NASCAR cheating scandal goes mainstream


Having tired of the circus surrounding the death of Anna Nicole, the mainstream media has turned its attention to the cheating scandal at Daytona Int'l Speedway.

Prior to a few days ago, it would have been pretty good being Michael Waltrip.

NASCAR star.... team owner.... hooked in with Toyota... money out the wazoo.... TV star.... Buffy (say no more!) .... etc.

Now.... not so much.

The negative treatment Mikey is receiving might finally take the incentive out of cheating.

NASCAR's fines, suspensions and double-secret probations didn't do it.... but this might.

No one likes to be associated with a cheater. After this incident, would anyone risk having their sponsors and partners look at them the way that Toyota and the media are looking at Michael Waltrip right now?

It's just not worth it.
