Both Dale Earnhardts are vastly overrated, and people just stop talking bad about Sr. because he died. I don't know about anyone else, but all I hear is that "Dale Earnhardt Sr. was the best driver ever," and that total bullshit. Richard Petty has 200 wins and 7 championships, Jeff Gordon has 79 (I think) wins and 4 championships. I know that Sr. had 76 wins and 7 championships, but he did that in nearly twice the time that Gordon has been racing. Jr. really has to step up now, and I bet he has a great next season.
