Top 10 rejected Sponsor Slogans.. By- Rob Faiella Check out ALL our sections and features here!! There is plenty to keep you busy on our main page! I noticed that Nascar.com was running some Top 10 lists from different things through out the season. Paint schemes, Confrontations, Rumors, etc.. I started thinking about my all time favorite Top 10 lists involving racing. After Dale Earnhardt won the Daytona 500 in 1998, he went on David Letterman's show and read this list: Top 10 reasons it took me 20 years to win the Daytona 500 10. It took me 19 years to realize that I had the emergency brake on. 9. Finally rotated and balanced my mustache. 8. Quit training with the Canadian snowboarding team. 7. Stopping letting my 300-pound cousin, Ricky, ride shotgun. 6. New strategy: pretend I'm Dave driving home on the Merritt Parkway. 5. Who cares it took me 20 years- at least my name isn't Dick trickle. 4. Just figured out that if you mash the gas pedal all the way down, the car takes off like an SOB. 3. My new pit crew- The Spice Girls. 2. This year, whenever I passed them, I gave them the finger. 1. My secret to success: one can of motor oil in my engine, one can of motor oil in my pants! So, as my twisted mind works, here are the Top 10 Rejected Sponsor Slogans for 2002: 10. Rusty Wallace: "Miller Lite, just a little bit before each race, and I am good to go!" 9. Jimmy Spencer: "Just remember, my car may have the big red target painted on it, but mess with me and you'll have one too! Jimmy Spencer never forgets!" 8. Ricky Craven: "I was so excited after winning Martinsville, only Tide was capable of cleaning my firesuit!" 7. John Andretti: "John Andretti trusts the same car care specialists that you do." (This is being said as they show John testing at Charlotte. The race he didn't qualify for. Nice choice guys. ) (This commercial really happened) 6. Jeff Green: "AOL's buddy list is great! Me, Robby and Kevin chat all the time!" 5. Mike Skinner: "Break out the Kodak film and take my picture, I'll be fired soon!" 4. Kyle Petty: "Sprint PCS, it's how I keep in touch with the race team when I am watching the race from home." 3. Robby Gordon: "Cingular wireless, what have you got to say?" (Oh no, Robby give the mic back, Robby… give.. it .. Robby…. Give it back!!) 2. Michael Waltrip: "The Napa guys told me to drive slow so you could read the logo". (That explains it) 1. Mark Martin: "My Viagra crew helps get me in and out all day long!!" Ok, so I was bored…. Thanks and keep reading! Rob E-mail Rob Here Check out ALL our sections and features here!!
