i think that destroying an athletes almost 25 year long career gives the usage of that word too much power

i mean, it's horrible. make him pay a fine, let him have a hard time finding work, let his sponsors pull him, but dont outright ban him.

i mean, the "free market" would have probably decreed his career over on its own.

but what do i know

Said by people who think driving at 200mph all day long isn't an endurance test that requires physical strength and I don't even watch NASCAR.

Kyle was actually one of the very few ethnic drivers on the track, being half Japanese.
(so they got rid of the only Asian driver, lol)

Juan Pablo Montoya was my favorite driver while he was active, and he is Mexican.

but saying "all Nascar drivers are racist" is, in itself, a narrow minded and ignorant stereotype, which just isn't true, but absolutely proves YOU are a hypocrite

How is a generalisation proving hypocrisy? also NASCAR is redneck racing and we all accept the generalisation of redneck hicks being racist, homophobic and just generally bigoted, so inherently NASCAR is bigots on wheels.

Those aren't done for entertainment purposes, like sports are, and racecar drivers have to train like professional sportsmen.
