Jimmie Johnson: Athlete Of The Year?

Or really poor and stupid?  

While I'm not a racing guy, I do think Jimmie Johnson deserves some recognition.  I'm not here to debate if Nascar drivers are athletes, or even really promote the sport.  I've always seen it as boring and wasteful, but to each their own.  What I will say, is that being a national champion at anything for 5 years in a row takes some talent.  If some dude won the national "Gas Station Food Roller Attendent" 5 years in a row, I think we should recognize him.  So here's to you, Jimmie Johnson, when it comes to being poor and stupid, you're the best!
