A long season yet, but what if Kyle Busch wins the Cup and Dale Jr. comes in second..*. *.*.*. *ally came out with the better deal... Rick Hendrick or Joe Gibbs?
Rick Hendrick has shown lately he doesn't take people throwing tantrums on his team very well since the removal of Brian Vickers and then Kyle Busch. Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson tried several times to reach out to Kyle, but he made it clear he was unhappy at Hendrick's. So he goes to Joe Gibbs with a possible season-long grudge against Dale Jr. and wins the championship. Should Hendrick be hitting himself in the head for the missed chance for adding to his trophy cases? No. Here's why...
Kyle was not fitted for Hendrick's. He's happier at Gibbs' and he's made that more then obvious. Obviously when you're happier you're going to run better. Kyle might have won a Cup for Hendrick, but I doubt it. Also, while Kyle has the talent... he's kinda rude. He throws insults around without thinking about the words truly.
Sooo... Rick Hendrick gets Dale Jr. solidly in the Chase with a chance to win the cup and legions of fiercely loyal fans who buy enough merchandise for them to build a whole another Hendrick "campus" if they wanted. Dale Jr. will win and he will please fans, plus he seems to watch his words more.
So I think the move was necessary. I don't think if Kyle gets the Cup that Rick Hendrick will have to say "Man, I should have tried harder with that kid"... it wasn't meant to be with Daddy Rick. I just hope this doesn't come true and the roles are reversed with Dale winning the Cup personally.
