I think thats a 2 way street Eric. I'm not saying WJ wouldnt have been as competitive without GA but he was better off with him there for sure. GA wanted to drive and WJ couldnt provide that. I think its bad that WJ cant acknowledge GA's achievements. I havent once heard him say anything about GA that is positive and GA will be the first one to tell you that without WJ he wouldnt be where he is today.

Re: Force wins again `

I have been told by a few people the deal with people not really liking GA is that he has a better than you kinda attitude. He is a truely nice guy, extremely nice, fan friendly, but he has on more than one occasion come off with alittle im better than the rest of these guys attitude. Force on the other hand is always kissing people and just has a clown around attitude that people love, hes funny, GA isnt funny, he takes his job seriously, so does Force, but when Force is in front of the cameras hes a showman, and I think thats what draws people more to Force than to GA, just what I think, not like it counts for anything, lol

I don't know WJ or GA, but you have to wonder what things would be like if GA drove for WJ. WJ claims he would rather work on them than drive them, but can't seem to get out of the seat. Not knocking WJ, I would assume like Glidden (not knocking him either), he would not be the easiest person to drive for.

RE the fact that WJ won't acknowledge GA in a positive way, it may be because WJ is old school. In the early-mid 1970s, there was a comment that Garlits hated Gary Beck. The answer was; Garlits didn't really hate Beck, but if he had to hate you to beat you, so be it. Competition is not always friendly.

GA spent a couple of years positive about his experience with WJ. While KJ and GA remained friends, WJ carried resentment and was comfortable expressing it. I remember GA, after becoming weary of it, being quoted as saying, "Why do I continue to say nice things about a guy who has nothing nice to say about me?"

This is the second time you have stated something as fact without backing it up.

So when did Anderson "talk smack" about Johnson? You also stated in a previous post that Anderson was "a cheater".

So back it up. When specifically did Anderson talk smack and how is he a cheater?
