Give us all a break with that stupid nonsense, will you please. Not one fan can throw as good as the worst NFL quarterback or MLB pitcher. Does that mean they can't comment on their performance either? What about the PGA? Is that off limits to player comments from fans, unless they happen to have a 2 handicap or better? These people are getting paid millions to do something better than others in their field can do. That isn't the case with Danica, and you know it. And it never has been. At least not regarding her performance. She wasn't rated one of the 5 most overrated athletes because she is so wonderful. There are drivers out there with lesser equipment, and much less experience, who consistently run better and faster than she ever could on her best day. And when they do have a lousy day, they don't run around whining about it, and blame others.
Look at Eric Jones or Kyle Larson. Jones just came on the scene in Cup racing. Look how well he's doing. His equipment is nowhere near the quality of hers. He is paid nowhere near what she is. The fact is he's a far better driver on his worst day, than she could ever hope to be on her best. It's much the same deal with Larson. Spare us all this foolish nonsense about, "what the fans can do". Look at what her competitors are doing, and what she ISN'T. In case you've forgotten because she never does it....... It's called WINNING.
