David Reutimann Throws Remote Control at TV Set



Shortly after Brian Vickers drove his Aaron's "Dream Machine" to a win at New Hampshire, former driver David Reutimann reacted by throwing his remote control at his television.
"Oh come on, ANYBODY could've won that race!", Reutimann said to nobody in particular in his basement rumpus room.  "It took 'em YEARS to get another win in that car, I'd have made the Chase with a BUNCH of wins by now!"
That TV had 1 day left till retirement
Reutimann, who has been running part-time in the Truck Series this season, continued to rant at his 19 inch Zenith with a newly-cracked screen.
"Oh come on, look at them try to get that dumb stuffed dog on the roof", Reutimann said, commenting on the victory lane celebrations.  "When I won, there were NO problems in victory lane.  NONE!  I lived through the sports-drink battles in victory lane!  I got the battle scars to prove it!"
Reutimann, after being fired by Michael Waltrip Racing in 2010, ran last season for the underfunded TBR race car.  Since then he has spent most of his free time calling various Aaron's stores and asking if their refrigerators are running.
"I made that Aaron's car what it is!", Reutimann sobbed as he fell to his knees.  "I should've been in that victory lane!  Me!  ME!!!"
When last checked, Reutimann's family was said to be consoling him by pointing out that he can grow a better beard than Kyle Busch.
