Well, I can see I'm done purchasing Mars products for a while...

NASCAR fined Kyle Busch $50,000 and put him back on probation today for the remaining races of 2011.

We can only hope Joe Gibbs has the sense not to let him in the car, or there WILL be a wreck.

But after this comment from Mars, Inc., sponsors of Kyle's car:

Link"The recent actions demonstrated by Kyle Busch are not consistent with the values of Mars, Incorporated and we are very disappointed," the news release said. "We do not condone this behavior and expect those who represent our company and brands to abide by the same values our company stands for. We have expressed our strong concerns directly to Joe Gibbs Racing."

I have only this response:

"This isn't a question.

This is effectively a boycott.

Until your company fully dissociates itself with Kyle Busch, I'm not knowingly purchasing another product from you.

NASCAR appears completely unwilling to do anything reasonable to the man for the incidents he's done, and I'm sick of half-hearted promotional saves on the part of companies like yours.

GET RID OF THE GUY. PERIOD."
