Did you all see what he wrote on si.com yesterday? The entire piece was wrong other than that Robby had 3 lawsuits going on.

 

Check it out:

 

Speaking of NASCAR losing drivers to the IndyCar ranks, Robby Gordon appears on his way out of town. Right now, he's fighting three lawsuits: one versus former sponsor Extenze for non-payment, a second versus BAM Racing for breach of contract and a third against Specialized Bicycles for copyright infringement over allegedly using their logo for his SPEED Energy Drink. None of them appear to be resolved in the near future.

His Cup program has sponsorship for only a handful of races, and multiple sources say Gordon has grown weary of trying to fight a losing battle as a single-car, independent owner/driver on the circuit. Off-road sponsors like Monster Energy Drink are the only ones helping keep the No. 7 afloat right now, hungry for the additional exposure NASCAR's fan bases gives their product. Without them, Gordon's car would have already been auctioned off by now, and I don't expect to see him manning the driver's seat much beyond the first five races of 2011. In fact, should IndyCar continue its upward swing, there's a strong possibility the former open-wheel regular might move in that direction for 2012 and beyond.

Hilarious. The best part is when he talks about Monster Energy sponsoring his car and Speed energy sponsoring his car.  Also note that he says "none of the lawsuit will be resolved in the near future." Whoops! one already has!

I just sent an e-mail and told the MEAT HEAD what I thought of his article. Man, I guess ANYONE can write for SI....Brutal. This is a perfect example of why you can't always believe what you read.

He will probably reply to you. He replied to me and was ticked haha.

I don't see how he could be ticked at you Lance, his article is bad, bad bad. So maybe you just helped him and his job by keeping on course. Should be thanking you!!!

He should get all the espn and si writers who know nothing about NASCAR and go to the HOF at least there they could learn about the sport . Hell them reporting on NASCAR is equal to me reporting on how to do brain surgury ......... Oh wait maybe thats it !!!! Bowels had a lobotomoby before he wrote the article lmao

New nickname...Tom "Zombie" Bowles. haha

What would he learn about racing at NASCAR's million-dollar monument to itself? I can't wait until that place folds.

Tom just tweeted: What I've learned in the past 72 hours: @robbygordon has some passionate fans. Something we can all learn from. Plan to address on Tuesday.

Maybe he'll join the Planet,but will it help or hurt?! LOL

We can make a Difference!!!

The factual accuracy of Mr. Bowles snippet is equal to a blind archer with an inner ear infection.

LOL!..............That's some funny sh*t right there!
