I was listening to Dave Moody on Sirius today and he suggested that not supporting ALL NASCAR sponsors might be a mistake. He has a point. How many sponors have moved from one team to another? Budweiser is a good example...moved from the 8 over to RCR. If we hated Harvick, would we not buy Bud even though they supported Dale, Jr. all those years? And, in fact, used to sponsor an HMS car many years ago? Busch has supported NASCAR in many ways throughout the years. M&Ms...our favorite no buy sponsor....used to sponsor Elliott Sadler and who knows where they will go next? Or, will they leave the sport because fans have stopped buying their productbecause of VK?
The point Moody made, and I think it is a good one, is that these sponsors are what makes our sport run. Without them, we do not have a sport. He believes, and I am beginning to be inclined to agree with him, that we should support all NASCAR sponsors. The discussion came up because Best Buy may be leaving RPM and their desperation reach to Kurt may be an attempt to get BB to stay with RPM. You KNOW that Roush is working hard to get BB to sponsor one of their cars...Kenseth, maybe?
