the term "useing someone up" is usually taken to mean that someone got crashed. it also can be used when a driver crashes his own car and "uses up" his own stuff. either way i have never heard it used to describe someone just getting blocked or cut off. when something is "used up" it means it is no good any more, it is junk.

Every race I've attended with Donny in the field he seems to get booed louder then he's cheered. I've heard him comment after a win once saying, "I think I even heard some cheers." That said, I believe even Donny wouldn't want some of these guys defending him here to be considered as part of his fan base.

Really? Of all the races I've attended the only one that has gotten booed more than cheering is Swindell. This goes back before Donny was even in a sprint. I realize that we are all watching in different parts of the country, so that has alot to do with that. Me, all upper midwest and as far east as Ohio. As the saying goes, if there not cherring but booing, main thing is that their making noise. Love em or hate em, same thing!!!

Donny, during a couple of post race interviews, used the term a couple of times referring to the on track antics by Jason Meyers.

i.e. "He(Jason) used me up pretty good again tonight" referring to being chopped blocked or not raced clean.

So that's it.

You are out of line bringing Jeff Shepard's wreck into your pissing match with Wingnut. Everyone has their opinion about Schatz and Meyers and you are right Wingnut probably wouldn't say those things to Meyers face just as I doubt you would walk up to Schatz and call him Schitz. It really doesn't matter but Jeff Shepards wreck has NOTHING to do with the bullshit between Meyers and Schatz so leave him out of it.

Well spoken. One thing to talk shit about someone. But to bring up a severe injury for any reason other than to support that person is uncalled for. Yeah I wouldn't say that to Meyers or anyone as I trully do have nothing but respect and admiration for all these racers!! You made a great point, I for one will not talk shit about a racer again.

bottom line here is donny complains about anyone who doesnt just get out of his way...donny and meyers are in a points battle...do you just expect meyers to just give up the spot?? these guys are professionals and should drive like them and be patient and find a clean way around...obviosly donny and jason have had pissing matches and it all pretty much started at husets...after the race was over donny was running meyers over and hittin him and everything...donny was booed louder than tmac ever was at husets....point is...donny punted him and gained a 36 point extra advantage after lastnight all because donny has ran like shit lately and needed to take it out on someone...or just ran worse than meyers...donny has ZERO respect from me...and im not afraid to admit it but im not gonna take personal shots at him by calling him a fag or anything...i dont stoop that low...i just state facts and observations...

Nobody expects either of these two guys to back down. Stooping low goes for any name calling, not just mine, which I have already apologized for. Your facts and obsevations, remember that those are only your opinions. Some have said there was no contact - people from the race, so what do you believe?

The whole incident has to do with Meyers catching Schatz in points.. They have been running together all season Donny has had his fair chances to get him but now he realizes the only way he is going to beat Jason is to do what he did last night.. I also have Zero respect for Donny Schatz no matter what happens.. It seems to me that two racers going for the championship would want to race each other clean and put on the best show they can for the fans and settle it out that way not by a cheap shot stuff into the fence because Meyers is catching you.. and whoever said Meyers is cheating must be a schatz fan which really have no room to talk as im sure you remember the Kings Royal when Schatz was given three laps to qualify, if thats not cheating im not really sure what is.. All in all just another great move by Donny and I really hope the same is dealt back to him and Meyers can win the title..

Jason Meyers and Kerry Madsen were the drivers that got tangled up at River Cities. Just thought I clear Craig of any wrong-doing.

and ladies and gentlemen i think the WOO have their new Kinser/Swindell rivalry. i'm going to TRY to keep my dog out of this fight just because. i just want to ask one thing..........

how do you explain "the King:" beating the snot out of people for years and not Chopping people off or Using them up. IT CAN BE DONE!!!!!!!!!!!. if you can't do it don't complain when you get taken out or QUIT!

Cheers!

I meant no disrespect for the Shepard comment. I feel horrible for him and his family, but I am very glad to read of how well his progress is going. My point was that what happened to him did not have to happen and you can not call everything a racing deal. Like I said I go to see good quality racing not chicken shit moves and certainly not to see any driver crash and get hurt to any degree. I will also agree that Chico will be tough and racey. I would not try Donny's move from last nite on any of the Kaedings or it may not go too well.

Wasn't putting any blame to Craig. Just thought that's who it was. I know Dollansky and Kinser got together at I96. Must be what I was thinking.

Just let it go. Were you actually there? I can honestly say that the racing in my opinion is pretty clean considering what these guys are up against - especially this year with the low gas prices and overall cost of traveling down the lonely ol' highway to each track. Chopping, it means your not the faster car at that moment, sure hold your line, but sooner or later, that car running behind you may not be able to brake in time. I'm talking about a true lack of time to brake - this is known as one of those racin' things. I'm sure it's happened to every single one of them out there and I'm sure every single one of them has also done that to someone.

You are correct. It was Minot where Craig took Madsen out, not G.F.

go sit in a drivers seat and see how much you see.not very much ...

so tough guy...you're a fag basher?

i think brad paisley wrote a song about you:

I work down at the Pizza Pit
And I drive an old Hyundai
I still live with my mom and dad
I'm 5 foot 3 and overweight
I'm a scifi fanatic
A mild asthmatic
And I've never been to second base
But there's whole ‘nother me
That you need to see
Go checkout MySpace

'Cause online I'm out in Hollywood
I'm 6 foot 5 and I look damn good
I drive a Maserati
I'm a black-belt in karate
And I love a good glass of wine
It turns girls on that I’m mysterious
I tell them I don't want nothing serious
'Cause even on a slow day
I could have a three way
Chat with two women at one time
I’m so much cooler online
So much cooler online

Jeez dude, I already took back my comments. What else do you want me to do? I made a comment trying to get under someone's skin. It trully wasn't meant to be taken seriously. But as usual, some of you can't see shit past anything else and just see it your way because it makes you feel better!! I really am 6'5" and 265 though!!! The rest of your post is not me at all. I'm just an average dude that has an average life. That's all!!!
