    Perhaps he was presented with an opportunity to help celebrate someone else…being a part of honoring another person is a great experience. Let’s just let him be a human being.

    They couldn't have asked a better person than Dale, Jr. to do this! Especially since the Country Music Stars speak the same language Dale, JR. does! And the millions of people watching will know exactly what is going on and loving it! I bet the haters will tune in too since they always comment on Jr's articles! The ratings will definitely be up! What an honor for Dale, Jr. to be asked to do this!
