Bob Pockrass has a history of antagonizing drivers, Tony Stewart, called him a tabloid reporter or something like that, I don't think he gets the benefit of the doubt from many drivers
Could be why Bob Pockrass isn't heard from much anymore. He was fired from ESPN because his dumbass questions were being ignored. Several racing veterans refused to even talk to him.
It did seem like Bob was poking at Kurt Busch there. That wasn't a question to ask a guy that had a sour attitude at the time. Not excusing Kurt's poor behavior back then but don't poke the bear.
@Dakoda Fisher WOW, you are highly delusional. Arrogant anus Kryle Busch is not even close to being the best driver in NASCAR. He's 9th on the list. Dale Earnhardt Sr was the greatest race car driver in NASCAR history. IMHO, Kyle Larson is a way better driver than arrogant anus toddler temper Kryle Busch. Most disliked driver in NASCAR history and not just by the fans either.
There's just certain sensitive topics as a reporter that you shouldn't touch on with drivers especially when you know the driver had a bad day. I wish reporters and journalist would be more a little bit more considered and think before they ask things.
@@carloscrawford2454 you say that now until you yourself gets in a race car runs few hundred mile race in a 145 degree race car then gets out to only have to answer stupid and personal questions. It's not showing class it's called being fed up with the dumb bullshit.
Pockrass has a well known history of asking really stupid questions. I think that's putting it very favorably for Pockrass. And I actually kinda like him, I follow him on multiple soc med outlets. But damn sometimes it's like it's his first day at the track. F.F.S! Bob that's like the kinda shit Jenna Fryer says.
Kurt Busch is funny. I know a lot of people hate both Busch brothers, but honestly without them the sport would be more boring. This season the only storyline I've been caring about is where that 78 car is with Kurt in it. It will be unfortunate if he doesn't get a win before the season is over. I'd have liked to see him win in both the 51 car last year too.
Kurt is an animal in the car, let him drive. NASCAR is nothing without individuals like Kurt, Tony, and Kevin. They have personality, unlike the boring ones like Jimmie.
@@Arctic_Falcon still there though after many others have come and gone. Putting muzzles on drivers has killed the sport. How about banning the stupid reporter for two or three races for stupid questions?
Kurt is one of many reasons I do not Watch nascar or go to any nascar races ! I was a fan way back in the early 70s when I was a little kid . I’m 55 years old now . So with that said meny years ago !
@@StartsWithALetter First of all you little punk I do more in one day than you do all month I don’t need a nap it’s too boring to even watch all you young punks do is fight and argue you don’t know how to race so you don’t know what the hell you’re talking about moron
So you havent care about nascar in 40+ yrs but your commenting on a guy whos only been a cup driver for 20? If you dont care...why watch the video? why comment?
@@grungyflannel First of all I started being a fan in the 70s all the way up into the 90s until the early 2000s and personally I watch what I want and make comments about what I want that’s the way it is
Watching this after Kurt Busch wins at Kansas in the #45. It's interesting watching KPs opinion on Kurt about not giving respect but wanting it. Kurt has really changed since back then and has mellowed out. He is all for giving respect now. Was cool to see him show love to the Petty family. Back then between all of the controversy on and off the track I didn't like Kurt but he is a lot better as a person now. Shame that Kyle hasn't changed because Kyle still shows moments of immaturity. ..and yes, looking back at this particular moment Kurt was in the right and Bob was in the wrong.
even though I don't like Kurt bush he has a point reporters don't need to ask questions about that stuff especially after a long race so he has a point there but he does need punishment but not suspended its an off track deal take a points and money
i agree with kenny, kurt needs to punch somebody, and he should start with rusty wallace who always throws suddle low blows at him while calling the race, and kurts right, these guys are trying to start stuff,
Kurt Busch comes across as being a very nasty person. . .time and time again. I will continue to root for him, to come in last place with a DNF every time.
Stewart Hass should have never given him an opportunity to get back on a high profile team. He deserved to keep running in bad equipment and eventually loose his job.
Can anybody tell me did he live a double life as a MMA fighter or something? because he's a pipsqueak and you can get his ass kicked so easily. why does he talk tough?
lol he meant that ironically but u cant be like that because jornalists will take your words out of context. especially when u have a "bad boy" image like kurt.
Well Kyle Petty.Its the Sponsors mostly that have RUINED NASCAR. And maybe if you were a tenth of the driver Kurt is.....well maybe you would have won more than 8 Cup races compared to Kurt's 34 Cup wins.Just saying.
"It refrains me from not beating the s**t out of you right now because you ask me a stupid question...but, since I'm probation I suppose that's...uh...that's improper to say, as well..." Well, you JUST said to a reporter who was recording you, huh? Nice one, numbnuts. Admittedly, that was a stupid question. But the best part is that he immediately catches his stupidity. That's kinda like that scen in Ghost Protocol with the underwater flare and immediate discuss why that was a stupid scene.
I can't wait to see him mess up by either punching a reporter or punching a NASCAR official. Somebody's going to push him, eventually, you're going to have people push him just to prove he can't exercise self control. His career is already finished.
It's a fine line. They are good, yet they are bad for the sport. But after how many times Kurt has melted down and they still keep him??? His days are numbered!! No sponsor wants a loose cannon representing them. Don't be suprised if Monster Energy Drink says something to Kyle about Kurt driving their nationwide car that Kyle owns.
How funny would it have been if Danica bitch slapped one of those pinned up ears - Kurt would have looked like a bad mr Spock impression - hilarious - and NASCAR wonders why it's trajectory is in the shitter + it's because of those kinds of personalities

Nope it's because of stupid playoff/chase ideas, banning the rebel flag, bringing kids born with silver spoons into what use to be a grown mans sport. When Kurt and Jimmy Spencer had their row people loved it, when drivers show their emotions people pay attention. Dale Sr was the sports best salesman and we know what he was like, a complete ass at times but people responded by either loving or hating him. Either way it drew fans and Nascar understood that and catered to him for years.

Wow! Glad he didn’t get asked about his marriage 🤷🏽♂️
Kurt's response to the STUPID comment was completely justified. Great job Kurt!!!
Kurt was right here idc what anyone say’s!
Insert 2022 has same sponsor, and drives for a fellow driver probation must've worked very well. Still hasn't punched anyone on camera.
Bob was a complete jerk this time.
Typical Bob Pockrass. ESPN fired him because many veteran race car drivers would refuse to talk to him.
LOL KP. Ten tears later Kurt is the most sought after driver in the field.
Kurt matured but his crybaby bother didn't, and he likely never will.

Yeah, passion is not another word for asshole. If you don't want to answer a question then say "No comment."
This is the same stupid crap they always pulled on Tony Stewart, and they deserve every bit of humiliation they get for stupid questions.
There's just certain sensitive topics as a reporter that you shouldn't touch on with drivers especially when you know the driver had a bad day. I wish reporters and journalist would be more a little bit more considered and think before they ask things.
cry babies are gonna cry
These drivers make plenty of money that they should be able to answer tough questions when they are running bad and show some class!

you can tell the second that bob started asking the question kurt wasnt having any of it...bad blood? kurt busch is the man!!
Kurt Busch was the victim here
Ya'll mistake passion for being spoiled brats.
Kyle petty you have been in the sport for along time and you have did nothing
Kyle actually makes a good point...could care less about what he accomplished.
Kurt Busch is funny. I know a lot of people hate both Busch brothers, but honestly without them the sport would be more boring.

KP knows what he's talkin about.🤮.MONSTER did not care did they?
Kurt is an animal in the car, let him drive. NASCAR is nothing without individuals like Kurt, Tony, and Kevin. They have personality, unlike the boring ones like Jimmie.

You know Kurt Busch is getting parked for Sunday's Pocono race.

@@StartsWithALetter No. There are plenty of other reason why people aren't watching Asscar anymore so calm the fuck down.

3:12 LOL fans want him out of NASCAR.
3:12
There is 1 other thing stopping him from beating the journalist. Kurt Busch is spineless.
Kurt Busch is still racing and Kyle Petty is a joke
Still racing, still losing. Just wait till he joins Bubba Smollett at Jordan's team next year, that outta be a hoot!
Psychosis runs in the family.
Weather tech racing series has real GT cars, a great deal of passing and no manufactured drama.
Walked away from nascar years ago. Not going back.
why are the talking heads so needful of recycling this non sense?
Bravo brother
Have no fear.....it WILL happen!!!
Kurt busch will be Kurt busch if you don't like it that's to bad because he will cuss you out

Kurt been through a lot he's not good with the media. Give him a break
At least Pockrass has stayed to just reporting stuff of ESPNs site...
I like Kyle Petty but bad take, the reporters don't show the drivers any respect...Kenny is right.
Kurt and Kyle both should learn to call their shot's.
There's a reason why for a long time nobody like Pockrass
Kurt Busch comes across as being a very nasty person. . .time and time again. I will continue to root for him, to come in last place with a DNF every time.
And even more so for his sore loser brother!
Stewart Hass should have never given him an opportunity to get back on a high profile team. He deserved to keep running in bad equipment and eventually loose his job.
Agree 100%, but I assume Stewart probably thought this kind of attitude was cool. Takes one to know one I guess.

I just can't listen to the cry baby Media any more. I turn them off.
You know if you threaten to punch someone, they're the ones that get the worst of it. Kurt does not need to be in a race car, period.
Kurt Busch is a punk
If it does happen, you can say "I told you so." He's no use to NASCAR or to racing.
I can't wait to see him mess up by either punching a reporter or punching a NASCAR official. Somebody's going to push him, eventually, you're going to have people push him just to prove he can't exercise self control. His career is already finished.
10 years later and he's still here and competitive lol
I disagree, but that was still funny.
Just leave kurt..
