Wreck of the week: Same old, same old for Junior

At some point, you've got to start feeling a little bad for Dale Earnhardt Jr. This has been the most wretched season imaginable for NASCAR's most famous driver. On Sunday, he added to his litany of unfortunate 2009 races as he got loose in Turn 4 at Phoenix and collected some big names in the ensuing wreck, including Tony Stewart and Bobby Labonte. Here, take a look:

On the radio afterward, Tony Stewart reportedly called Earnhardt a "no-talent s.o.b." -- I wasn't listening, so I'm not sure if he used the abbreviation or the full words, and if anybody's got copy of that audio, by all means, get it on over here!

In the end, though, another ugly afternoon for Junior, who's probably going to get out of his car at Homestead when the race is over and just run, run, run away.
