I can't see the complaining regarding the picture. I'm damn sure take a lot of 'em if I were lucky enough to win Indy. Kids, family, etc. everyone in!

I want JG to win Indy so we could get a picture of him with the trophy, his wife and the birds!

Sounds like JG is as "D-Whipped" as poor dario lol! And to you others, if you think old Ashley is great lookin you've been spending way too much time watching the Lifetime network. A few years ago a state trooper busted the two of them for speeding. The trooper was quoted as saying something to the effect "I didn't recognize her, she didn't appear the same way she normally does without all her makeup." Ouch!

Ashley Judd is a pretty far out lefty who uses her fame to spout off about every little silly cause she can dream up so don't expect everyone to take her seriously when she works hard to alienate half of the general public. I don't really care about anyone's political views on a track, when they themselves are racing, certainly Paul Newman comes to mind. But he was a racer and gave millions to charity so for him, God Bless.

I'm old school and I make no apologies. If you can't sense that the Ashley Judd angle is played up way too much, then you don't really have a clue. If you don't see the silliness of posing with your honey bunny at the Indy finish line then I can't help you either... If you have no sense and your letting wifey take the dogs all over the track ala Marge Schott style, then you are definitely beyond help. Does Ashley pick up the poop or does someone else? Just wondering.

I had to look up Ashley Judd on IMDB. The ONLY thing I knew was she started out in 2 episodes of TNG, as the ensign with the list of rules that Wesley Crusher kind of hooked up with.

You've never seen Double Jeopardy or Heat? You have led a sad life.

She's on some new show, I see ads for it. I think it's called "Angry Mom Who's Face Is Swelling Up From A Bee Sting." Don't get me wrong, good looking girl, but something was up in those clips.

Well said JG.

The brother of a friend of mine knows Ashley and is adamant about how genuine and nice she is.

Haven't watched an Indy race in years. No idea who the woman in the pic is, but she sure is hot. I'd want her in all my pics too!

Heat is one of the best movies ever. Seriously, you are missing out.

Vincent Hanna: So, what do you got for me?
Richard Torena: Before we even get into that, there's something we gotta get straight. There's a garage over off Sunset and Fig'. Now if someone were to pay it a visit tonight, they might find a pair of Turbos and a 911 Slope.
Vincent Hanna: You're looking to rid yourself of your competition.
Richard Torena: Well lemme put it another way, cousin. How do I know, that when I tell you what you wanna know, that you're gonna do what I need berkeleying done?
Albert Torena: Richard, look! Vincent's cool man! He and I have dealings all the time, brother!
Vincent Hanna: [puts his arm around Richard's shoulders] I ain't your cousin you rat motherberkeleyer. And you know, because I say you know!

This thread is a PR trap. Dario, Ashley Judd, Target, and Indy all thank you for the free exposure.

it might get some of her fanbase to watch a race or two.. it's doubtful, but it could happen.. i have no problem with a wife being in pics, regardless of who she is- but the dogs? seriously? kids i could understand.. but dogs? and they're not even real dogs.. a couple of 100+ pound German Sherpherds could make even the new Indycars look badass if they were posed right, but those- ?dogs?- make it look like an RC car or something..

To some of us, our dogs are our kids. Literally. So sorry if we aren't living your form of a perfect lifestyle, but they are just as important to us as kids are to others.

Only a person so closed minded could make that one.

And if you don't have the sense to realize that racing is a business, and having a driver who's married to a famous actress will generate attention, then I can't help you. It's all about eyeballs for the sponsors, and having Ashley at his side draws more eyeballs for Dario.

And honestly, who cares? Hey, look, it's Dan Wheldon posing with his wife and kids and the trophy!

In reply to Bobzilla:

No, your comment was ridiculous because you can't possibly know that your dogs are as important to you as my kids are to me. I have both, and as much as I love my dogs, they are insignificant in comparison to my kids. Because you don't have kids, you can't possibly make any comparison of dogs and kids. It was a ridiculous statement, and if you think it wasn't, then you are the one with the closed mind, my friend.
