Busch: Edwards is his 'bff'

What rivalry? Kyle Busch jokingly says Carl Edwards is his "bff," text message shorthand for best friend forever. Edwards stopped short of such a commitment, but he did say, "I feel like we really have been good competitors." Although 12 drivers, including the two-time reigning Cup champion Jimmie Johnson, will be in the 10-race Chase for the championship that begins Sept. 14, it seems most everyone expects Edwards and Busch to be the focus of the postseason. Everyone, that is, except Busch and Edwards. But that result would be just fine with both of them. "It's very cool to have our team running so well, to be on top of our game, and it's really fun to have somebody like Kyle that's so fast," Edwards said Friday. "There have been a couple of races where it's like either me or him, and I think that brings out the best in a lot of people. For us, it's been a lot of fun. Like I said, if it comes down to just him and I for the championship, that would be fine. But I have a feeling some of these other guys are going to have something to say about that."

Don't trust him Kyle.
Carl Is dirty, Sneaky, untrustworthy, hates children, and probably a communist.
Look all kidding aside what these two got going is great for NASCAR.
JR has got to find himself a way to get mixed up in this somehow and make it a three ring circus.

Don't trust him Carl,
Kyle is smelly, a bully, hates barbers, and has been seen with
cross dressers!
Listen, all BS aside, between these to guys is all that is happening in Nascar.
JR, keep you eyes wide open and look for that opening when the Lyle and Carl show in up in the wall.
Don't join in on the Horse and Pony show!
Hey, "It Is What It Is" LOL

Hey Shave, How was that!!!!
Good Morning

Perhaps Jr. could be the clown with 20 other clowns in the car. The way he has been finishing this year, it looks like he has extra weight in the car LOL
Just kidding, not bashing. Jr. is my bff

I was saying yesterday, I'm just not sure what anyone can do to wake this guy up.
I don't believe it is his crew or Equipment that is holding him back- Being way to cautious for my likings.

Jackman, I see you sneaking around on the other pages this morning!

August 30, 2008  09:36 AM ET

FLOAT; Sometimes the apple falls a little further from the tree than it should.
I agree, it's not the crew or the equipment. You have to look at the driver and he just has something lacking. I don't know if it's desire or the little extra drive.
Remember the commercial; This ain't your father's Oldsmobile?

August 30, 2008  09:42 AM ET

Respectfully, that quote doesn't have anything to do with it.
No, he is not his Father, but JR has enjoyed a good racing career, and as we all have seen ALL drivers have their ups and downs.
I think JR will have to get more aggressive, I was watching something last night on TV where someone said "When I get behind the wheel, I expect to win", you can't Base that Quote on how the car is driving, what distractions are going on in life or anything else.
THAT is what has driven Kyle, He gets behind the wheel with ONE MISSION, WIN!

August 30, 2008  09:44 AM ET

Maybe JR needs a bottle of the "Focus Factor" that I see advertised on TV.
LOL

Hey JK, Good Morning,,,, I thought I was talking to SHAVE,,,,Are you two Twins?
LOL

August 30, 2008  09:52 AM ET

Happy Birthday to Harley Davidson!!!

FLOAT; not twins, just able to spot talent. LOL

There a number of teams that can still get into the Chase -- all that has to happen is for them to have a couple of strong finishes and/or the #1 positon have a bad day. With that being said it is now common fact that Elephant Boy doesn't like to be "roughed-up" -- Cousin Carl proved that. There probably needs to be extra rear bumper bracing added to the #18 -- a DNF is in the future. Also, has anyone else noticed Bushy-Baby shaves his eyebrows? LOL

August 30, 2008  10:11 AM ET

JK, there are rumors that you and Shave are indeed the same person, acting as different users,,,,,,,,It all makes sense as there could be only one Busch Fan!!!

LOL,,,,, sorry, I had to get that out! HaHa

August 30, 2008  10:45 AM ET

Float - I apparently offended JoeFord with the Union bashing. You apparently have the hots for the VP hopeful? She is a mother of 5......do you miss your mommie?

August 30, 2008  10:52 AM ET

I miss my Smoking Hot Wife!

August 30, 2008  10:58 AM ET

You all sure that bff doesn't mean something more like 'bumper fodder forever'? Just asking.

August 30, 2008  11:02 AM ET

August 30, 2008  11:06 AM ET
