On ESPN this morning, they are referring to her as the "wicked step mother"...I think that's unfair. I don't really think name calling is ever fruitful, the point here is that Jr feels he isn't getting the support and resources necessary to remain competitive. There is talk that Theresa wants to work a deal with Ford, this may explain some things but it doesn't help Jr. At this point, I think Jr is making a wise decision...there is talk, by the way, that he may indeed head to Gibbs Racing.
