Kurt Busch to be Released by Penske

  While it was the actions, and resulting consequences, of Kyle Busch that dominated much of the negative news surrounding the end of the NASCAR season, it seems older brother Kurt Busch's behavior following his early exit from the Homestead-Miami race has cost him his job.
  Several sources are reporting that Penske Racing has decided to release Kurt Busch effective immediately.
  Busch was caught on camera making an obscene gesture toward a NASCAR official, and then cursing ESPN reporter Dr. Jerry Punch because the network was making him wait to be interviewed.
  One has to wonder, what went wrong with the upbringing of these two men that they act this way.
  Also, who will benefit from this by taking over a car that was part of The Chase. Penske could choose to move Sam Hornish up to Sprint Cup, as he was scheduled to run in the Nationwide Series in 2012. He could also hire drivers like Brian Vickers or David Ragan who both are currently unemployed.
  As for Kurt Busch, maybe brother Kyle could give him a ride with KBM. How long would that last?
