Geez, I wonder what Coach thinks of that...surely he could have kept his mouth shut for a few more days....
Anyway it's good news for Toyota |

Shrub should have kept his mouth shut. It is a sign of disrespect pre-empting the boss....but then, I would expect nothing else from him.

Yeah, got to say, it struck me as rather odd that Kyle is leaking this. Surely Gibbs will want to make the "big announcement" as it were?
Bizarre. However, that aside, this will be exciting to see how Gibbs and Toyota progress together. |

With Gibbs going to Toyota, the small team Hall of Fame racing that they supply equipment to will be going with them to Toyota. It also looks like they will get J.J. Yeley to drive for them next year.
