Petty won 7 by racing in nearly 100 point races per year and scoring better than his competitors. Earnhardt won 7 by being better over 30 plus races. Johnson won his 7th by... eh whatever they’ll change the format again by the time this comment gets posted.

Northern California at that.

...he’s from the South. The American South.

This article was written by a communist.

If they didn’t whine about everything WTF would they write about? God forbid they actually write about cars and stuff. This place is definitely in its death throes. Torch needs his own blog so I can avoid this place.  

Thanks for the politics. Not.

At this point it just makes me laugh. A few things:

Expecting professional writing from Ballaban is about as useful as expecting the president-elect’s finger to reach that last olive in the jar.

Can you keep your petty political bias out of Jalopnik!?! This is my escape from that shit storm to look at fucking cars.

Any ideas of another site? I’m right there with you and ready to go. I’m getting tired of this crap too. Can you imagine the anger if every article started with some biblical reference? People would be apoplectic with rage.

Who’s myopic? The person who just said they’d rather not have to read about political editorializing HERE (they said nothing about overall) or the insufferable jackass who another person to eat a dick and implied that their opinion is irrelevant because they disagreed with you?

but the continuation of it after the election feels like sour grapes.

From an objective perspective of a non-American, I see one person have a polite response kindly asking to keep personal views off the site (which I agree with) and then I see another reply (from you) that is the absolute complete opposite that conjures up the mental image of a bitter one eye’d certified halfwit. Are…

In fairness to that sentiment, if Trump is as Ballaban suggests, a “rotting piece of head cheese” the (gag) is warranted. I think rotting head cheese would make me gag, too.

I’ve been around for quite some time, and can remember when the vitriol was contained to sister sites. I remember when Jalopnik was politics free.

As a Canadian I would like to throw my 2 cents in and say the anti-trump rhetoric is getting real tired on items that dont call for a political spin.

“President-elect (gag) Donald Trump”

The extreme political editorializing on this site is getting old quickly. This may be news to you, but 47% of the country sees things differently than you. Marginalizing half your readerbase is not a good business model.

I’m going to miss NPOCP, but I can’t take anymore juvenile whining about the election. Do yourselves a favor and grow up.
