I heard and recorded the convo on my stiletto. Give me 30 minutes and i'll convert it to mp3 and post it here for anyone that missed it. In a nutshell (pun intended) Moody gave the guy a shovel and let him dig his own hole to crawl in. It was both funny and sad.

This was the email I sent him.

Dear uninformed idiot,

Enjoy the hate mail your going to get over your drivel of an article. You dont deserve to be a journalist if your comparing being a professional race car driver to working at a waffle house.

Sincerly,

Dexter A. Morgan

Here's what i sent him....LOL

You're a complete tool, all of you scribblers these days always have to come up with some way out in left field stance to get readers of that fish wrap you write for and i can understand that to a certain point. But i mean come on, go sit in that car and drive 170+ at Chicago in July for 3 to 4 hours no breaks. All the while your sitting in the air-conditioned press box or media center scribbling your sarcastic dribble and stuffing your pie hole with the "FREE" media buffet. It's easy to talk trash when you've never done it or had to do it.

What is this morons resume when it comes to racing? Does he know anything about it or is he still in the same group of yeehaws that think Nascar is getting drunk and having sex with your sister?

I don't believe he has any sort of background that would qualify him, he's just a hack columnist that can only get readers by being controversial and going against the grain. He probably doesn't believe a word he wrote or said but just does it for exposure. Go read his bio, he never worked in a major market so he's just a local hack that's trying to make the big time.

Hey guess what, this guy is getting EXACTLY what he wanted and his newspaper wanted, hits to their website, and you people sending hate mail because that shows him and his bosses that people are reading what he wrote which in turn will prompt him to write more articles like this one. All you all are doing is throwing gasoline onto a wildfire here and helping it spread.

This debate has been going on for years now, and some of you have even stated it yourselves on here that these guys are turning more into entertainers who drive race cars for 4 hours for the good of the show and the puppetmaster (Brian France). This guy decided to write that same thing and go onto the only 24 hr NASCAR related channel to get you all fired up even more promoting the very article he wrote thus producing more webhits in a week than this guy has probably ever had in a year.

Besides if you read the article with an open mind it did have some interesting points to it. Yes the Waffle House reference was a bit extreme but take that part out it wasn't that bad of an article. Yes I do consider these guys athletes but I just thought it was an article to get a ruse out of people to get hits on a website and guess what, you provided it, by sending the link for the article around the web and in e-mails to most of your friends who are also NASCAR fans in turn who spread them too.

Don't flame me here just wanted to provide a different perspective.

His heart surgeon analogy was classic ignorance, he said a heart surgeon has a high eye to hand coordination as a NASCAR driver does but nobody calls him an athlete...LOL. No genius he's considered a DOCTOR. You MORON, what a TOOL

Did Moody drop the ball when he failed to mention Brendan Gaughan. Nascar driver, Played basketball for Georgetown as a walk on. Played Football for Georgetown as a place kicker in which he converted 39 of 40 extra point attempts in 1994. Not to mention that he was also roommates with Allen Iverson.


Brendon would have been the perfect example to use in this case.

I heard the whole thing as I was trying to keep the pickup on the road during a Colorado front range wind storm. Great debate but I have to agree that this "writer" (I use it loosely) was out to get publicity and hate mail. I'd just chalk it up to another loudmouth idiot.
