It is funny how everyone sides with Dale Jr but we have never heard the other 2 sides of the story (Teresa's and the real truth) We have heard bits in court and the court sided with Teresa.

B/c there is only 1 side. Teresa destroyed Dale's legacy(DEI) by being an incompetent boob and a selfish bitch. She had every opportunity to hand majority control to Junior and Kelley, who know how to run a race operation, but she refused. DEI would still be here today and probably a power team like it was in the early 2000's if she had just let the siblings run DEI. Quit trying to be a contrarian here. There is no other side.

frick Teresa

Sounds like Dale Sr. was a major contributor to the shitshow by not doing proper planning.

It’s always easy to blame the survivors.

Not saying she isn’t everything people are saying about her. But obviously she had some legal grounds that Sr. should have taken care of in advance.

There are numerous people with negative stories about Teresa, though, not just Dale Jr. His sister, his brother, Ty Norris, etc. all have bad things to say about her. And one undeniable fact is that DEI went from being a top team, to no longer existing under her ownership and direction.

Wrong

quote:

Teresa Earnhardt won a small victory Thursday as the U.S. Court of Appeals ruled that the U.S. Trademark Trial and Appeal Board must clarify its decision that allowed Kerry Earnhardt to use the term "Earnhardt Collection" for a collection of custom homes.

The trademark appeal board must reconsider its ruling because "it is unclear whether the Board's analysis properly applied" a past U.S. Court of Appeals decision that is being used as precedence in the Earnhardt case, the three-judge panel ruled.



So there is way more than 1 side, as I said there are 3 sides: Her side, their side, and the actual truth.

One tidbit from Ty Norris episode is that DEI, mainly, Teresa didn't pay the drivers for months.


Yeah, and then basically blew off Junior and Mikey when they wanted a meeting with her to find out why they hadn’t been paid.

Actually they ending up ruling a surname can’t be trademarked by anyone so there is the Earnhardt collection. Hell I could go start and Earnhardt collection if I wanted too.

There's that case yes. But it is being litigated again from what I understood again

quote:

We vacate and remand the Board's finding that KEI's mark EARNHARDT COLLECTION for furniture and custom construction of homes is not primarily merely a surname. On remand, the Board should determine (1) whether the term “collection” is merely descriptive of KEI's furniture and custom home construction services, and (2) the primary significance of the mark as a whole to the purchasing public.

VACATED AND REMANDED


I do not care but to say she does not have a side is inaccurate or only one side. But it is strange everyone bangs on her, but she has yet to speak about the deal. It is just strange.

I think people are rubbed the wrong way by her initiating legal action over Kerry trying to lose his own last name.

I’ve listened to the episode with Kerry, and it was great. I’ve gotta listen to the one with Ty Norris.



I really need to listen to it. And bah Gawd! Kerry is a spitting image of Dale. Holy shite!

Also, Talladega has announced that there will be no capacity restrictions for the stands or infield for the October race. Camping and whatnot is back.

Explain. How is he not?

And “because he’s Dale and we think he’s great” is not a good reason.

Anyone who takes Teresa's side in this and doesn't think she is completely in the wrong is either a moron or just being a contrarian.

“ Teresa Earnhardt, wife of the late Dale Earnhardt, has inherited the six-times NASCAR Winston Cup Champion's estate that includes his fast-rising DEI race team that will be hunting a first NWC title in 2002 with either Dale Earnhardt Jr, Michael Waltrip or Steve Park after their most successful on-track season to date in 2001.

Although the late Dale Earnhardt assets remain private, his estate has been willed to his wife Teresa. Included in the will were his full NASCAR race team business (Dale Earnhardt Incorporated), his Chevrolet dealership, a $300,000 home next to his state of the art racing facility and numerous collector cars and boats.”

Takes her side in what?
She owned the team. Dale did this to everyone by “willing” it to her.
She may be horrible, bitchy, and a terrible business person but it was hers to frick up.

That’s on Sr.

You have an inability here to consider that you could be anything but right. Which, in its self is moronic.

If all she was after was money, she had all the ability to put DEI in the hands of people who would keep it successful. She floundered that opportunity.


She’s just a cold hearted bitch. Ask anyone of the immediate family members, ask Larry Mac, ask anyone at RCR. Hell ask Chocolate or Ted (RIP) and they can give you all the information on how they seen her act behind the scenes.

There’s plenty to be said about Teresa, but it won’t be anything good.

Martha, Dale's mom, didn't think much of her either.

Here's an interview with her from a few years ago. Apparently Junior's mom threw down with Teresa at grandma's house.

In other news, Ryan Newman is out at Roush and so is Kurt Busch at CGR. Don’t know if this has been stated yet in this thread.

I read somewhere (maybe The Athletic) that Kurt is rumored to be the 2nd car for 23XI racing next year.

Yup... Athletic

quote:

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The NASCAR team co-owned by Michael Jordan and Denny Hamlin, 23XI Racing, will expand to a two-car team for the 2022 Cup Series season, The Athletic has learned, those expansion plans coinciding with Kurt Busch emerging as the leading candidate to drive the second car on a full-time basis.

23XI Racing’s expansion comes amid the team’s first season competing at the Cup level. The addition of a second car would not have an impact on Bubba Wallace’s status with 23XI Racing; he will continue driving the No. 23 Toyota in 2022.

“Still working on some things,” Hamlin said Friday at Charlotte Motor Speedway, the site of Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600. “Obviously, there’s a lot of moving pieces that have to go into it. I think we’re still progressing, just don’t have a timetable for it.”

Ok. Following.
Not taking her side.
But Sr. Could have done proper planning to prevent it.

I don’t think SR. planned on going into the wall in turn 4. He was taken too early and at this time, and it was well understood Thundercunts feelings for any kids not hers.

When dale and Teresa were married, Jr. and Kelley had no part in any of SR. Business. Jr. and Kelley were still in school. I promise he didn’t think to update his will every 2 years because Kelley wanted no part in racing and Jr. was a young half drunk kid. Would you want to leave an empire to kids like that?

Had he known what they would build on their own, SR. would have helped them in other ways besides leaving them the keys to his estates.
