony but right is right. Two weeks is a joke. Not for the wreck but for what happened on the track. I pray for peace and understanding in this matter and I pray for a speedy recovery for Joey. Come on Dallas do the right thing.
Linda C
To Racecaller and any others that may need attention...And racecaller, I perceive that you are probably emotionally attached to this situation, so bear with me here:
First of all, I don't care what you perceive what I do on or off the track in certain situations....I say what I say and also do what I say. I am not a follower, but try to lead by example..Sorry though, if it don't show on track finishing order Ha!...Don't try to explain something else and fit the square peg in the round hole.
The remark, which is snide in itself, and yes, condecending that punishment was administered only by class restriction and run now in the sportsman is surely ignorant basically snubbing the event in everyone's face...A car in another division can do the same effect. The automobile is not responsible for its actions. No punishment for the crime...SORRY, BUT OUT IN THE WORLD action within our system would have been swift and pragmatic. My daughter gets longer suspensions from her life for far less serious infractions...If that was my car on that track that night, that driver would never, ever drive for me again, even if it was my own son.
Please don't tell me that you take a 3000lb car and drive broadside into another vehicle that no malice was intended...Then you tell me that I lie on this site about my intent and word...If I drove my car like he did, I know I intended malice....Don't even question my integriety of my word, my life has been based on my word.
And with this whining about the weight (which I believe it justifiably unfair) is bull.....I don't care if the pope himself demanded the weight change only those who run and officiate deem that power...Next, do we see an attack on the fans or the officials of the track or now the owner for justification...
Now for the crew of the 48 who are dedicated good people and I know have no malice within them, please those in this crew I wish you the best, those who look from the outside don't judge this crew for the actions of one...Mostly I know the guys in my division, but, have had the honor of meeting many of the great people in other division and enjoy each and everyone of them..I hope to continue this tradition...
I don't know what you said about Anthony driving in another class is true...BUT, if Dallas can not stand up for what is the right thing to do, then perhaps I need to move on....There is a point in life where you move from boyhood to manhood and Dallas has too many years separated from that decision.
OH, about past episodes, past bad behavior does not justify present day bad behavior...Anthony came off the corner trying to get under the leader loosened up and Joey hit him and finished it...COuld JOey got out of the throttle, I can't say...two hundred yards across the track, I am not in control of the throttle and the timeframe....
For Odell, he is trying to get the respect (in the public arena) that racing is due...The fans expect wrecks, they demand action, competition, and a winner in the winner's circle...There is a definite crowd that will not return to the track because of actions just like that....As a doctor, one night twenty or more of my patients came to watch me race...A near riot broke out and fortunately nobody came to harm..but most of the people came to me and stated they enjoyed themselves but would not return because of what happened...Please don't degrade Odell and say that his site is nothing but trouble...No assault of Friday nite, no venue on this blogsite on saturday...Just like blaming the woman who gets raped in the park,,,,everyone blames her for being in the park....
Until those who are responsible and accountable step up to the plate, that includes the offender and the parties who control the event, nothing good will come out of this..
Dallas, as a owner if you can't put on your boots and make the commanders decision then you need to place someone there that can...I myself see the lack of control at this facility. Since I have been in kentucky racing the outlaw track system only has demonstrated trouble...Many tracks are now closed and gone due to the lack of control and continuity...Go up north and these tracks have been in operation for fifty or more years and continue to be strong venues with the community...I have seen atleast two dozen tracks within the past ten years that are gone because of the "outlaw" venue. Dallas, setup now~!!!!
AS I'VE SAID BEFORE, THIS IS NOT RACING WHAT ANTHONY DID, JUST GETTING ANGRY AND TAKING IT OUT ON THE TRACK. IF DALLAS LETS HIM RACE IN ANOTHER DIVISION THEN WHAT WILL HAPPEN IS SOMEONE IS GOING TO COME RACE THE REST OF THE SEASON JUST TO TAKE HIM OUT. THEY WON'T TAKE A CHEAP SHOT AND HIT HIM IN THE DOOR AS HE DID JOEY, THEY WILL WAIT AND WHEN HE LEAST EXPECTS IT HE WILL BE SPUN IN EVERY RACE SO HE WILL NEVER WIN ANOTHER RACE. IF I WAS THE OWNER ON THE #48 CAR I WOULD HAVE ANOTHER DRIVER AND MAYBE ANTHONY WOULD THINK ABOUT WHAT RACINGS ALL ABOUT. IT SHOULD BE A CLEAN FAMILY SPORT THAT EVERYONE CAN ENJOY. SO ANTHONY IF DALLAS DOESN'T TAKE YOU OFF THE TRACK, SOMEONE ELSE PROBABLY WILL, BECAUSE JOEY HAD A LOT OF FRIENDS. I WOULD ALSO BE WORRIED HOW YOUR GONNA PAY THE HOSPITAL BILLS AND IF YOU CAN'T??? IS THE CAR OWNER RESPONSIBLE??? SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT.
you people need to get your facts before you come on here and run your mouths...........Dallas Jones is responsible for all medical bills and if anyone tries to take anthony out it will be a bad night....He didnt say one word when they made him add the weight...He is a really good guy you people need to leave him alone you know nothing............
FIRST OF ALL TO JOEY AND BOBBIE MY PRAYERS GO OUT TO THE BOTH OF YOU. AS FAR AS WHAT HAPPEND FRIDAY NIGHT I THINK IT IS BULLCRAP IT SHOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPEND YEA I AGREE RUBBIN IS RACING BUT WHAT ANTHONEY DID IS NOT RACING I HAVE ALL THE RESPECT FOR ALL OF THE DRIVERS BUT WHAT ANTHONY DID WAS UNCALLED FOR AND SHOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPEND AND I AGREE DALLAS SHOULD STAND UP AND DO WHAT IS RIGHT BUT THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN

This is Beech Bend at its finest. I no longer visit the track. I visit several tracks a year, all with good car counts. If everyone would sit back and take a look at the big picture they would realize this is why Beech Bend has no cars! That place is lucky to have a total of 50 cars in all classes in one night. This is all a product of Dallas Jones. The street mod class has hardly any rules. Its a monster they have created and can only blame themselves when they are getting beat by 1/2 a track. Incidents like this happen every single year, in all of the classes. I personally think there is no place for it. I hate to see someone get hurt when something like this happens. Escpecially Joey, he is a fine man. He even let me borrow his car one night to make some laps and get points. But, if you want to be fair about it (HAHA beech bend and fair) the penalty should be no differnt than it has been in the past. Regardless if someone gets hurt. Drivers do things like this because they know they can get away with it. Another monster of Beech Bend and Dallas Jones. I always said its going to take someone getting killed or hurt to stop this activity. That is such a sorry way to run a track. It is now a sorry facility to enjoy the fine sport of local short track racing. But like an a s s hole its just my opinion, everyone has one.
MKMsports41, You never had a problem with Beech Bend when you were winning!Oh, but when you started getting your butt kicked it was pack up and stay home. Then blame the track owner. It is easy to put the blame on someone else. Have you ever owned a race track? You have never even owned a business. You say 50 car total count is because of Dallas Jones? Try babies like you that when in the kitchen can't stand the heat and stay home! Try gas at $4.00 per gallon! Brownsville track only had about 10 cars total, highland rim only had about 5 sportsman and only 6-8 late model. Beech Bend has that and more. Then you say modified street has hardly any rules! Have you ever been to a drivers rules meeting in the fall of the year? The drivers vote of the rules! besides that has nothing to do with what Anthony did when he drove into the door of Joey. Micheal read the rule but it says that if a car has a advantage over the rest of the field then the track official's have the right to add wieght. You make it sound like Beech Bend is the only track to have this kind of stuff go on! All tracks do. And most all track penalize the driver and then let him return. Hey even in the US courts if you kill someone that only give you 10 to 15 years and then you return. So for most part Beech Bend tries to be fair. And last but not least your right, you have your opinion and I have mine. So take your car and go to the rim or just set home and watch NASCAR. But stop running down the only place that we racers and fans have locally to race at. Yours Truly, I LUV RACING
To Everyone Reading this.
This arguing and complaining on a blog site is for the birds I mean you know what happened i agree was wrong but its happened and we have to go on with it not dwell on it and argue about. Joey and Bobbie our prayers and thoughts are with you in this painful and hard time, And i mean i like anthoney too he's a good driver Temper just got the best of him i agree he acted out of line on friday night. But what some people have failed to realize people do things sometime without thinking .. Im not making up excuses for what he done .... But instead of arguing about it do something about it like talk to dallis .... I agree that something like this happens every year and it shouldnt because someone will get killed and then they're wont be anyone to apoligise to or place blame on. Me and Fiance go to the races on friday night to have fun and watch some good ole clean racing and i yet to see that this year everyone bumps and runs some time in their carreer this bumping just led to something far more worse. Instead of sitting here placing the blame on hammerhead and others talk to dallis make sure he realizes this is ruining his crowd

THIS WHOLE INCIDENT HAS REALLY BEEN BOTHERSOME AND TO SAY THE LEAST,VERY DISTRUBING! I AM TRULY DISQUESTED BY THE ACTS OF ANTHONY RUSSELL. I CAN ONLY HOPE THAT HE CAN CONTROL HIS ANGER WITH HIS WIFE AND KIDS BETTER THAN HE DID WITH JOEY. IF NOT, WE SHOULD ALL PRAY FOR THEM. I HAVE NOTICED COMMENTS THAT ARE ON ANTHONY'S DEFENSE TELLING US "WHAT A GREAT GUY" HE IS. WELL, MANY OF US WOULD HAVE TO SEE IT TO BELIEVE IT AT THIS POINT. A GREAT GUY MIGHT STEP UP TO THE PLATE TO APOLIGIZE TO JOEY, BOBBIE AND ALL IN ATTENDANCE AT BBR FRIDAY NIGHT. A GREAT GUY COULD OPENLY ADMITT WHEN HE IS WRONG! A GREAT GUY WOULD HAVE HAD ENOUGH SENSE TO NOT DO THIS IN THE FIRST PLACE. SO FAR, ANTHONY RUSSELL HAS NOT FALLEN IN ANY CHAPTER IN MY BOOK AS A "GREAT GUY". I WAS SHOCKED AT THE ATTITUDE HE DISPLAYED AFTER THE INCIDENT OCCURED AND HE WAS WALKING OFF THE TRACK. (AS I SEEN THIS FOR MYSELF)ANTHONY SEEMED TO FEEL VICTORIOUS FOR WHAT HE DID TO JOEY. HE SEEMED TO BE EXCITED, PROUD, MACHO AND THE LEAST BIT ASHAMED OF WHAT HE DID. ALL OF THIS WHILE HE WAS SHOUTING NUMEROUS COMMENTS THAT APPEARED TO BE INTENDED FOR ANYONE WITH IN HEARING DISTANCE. HE ACTED AS IF HE HAD CONQUERED THE WORLD BY DOING WHAT HE DID. THEN LATER HE STATES, "WELL, I HATED IT WAS JOEY BUT IT WAS BOUND TO HAPPEN". I TOOK THIS STATEMENT AS WHETHER IT BE JOEY OR WHOMEVER...HE WOULD HAVE DONE IT TO ANYONE. I BECAME ENOUGH MORE DISQUESTED AS I SEEN THE SMILES ON HIS CREWMEMBER FACES AS THEY WERE ALL DISCUSSING WHAT HAPPENED. I BECAME ENOUGH MORE DISQUESTED WHEN I HEARD OTHER PEOPLE TELL HIM THAT THEY WOULD HAVE DONE THE SAMETHING. WE ARE SUPPOSE TO BE RACING. WE ARE SUPPOSE TO PROVIDE GOOD, CLEAN FAMILY FUN. WE ARE SUPPOSE TO REPRESENT OUR SPONSORS. WE ARE SUPPOSE TO REPRESENT OUR FAMILY VALUES. WE ARE SUPPOSE TO SET AN EXAMPLE FOR THE YOUNG RACERS IN THE FANS. WE ARE SUPPOSE TO PROVIDE GOOD CLEAN RACING FOR THE FANS. WE ARE SUPPOSE TO DO UNTO OTHERS AS WE WOULD HAVE THEM DO TO US. THAT'S JUST THE GOLDEN RULE, NOT MY RULE! ANTHONY, WHAT IF THIS WERE YOU? THINK ABOUT THAT FOR JUST ONE MINUTE... NOT ONLY HAVE YOU DEALT JOEY A BAD HAND, YOU ALSO HAVE DEALT BOBBIE ONE AS WELL. NOT EVEN MENTIONING WHAT SHE HAS DONE FOR YOU AND ALL THE OTHERS. LET'S STOP AND THINK ABOUT HER HEALTH FOR A MOMENT... YOU SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO RACE FOR THE REST OF THE 2008 IN MOD. STREET OR SPORTSMAN. IF I OWNED EITHER CAR YOU DRIVE, YOU WOULD NO LONGER BE MY DRIVER. THERE IS NO ONE TO BLAME HERE EXCEPT YOU!!! IF THE ISSUE OF YOU HAVING TO ADD 400 POUNDS WAS WEIGHING ON YOUR MIND THIS BAD...YOU SHOULD HAVE JUST STAYED AT HOME. IF YOU ARE CONFIDENT IN YOURSELF AS A DRIVER, CONFIDENT IN THE CAR AND YOUR CREW, THERE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN A PROBLEM WITH JUST ADDING THE WEIGHT AND CONTINUE RACING. IF YOU ARE AS GOOD A DRIVER AS YOU WANT US TO BELIEVE, THAN YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE HAD ANY PROBLEM CONTINUING TO WIN. AS COMMENTS ON HERE ARE TELLING THE "CRYBABIES TO DO THEIR HOMEWORK"...WELL, IF YOU WOULD HAVE GOTTEN BEAT, YOU COULD HAVE DONE THE SAME...WENT HOME AND DONE YOUR HOMEWORK. INSTEAD YOU ARE HAVING TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT OUT TO REGAIN YOUR DIGINTY. AT LEAST I WOULD BE. IT LOOKS TO ME THAT YOUR WINNING RACES AND CHAMPIONSHIPS HAS CREATED A MONSTER. ONE THAT DOES NOT THINK HE CAN LOSE. ONE THING TO REMEMBER...WHAT GOES UP, MUST COME DOWN. LOOKS AS IF YOU ARE ON YOUR WAY DOWN. THE PROBLEM IS YOU HAVE ENDED MANY FRIENDS BY DOING THIS, YOU HAVE MADE PEOPLE CHANGE THEIR OPINIONS OF YOU AND WHEN YOU LAND THERE MIGHT NOT BE ANYONE THERE TO CATCH YOU OR HELP YOU BACK UP.
TO EDITH:
I AGREE WITH YOU COMMENT TO SOME POINT. THE THING YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER IS THAT (ACCORDING TO 48)"TALKING TO DALLAS" IS WHAT CAUSED THIS WHOLE MESS. ANTHONY DIDN'T FEEL THAT ANYONE SHOULD HAVE "TALKED TO DALLAS". HE DIDN'T LIKE IT. SO, THEREFORE, HE TOOK IT UPON HIMSELF TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
To I luvracing:
Yes, you are correct once....Gas is prohibitive..but, highland rim is a poor, poor, facility, lower payouts (except for Beechbend)...poor maintaince of the track, pits, and running of the track...
You chastize the previous writer based on his past achievements, not current events...Two years ago a woman driver lost her life at Highland Rim because of the same simple facts you attack him for...no rules, no regulations, and especially no enforcement...
What really, really, "SUCKS" and I hate to use that mannerism is that most of ya live in the "I" world, and not in the "WE" world, your owed everything and it is someone elses fault for any one's failure...then you expect a government agency or some reprieve from someone else.
Oh, lets get back to the poor running of the track, luckily when the group from two years ago try to pin and destroy that guy against the wall, one left thru the pits that nut almost (within inches) came from hitting a mother and daughter headon because he was out of control...The two would have no place to run, just pinned between a worthless piece of....racecar and a motorhome...
Again, the problem is not in the blog, it is in the actions of those parties that do the harm...and the one man is right that someone is going to take aim at Anthony, does not make it right to do so, but, then again, no one has stepped up and taken control of what he owns, what he is responsible for and not taken action....Now, with Beechbend's decision, Anthony is now in harms way!!!!!!!!!!!
Now, I just hope Anthony is not at that end of the rope...
Once again, Outlaw track, no regulations, no leadership from it, and even the person (driver) who achieves by the vague rules will get the you know what...
And to say that "We" are tearing down the only race track avaliable to us, hmmmmmmmmmmmmm, why is there only one, and why is it in this state of disrepair...If it becomes a danger to society, then it should be gone...NHRA even know this and has gone ahead to be responsible for making changes immediately to its program because they understand that one loss of Scott Kalitta was one too many...
Once again, one, no regulation, two, bad and rough driving, why no black flag....three, Impale a race car into another driver's door at speed, no discipline, no arrest...not a word from beechbend will ever be issued..Probably the only way I will find out is from you....sad to act in cowardise, ain't it...multimillion dollar business and can't talk....
If you don't like the whining and complaining now, look to those in the stands, if you think your fellow racers are upset, what about the people who shell out fifty or more bucks of their money working in a factory or some hell hole to relax and enjoy themselves and come to see that mess. I don't know about you, maybe your finances are limitless, but, to me fifty dollars still means fifty buck!!!!!!!
If you like Anthony, support Anthony....If you think Anthony did wrong and you think he is a good man, still support Anthony..but don't skate and use nonsence to diminish what happened.
Odell, if you don't like what people say, give'em hell, you don't like what I say, give me hell to!!!!!
As Forrest Gump had to say, "That's all I have to say about that subject!!!!'
There was two other drivers at the meeting that agreed with joeys protest are they next! should they carry weapons in there cars. where does it stop!!!!
abc123,get a life,job,or something? your making this whole situation worse by stupid commets.
First of all I would like to say to Joey, I hope you recover quickly and your still my #1 race driver :) Bobbie and Joey you know what happened and that it was devastating not only to your enjoyment of racing but to your personal lives, as much as both of you have help other racing families out and been their for their support and this is how you get treated, you never know who you can trust and who your real friends are. All this crap about Joey a cry baby...blah blah blah if it was reversed and joey's car was leading and staying a head with 1/2 track distant, don't you think someone would say something about his car... and in one post earlier said "Didn't want to Joey to get hurt", come on now it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that with a 3000 lb car coming straight at your driver side door it is going to hurt someone...what about after the accident and the 43 car driver coming over to the car and hitting joey while sitting there in pain, instead of seeing if he was okay...come one not trying to hurt Joey...yeah right! Anyway if his car(43) was so great then why worry about all the crybabies, as you call them go on out and race and show them that you can still win with the weight added. I do believe that rubbing is racing and that there is certain limits you can take and if you don't have the temper to handle a little bumps here and their get off the track. Joey has always been a clean racer and if he did accidentally get in to another car he would go up and apologize after the race. What's right is right and wrong is wrong..
First of all God bless you Joey and give you a speedy recovery. As a former fagman and a very loyal fan, I would like to put in my opinion it does not matter who is involved this sort of thing should have been stopped years ago.It seems as the track officals think this sort of action draws a crowd. Maybe it does draw a few people, but there are a lot of young people that would like to race that won`t because they don`t want to worry about being crippled for life, just because someone got mad at them.Also a lot of fans don`t want to see this kind of thing go on.My grandson raced in that division and not because he was afraid we took his car home and parked it, he was only 17 and was not big enough to cause any problems. But he was very competive and one driver was very good at spinng him out and damaging his car . We did not bring Casey up to be a trouble maker or to fight, so we just parked his car.There was 17 family members, plus part of his sponsers that came to watch him. Now I am the only one out of the group that comes. And the trouble maker caused a serious problem ,and is now gone plus the one he had the problem with and their familys and crews. My point is that had this been stopped when it first started we all might still be rubbing and racing.But the way racers are allowed to act it probally would have been another driver.I personally would like to see tougher regulations and good old door to door tight racing. But as someone else said that is my opinion and I guess I am entilted to it.Come on racers, race hard and clean, and maybe we can get back to having a lot of cars and a good crowd to support you.Aubrey Turner
First of all, Joey I wish you a speedy recovery.
Second of all,
I just cannot understand why anyone would attempt to crash anyone the way that Anthony wrecked Joey.For one thing you are risking someone's life, Second you are destroying you car,Now we have lost 2 more cars in a division that use to have 2 features every night, Now we have hardly enough cars to run a division. Everyone complains about the cost of racing but when you do a bonehead move like this what does anyone expect.
It is just a shame that it has boiled down to a driver crashing into another driver risking his life plus his own life.When all you have to do is communicate with each other. If you don't like the way a guy is racing against you, Go speak to him or call him. It should never come to this type of action being taken.
I know we have had problems at Beech Bend but I have been to several racetracks all over this area. Being dirt,asphalt, oval, drags, even mud boggs or tractor pulls, this stuff tends to happen whenever someone is competing against one another.But we need to pull together as a racing community now more than ever.Drivers and crew need to understand , Everytime something happens like this,it hurts the fans,the racers, the sponsers and the track.
Nothing will ever become good of this incident. It only lessens what we truly love to do.
Joey, I hope that you feel better soon. Bobbi, I appreciate everything you do to help everyone at the track. You two are truly amazing people and wonderful to be around.Call me if you need anything.
Billy Grider
First and foremost my thoughts and prayers to Joey and his family. I am a member of the #48 team, and we are very proud of our entire team. Without all of us this team wouldn't exist and have been as successful as it is now and in the past. A good and dedicated driver is a must. Anyone who knows Anthony Russell, or any of us on the team, knows we do everything we can to help others and just want go out to have a good time and race. We definitely aren't making any money doing this. No one really is. If you weigh your cost versus your payoff, your costs really out weigh your reward. But the true reward comes in the fans and the feeling of winning. Friday night's events were unfortunate. And a person can only be pushed around so much before they break. Anthony was a direct reaction to the actions against him. I believe deep down we all know that Anthony is only human and met his breaking point. After all this is a sport and emotions can run high at times. He is not a danger to the track or anyone out there. I don't believe any driver should come out and race with the intent of hurting someone or destroying a team’s hard work. I know that Anthony was just hoping to do well that night considering the changes we were forced to make to the car. And I know we all felt anxious about what the car would even be able to do that night. And as far the "crybabies" if you can't stand the heat stay off the track. I think everyone is there for 1 main goal, to win! I know we all work constantly to improve ourselves and our car. If we are beating you just work harder on your car. If you feel we have a better motor BUY IT! Or make an offer on the WHOLE car if your feeling like you can do better with what we have built! We just want to come out, race, hopefully win, then look forward to the next race. We want to be fair. That's why we added the weight the last time and didn't contest it. It was decided and we followed through. What is the point in naging and picking eachother apart! If you think there should be more rules I guess we need a "Come to Jesus" meeting with Dallas and the drivers and more rules can be added/deleted. But we are here to race and do our best. We will not be run over though, time and time again, without giving a little of it back. No one is expected to just take it year in and year out and never do anything about it. That's just not reality. Look at Nascar, Busch or any other series. Wrecks happen all the time. Some intended, others just because something happened. Its not the end of the world. But we have to get up, move on and try to make the best decisions we can while on (or off) the track. So, with that said, let’s move on and get back to the sport and race! And hope that everyone can leave their BS at the gate and just have a good time.
oooops forgot the L former flagman Aubrey
God Speed and a healthy recovery Joey. You are in our thoughts and prayers. You are truly a great friend and racer. I hope you recover soon!
This is the exact reason that I drag race. We always try to respect each other and always display sportsmanship. This type of situation has never happened in my 20 years of drag racing at Beech Bend, and if it has, it was never spoken of. I am not talking down to the stock car racers at all. I have the utmost respect for you and your abilities. I even come out and watch and usually help the old Spin Doctor occasionally. But, that doesnt change alot of opions of people and stock car racing. You can talk to people from age 20-70 about stock car racing at Beech Bend and the first thing someone usually says is about fighting, drinking, and intentionally wrecking people; well, it appears that some things dont change. This accident was completely uncalled for. I truly hate this for Beech Bend, Dallas, and Clay. It does not represent them as the great people as they are. Dallas does wonders for the whole racing community and unfortunately something like this happens and puts him in a situation that I am sure that he doesen't want to be in. I hope this will pass and those involved will make their ammends and move on! We are one big racing community and I think it is time we come together and heal! Thanks! Allen
There is a difference between spinning a guy out and assault with a deadly weapon !!
joey did nothing wrong! he wanted his class more competitive and as for the race friday night you don't know wheter he meant to spin you(anthony) out or not! have you talked to him, no i don't believe you have! do you know how he's doing probably not, other then what you might here from other people! i think that you were very wrong for what you pulled on the track friday night and that there are no excuses that you can give to justify what you did! so what you had to add 400lbs to your car, so what if joey was one of the drivers to suggest that something be done! you call joey a crybaby, i think you are the crybaby! you are the one that was cryin about having to add weight to your car! so quit your crying and own up to what you have done! you screwed up and you know it! all you remind of is a little billy williams! you can all the beating and banging you want but when someone repays you for what you did to them you say they was on purpose and you was on accident! that is bull and you know it! what it all boils down to is that you were wrong all the way around! you lost a friend at the track and you lost respect! not just from me but from several drivers and race fans!!!! GOOD LUCK JOEY ON YOUR RECOVERY AND WE WISH YOU THE BEST OF LUCK!!! YOU NEED ANYTHING YOU CALL!!!!LOVE YOU BOTH!!! AND BOBBIE DON'T PUSH YOURSELF TO HARD WE DON'T NEED YOU DOWN TOO!!!!
#10 RACE FAN AND ALSO A BILLY GRIDER FAN ( HIS #1 FAN! haha)
Again we would like to thank everyone for they prayers and thoughts. I take him back to doctor tomorrow and we hope to find out more about his leg. He is being a pretty good patient. We will be going by BBR while we are out tomorrow and turn his transponder in. As of right now he will not be out Friday night to watch he is just not in the mood to sit to long. All he does is lay with his leg elevated. We have talked and I plan on finishing my obligations to the drivers, fans, and family at BBR. We would like to send a SPECIAL THANK YOU TO Harold Peacock,Hillvue Heights Baptist Church, Brad James and his paint crew on finishing up the job Joey was doing. Also to everyone that has posted and supported us through this. You never know what is going to happen in life until it happens to you and we know this is meant to bring us closer in life and faith.
i was at the race track friday, and from what i saw and got on tape was joey starting this big mess. anthony was not mad when he had to put 400 pounds on his car. he was ready to show that it aint just the car that wins the race its the person driving the car!!!! if you are a race fan you should already know that. i'm sorry for what happened to joey that night(really) but he done it to himself buy trying to put anthony out of the race because anthony was winning yet again after he added the Extra 400 pounds. that is where that started. and what happened last year with tony r. was not anthonyS doings. and if you dont know anthony russell then dont judge him by what happens out on the race track. if one of you poeple were driving in the 48 car and joey(10) comes up two or three time and tries to put you out of the race because the (10) car was not winning the race yet again, you trying to tell me you wouldnt be mad and do some stuff like that. I DONT THINK SO!!!! i am a GIRL and i would have been very ticked off and probly done the samething.
oh, one more thing what happened when the (4) car in frontrunner when he hit on of the guys out there and got out of the car. what did they do then. NOTHING!!!! they paid the dudes way back in the next time. so that is called racing too. I DONT THINK SO.
ANTHONY DID NOT TAKE CHEAP SHOTS ON JOEY WHEN ANTHONY WHEN UP TO JOEYS CAR. I HAVE IT ALL ON TAPE IF YOU ALL WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT (YET AGAIN).
i'm not trying to make anyone mad or anything but some of yall dont know the whole story. so please zip it.
WE LOVE YALL RUSSELL
Hey friends, readers of this blog site and so on. I feel that we all have had ample time to post our comments. Some are in favor of Anthony and other don't like what Anthony did. However, I am asking for us all to end this back and forth posting. It is time to move on. I love stock car racing and my sole purpose with this blog site is to promote all forms of motorsports and keep fans up to date with news and rumors. I think that all drivers at Beech Bend in all classes need to take a deep soul search of yourself and then join together as follow racers and have FUN and race hard but lets STOP ALL crazy things that can hurt or KILL your fellow racer and friend. So, once again DO THE RIGHT THING AND THINK FIRST OR COUNT TO 10 BEFORE YOU LET THAT TEMPER GO FLYING. From a real FAN of stock cars and author of this site, Odell Turner. GOD Bless us all!
Yes Odell,
Perhaps we should all zip it...but then, don't have the blog site, don't have a poll on this asking on what should be done....Forgive me Odell, for I have sinned.
In this instance, friday nights bad incident there is finally a medium of discussion that shows how much this is type of action on the track is not wanted and also the lack of action taken of those in charge.
Everything that needs to be said always points to accountability...No one wants to be accountable...
The Stancils have been quiet, Anthony himself has also been reserved...BUt everyone who claims to be Anthony friends are telling his side of the story for him...Please don't make us (the public forum) to believe what you think he is thinking...
The last blogger here still does not get the point...How much in thousandths of a inch of cold rolled steel was left in that race car before someone was killed...How much more horsepower in a race car before someone is killed...
Yes, talk about the videos, but surely don't talk about the part of the video that one race car spears another race car in the driver's door...There is no square peg that fits the round hole.
To all those who are really upset that this has happened for showing such restraint regarding Anthony...though upset you mostly have tried to refrain from being over emotional...I can't figure those who are trying to justify this in this and chastizing the next potential victims
I know Odell, you wish to close this chapter and move on...but no movement will ever occur while the blinders stay on...Next year or following that the big one will return and perhaps we will be taking a collection plate for the funeral and family so they can survive for a few weeks until the next collection is taken up for another cause...
Again, I don't understand when a woman comes on here and tries to say that Joey did it to himself...Sorry, he wasn't in control of the wheel, or the throttle....
Oh, when twenty years roll by and you see Joey limping heavily and with joint pain....perhaps you will understand when your elderly hips, ankle, or other joint pains come to you naturally....
Mostly what I have seen from 48 supporters that Joey had it coming but your sorry for that he is hurt, truly consoling....
Anthony, hope you are doing well considering everything that happened to everyone here in just a blink of an eye....Stay close to those that do support you and stay away from those who try to stir the pot, so to speak...your a good wheel man, seen ya in action...But some of the people on here I truly don't know what a wheel is...
Thanks Odell,and Doc for your last comments. We was hoping that someone would post to the comments. Yes we want the same thing good clean racing and no on to go out there and take revenge on what has happen. Joey was man enough to say he did spin Anthony out. So I am proud of him for that. But for the rest well we will keep it to ourself. Like we said WE THANKS EVERYONE FOR THE PRAYERS, SUPPORT, AND THOUGHTFULLNESS. We would like for the posting to stop also. TO AIR IS HUMAN.
Hey you know what the comments have to stop its like a toddler on here trying to start more crap well the incident is done and over with grow up and act like adults about it Joey your being a good sport about the whole incident and yes its great to vent but hell people are starting to get on here and try to be smart asses and thats not right hell joey could have been killed i mean i like anthoney and joey both im not taking sides just saying its bullshit that people are taking it to the extremes that they are .. You know who you are.. Get a life and there is nothing you or anyone else can do to make things better other than going out thre and racing clean ... I think i spoke my opinion but hope to see joey out bbr soon
Bobbie and Joey your in our thoughts and prayers good luck hope for a speedy recovery.
ps when will racing ever be the same a beech bend ...
Hey everyone, hope you are all doing well...See the cream rose to the top without pointing a finger to no one....now welds caused the injuries..
Hey Odell, let's go fishing that is something that is less mindless...I've got the bait if you have the rods....
Maybe we should play a little Temptations, "I wish it would Rain" and maybe dilute everything so the following friday will be happier..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbiLZS_HFx0
Both cars in the wreck were built by the same person.So i do not believe the welding was the problem,because it held up pretty good on the other car that hit the #10 car.
Yes both cars were built by Rick Stamper. Rick builds the best stock car around here. That was a hard hit. I talked to Anthony yesterday, He is ready to get on with his life. Sometime when you are mad you do stupid things. He was not the only one at fault here. I am not talking about the race either. People on this (TROUBLE MAKING SITE)NOT MENTION NO NAMES is just making things worse. If you were at the races Friday, you can see that Anthony did not drive across the track 200 feet and hit Joey. People laughing at Joey and Anthony this is not right either. ( TALKING ABOUT OTHER DRIVES IN THE MODIFIED STRRET CLASS) Those drivers know who I am talking about. (For the laughing drives) The only way you could win if, you were the only 2 out there. (For one driver) The car you races has always carried the checked flag until now.Anthony's car will be fixed and will return in 2 weeks. Dallas needs to give Anthony and Joey some money for all the extra people that will be there friday night. That is how Dallas and his staff thinks about this stuff. (LIKE WRECKS AND FIGHTS) DALLAS And his staff thinks this is a soap that comes on Mon-Fri. This has been a bad time for Joey and his family (I will keep you'll in my prayers.I will also keep Anthony Russell family in prayer.He and Lisa is having a rough time with this junk.
So like Bobbie said lets get over it. Move on
I went and seen Joey and Bobbie tonite after work and yes i took them wings.... Joey had not one bad word to say about anyone and i think that takes a hell of a man not to say anything bad about anyone when he is layed up and can not do anything at all... Lets all keep them in are prayers and support Bobbie for being at the track with out Joey this Friday...God Bless you Both .. Tammy
Tammy....Tammy.....Tammy, you know Joey in his condition couldn't eat all those wings by himself.......and you forgot me, again!!!!!
