Click on the video to see the press conference of Dale Earnhardt Jr. announcing he is signing with Hendrick Motorsports for 2008.
It's official. Dale Earnhardt Jr. will be racing for Hendrick Motorsports in 2008. The equivalent of Alex Rodriguez signing with the New York Yankees, Dale Earnhardt Jr will join Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon, two of the biggest names in NASCAR. Hendrick Motorsports has become the Yankees of NASCAR with the edition of Earnhardt Jr. Earnhardt Jr wants to win, and he is going to the best team that can help him accomplish that goal.
Just because Dale Earnhardt Jr. is driving for Hendrick Motorsports in 2008 doesn't mean that Jeff Gordon and Dale Earnhardt Jr fans will all of a sudden want to be around each other and start liking each other's opposing driver. That's not going to happen at all.

Click on the video below to see another big wreck the day later involving Kyle Busch.
With the addition of Dale Earnhardt Jr, Kyle Busch is the odd man out at Hendrick Motorsports. Kyle will be a Free Agent at the end of this season, and there are rumors of Kyle Busch replacing Dale Earnhardt Jr in the number eight Chevrolet. So, you would have Kyle Busch driving for Budweiser, and his older brother Kurt would drive for Miller Lite. This is all in theory right now.
It's about business. That's why Dale Earnhardt is driving for Hendrick Motorsports in 2008 and Kyle Busch is not.
