T.J. Patrick confirmed interest from several NASCAR and IRL teams and said it's natural that he would steer the options toward NASCAR if possible.
"They're a lot safer, we all know that," he said Tuesday. "I'd be a fool not to want her there and if you were her father you would, too.


"They should take care of their own," he said. "We all know she's probably the least paid driver in the league. That shouldn't happen."

Who is "They"?

This is yet another example of the greedy little wench and her greedy little parents trying to sqeeze out every last drop of income from her 15 minutes of fame.
