I know I was VERY supersticious about my #7 when I played...I even paid one of my teammates $200 to give me the number when I played football at college.
#3- Lil E has a lot of connections and friends, I would expect him to go where the money is at. I know him and Stewart are friends, but that will only go so far. There is still a slight possibility that he will return to Earnhardt inc.

Ummm huh?
1) Gibbs runs Chevys
2) #8 belongs to DEI. He can't drive it for anyone but them unless DEI makes a trade or something. I have no idea why he is any less likely to dirve #8 for Gibbs than anyone else.
3) Well Gibbs is one of the best financed teams on the circuit. And by any measure if he wanted the money he'd stay at DEI. That is where the money is. This isn't about money and everything he has done adn said has shown that. This is about winning a championship. He isn't going back to DEI.
