I went through all their posts and found [this.](http://groups.msn.com/FansAgainstGordon/general.msnw?action=get_message&mview=0&ID_Message=858&LastModified=4675446519317904996) It appears that they definitely know that they are “F.A.G.s” and I was glad to see that one of them pointed out they were not a homosexual community. I think \*\* Mr. Blue Sky \*\* second reply is the most accurate version. ---

Upon more internet searching, I have “discovered” that there are numerous anti-Gordon groups and organizations. Only this particular one are F. A. G. Others include: Fans Against Jeff Gordon (FAJG) United Against Gordon (UAG) NASCAR Fans Against Jeff Gordon (NFAJG) there are more I had been under the impression that F.A.G. was the official anti-Gordon group. This does not appear to be the case. So, apparently only the F.A.G. group is ironically challenged. So to be clear, I guess, not all Gordon haters are F.A.G.s, just the F.A.G.s are. ---

The actual post and response is as follows: “im so happy to be a part of FAG, everyone’s been really nice to me. im happy that FAG has come a long way int he past year and hope that u guys will let me be a member for years to come.” “Welcome FAG! We hope you have a good time here. Post often and be ready of the feed back. We dont always agree with each other. So there is no confusion, this is a racing communittee made up of members who think Jeffiepoo Gordum is a jerk. This is NOT a homo site. Express your opinions as you like, and have fun. Chuck” ::shakes head:: You just can’t make this stuff up. ---

When all is said and done, I think it’s safe to say that the concept of “irony” is lost on your averge NASCAR fan… mulletts kinda’ block out anything that is even slightly nuanced. -Richard ---

On the same inexplicable car sticker front … We’ve all seen the “Calvin peeing on various things” stickers. Calvin Peeing on Dale Gordon’s # 3. Calvin Peeing on the Chevy symbol. Calvin peeing on the Ford symbol. Well, I recently saw, on a Chevy, a sticker of Calvin peeing on ANOTHER Calvin who was peeing on the Chevy symbol. So the moral is: Two wrongs do make a right, even if your car is being peed on ---

Anyway regarding the OP; Jimmy Johnson and Gordon are teammates. Johnson’s number is 48. Gordon’s is 24. Is it any coincidence that 24 goes into 48 twice? Or that Gordon goes into Johnson twice? I think not. ---

Well, it could be worse. You could be sporting a bumper sticker that proclaims: “I love Dick Trickle” [http://www.dicktricklefanclub.com/](http://www.dicktricklefanclub.com/) ---

Calling Gordon a fag is Petty. Or, if you are a Fan Against Gordon – a fag – then you could use a Johnson to route for. Getting caught with Dick Trickle would be the pits, but if you are a FAG, you might consider that a GoodYear. Don’t forget the oil and some new rubber. ---

Your obsession with anal rape clearly show you do not now the least thing about nascar fans. (p.S.
