Mayfield Question

[georgep]

What did he do PRIOR to being tested for drugs and dropped? There is something BEHIND this whole story other than a drug test.
This reminds be of BELTGATE with Big "E". The belts took a dump, True the whole story was crappy from the start.

some questions i have....

that was one of my questions? do they do random drug testing of ALL drivers? how often?
if not, then why did they test him in the first place? isnt jeff gordon taking pain pills for his back? i know hes taking shots because he said so on tv... what kind of shots? he also said his racing career might be shortened because of his pain... not picking on jeff but drugs are drugs...and pain can definitely affect everything you do including driving...especially back pain.
i agree with the other posts... no matter what the tests show at this time, jeremy's racing career with NASCAR is over... too bad. it was a great way to make a living. ;-)
thanks for any answers that are credible...

if gordon is taking meds and shots for back pain issues.how together is his act?if it is as severe as his condition is made out to be and the meds are strong enough to fully take care of the pain,he shouldn't be driving then.most of that stuff has warnings about operarting machinery,driving etc. go figure

You do not understand BUSINESS
Gordon = Fans in seats, money in NASCAR pocket
Mayfield= Well that is a good question.
Since Toyota has its stars now anybody else's is in deep DO DO!!!
Remember back when the drugs hit the local guys from Florida VERY HARD. Well Nastycar does not want that to happen again in their backyard.
If Nastycar got into drug problems their TV $$$ would go away.
