I don't know whether to be Offended or Giggle

I don't know whether the following racing items make me laugh, cry or if I'm offended by them...

1.  During the Darlington race tonight, Chris Myers commented that Brian Vickers looked like Representative Kennedy driving when he crashed into the barrier.  

2.   Dale Jarrett, who has won over 30 races and 1 championship driving a Ford and who's Dad won in a Ford, has defected to Toyota.  Darrell Waltrip commented that Jarrett would now be driving a Ford Furious, to reflect Ford Motor Co's feelings on this issue.

3.  Michael Waltrip is going to be in charge of the Toyota charge into Nextel Cup racing.  Waltrip has 3 Cup wins (all on restrictor tracks) and no championships, while Jarrett, Waltrip's new employee, has 32 career wins and one championship. 

4.  Tony Stewart complained that his car wouldn't turn in a 10 acre field. 

5.  Dale Earnhardt Jr. reportedly didn't feel well.  Shouldn't all that Bud or Crown Royal he presumably had after his win last week prevented this?

6.  Kevin Harvick had radiator problems after a fist sized chuck of asphalt hit the front of his car.  The rock lodged in the radiator screen until it was removed.  It was never discovered where this chuck came up from the track...
