ashley britney courtney dictator i didn't know that he and his wife have lived apart for the last 7 years. he'd definitely be hard to live with.
I wouldnt say that, its obvious that hes very driven, and just wants the best for his family, hes been on the road racing for so long trying to dominate ,its something new for him to try and reconnect with his family. he admits to sacrificing the early years with his kids while racing, at least now that hes sucessful he knows enough to try and regain part of what he missed out on.
I didn't see it but everything I ever read about him said he's one of the most approachable guys in the sport.
I've met John Force a few times, and he was always really nice, he even helped my wife into his trailer when she was pregant, another time we met he even remembered my name (no ****, all the guys that were with me freaked out) I watched the show, and like all those shows they add drama, if I wanted that much drama I'd watch that Hulk Hogan show or Dog the Hairdoo Hunter.
Is that your first impression or do you know him personnaly? To many times in "REAL LIFE", we judge before knowing all the facts. When someone starts from scratch and busts his butt to accomplish certain goals, they sometimes have little time for slackers and have less time for families and such. The show was one of the best real life bio's I have seen in a long time. Can't wait to see more of them, Mr. Force is not perfect but he tells it like it is and is sincerely trying to change things for his family and their future. God Bless John Force and lets all hope he accomplish's what he is trying to do. I think he will. Raising a family is the hardest task on earth, maybe that is why lots of folks stay single cause they can't or don't want the responsibility, of it. JMO
You will NEVER be able to regain the important things like the childs trust and unconditional love. Those are the most important things, in my opinion, that you must have with your children. I think someone who neglects their children for their own personal gains should step back and take a serious look at what they are doing, not only to themselves, but the people around them. Money is just money. It comes and goes. A childs love and respect for their parent(s) is forever. (Just ask my ex, she betrayed my childrens trust and tested their love for her too many times in negative ways. She will always regret that. At least I hope she will see what she has done and try to make amends.) FAMILY FIRST AND FOREMOST. <----- Thats me and my family right there. One of them is a girl. I haven't seen anything but advertisements for the show yet, but I am going to try to watch if my schedule permits.
i give him credit for trying to change and also for realizing what he has missed out on. but he has been so focused on his racing and being the champ that he has missed out on so much. he has built an empire and the only way he knows how to run it is by being the dictator. hopefully he'll learn another way. and yes at the track he's one of the nicest guys. actually he's just one of the guys out there. that's why he's so well liked by all the fans, including me.
I'm not saying that whatever happened with him was right or wrong, by my statement, I was just saying that he knows the reality of how things have turned out(every other moment in the evenings he was watching old home movies of his kids growing up) and wants to have that family time ,and get to know his kids before its too late (kids getting older, moving,death, who knows). and yes family ought to come first,....but how many times does someone get wrapped up in life, business or what have you and miss out on things? it happens,..and not just by famous people.
heck even the lowest jobs on the ladder and all the ones in between, companies tell you up front that they respect your family time but dont seem to have any problem asking you to work graveyard on christmas eve and christmas. so they can squeeze out two more dimes to give to the CEO in a bonus check. <= disillusioned and burned by our system. sorry if thats too close to politics.
I think you can still get love, respect, and trust from a distant relationship, but what he cant get is the millions of memories you get by being a part of that growing experience. Those are the best part of live and can only be experienced. But then, you cant miss what you never had. He will never know those feelings of endless kisses and unconditional love that only comes from a child. I wouldn't have missed it for the world and fondly flash back to them quite often. It's his loss but its what he chose.
I am not hating the guy for it or anyone else who likes him, heck I like him too. Even though sometimes it may appear he is an arrogant individual on T/V. does NOT mean that he is that way for real. The man is definitely a DOMINATOR when it comes to his sport. Cool beans. AMEN AMEN AMEN AMEN
