I was listening to a NASCAR podcast the other day (the podcast is from Rowdy Racing - it's GREAT) and they had an interview with Jimmie Johnson who was talking about his diet and exercise regimen. He was talking about how he keeps careful track of his "proteins and carbs", and works out, and how he hasn't had a cheeseburger or pizza at all.
Let me ask a question.
Do you think Richard Petty kept track of his "proteins and carbs"?
Do you think Dale Earnhardt kept track of his "proteins and carbs"?
Do you think the NASCAR fans at home who are laying on their couches, watching the races eating pizza, nachos and wings, washing it down with beer, relate to Jimmie Johnson? At all??
Note to Jimmie's "people": Get that man out, ASAP, to the closest Shoney's, KFC or McDonald's and get that boy photographed eating some REAL REDNECK FOOD. Give him a colon cleanse afterward if you must.
He's never going to be able to parlay all this success into endorsements, merchandise sales, and broadcasting in the future if he doesn't stop acting like a robot! He's going to end up being the winningest driver no one cared about.
The end.
