“My NASCAR Bad Boy Moment™ #2 of the 2007 NASCAR season goes to the Metal Messiah, Carl Edwards, for his ‘Hah! Gotcha’ fake punch to Matt Kenseth after the Subway 500 at Martinsville Speedway.

#2: Carl Edwards Kicks Sand In Matt Kenseth’s Face

He does back flips, he poses bare-chested on magazine covers, he can make little guys flinch. Is there NOTHING that Carl Edwards can’t do?

This little ‘caught live on tv’ episode reminds me of the classic ‘kick sand in your face’ ad in the old comic books. I mean what is the match up here? I ought to be glad and see this as a return to the rough and tumble days of NASCAR yore. Glad that a driver is able to vent his anger and go face to face with another guy. But, really all this did for me was make me think that Carl Edwards is a type-A, over-aggressive jerk.
