Create-a-caption: The Marbles/Hendrick press conference

By Jay Busbee

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a historic opportunity here, a chance to ask your favorite Hendrick drivers any question you like. (You may have to come up with the answers yourself, but we feel confident you can do just that.) Okay, first question? You there in the back ...?

(By the way, anybody else notice that almost all of our recent pictures have had drivers in street clothes, sitting in seats or holding microphones? Just a few more weeks, people ...)

After the jump, the drivers meet their fans. Lord'a mercy.

Hugsx5:
How do you keep a redneck in suspense? 

SportsFan:
Jeff: You're right, I don't have a clue what DuPont sells either, but they pay well.

Beer is my Anti Drug:
Jeff Gordon looks like the man just explained to him the theory of relativaty.
Junior's writing down the menu for Whiskey River on the visor of the helmet, cause ol' girl looks hungry.
Jimmy looks stunned as long lost cousin Burt just showed up to return the wedding gift Jimmie sent him.
Tony looks like he's ready to come across the table because the guy in the Alltel jacket just crop-dusted smoke on the way by.

Hugsx5, continued:
Alltel you later! hahahhahahahhahahah

Ouch. On that note ...

    LMFAO REDS wins
    Mr Hendricks who is older you or Mark?
    Johnny have they completely redone your programming or just your facial hair?
    Jeffy did you know when you hold the microphone like that REDS24, has to launder all the towels in her house?
    So Jr. Are you glad you bailed out of the train wreck that the Wicked Witch of the Carolina's had made of your Daddy's business?

    Rick: All right, Ladies and Gentlemen, these are the stages of growing a beard; bare face, 5 o'clock shadow, light scruff, heavy scruff. We're currently searching for the fan from the JJ photo to complete our ensemble.

    Mr. H: Are latest developments here at HMS are, old school tech getting a new lease on winning, Jim Bot 2009 will sport a little more hair, and a rougher image, but have the same bushy eye brows and lack of personality.
    We also bring back Jeff Bot 2009, but this time we hope we got the virus out of the win routine. Because last year we could not get it out of the programming no mater what we tried. (Latarte sub-routine is still loaded, but its been given notice things must change for it to be kept around.) And last we still have the over hype of NASCAR with us may he at least win one race in 2009 to keep the image of HMS.
    Jr. thinking to self ( He most be talking about Mark, or Jeff on that comment, it can't be me. )

    Mark Martin, smiling because he drank a lot of Pepsi products that Hendricks is pushing, knows now that if he pisses his pants, no one will know because he is wearing black pants. It makes him happy.
