Thanks for putting that all together Steve, well said and done!!
I guess this year may turn out worse than last with all the musical seats by the drivers and the sponsors and the manufacturers in some cases not supporting the team.
Will your season preview include the drivers and new team info? When is the SB, the 5th? I should have the Shootout thread up on or about the 8th for the 11th race if you want to put it there. Whatever everyone else wants to do is fine.
'You're Junior!'
NASCAR's Dale Earnhardt Jr. visits Great Lakes
By Dan Moran
GREAT LAKES — Two guests joined a table of recruits for lunch Thursday in the mess hall of the USS Marvin Shields barracks.
One was easily identified by his nameplate and the single star on his collar: Rear Adm. Jeffrey L. Fowler, commander of the Navy Recruiting Command.
But as Fowler led the lunchtime small-talk, quizzing the surrounding recruits about their assignments, no one seemed to take special notice of the other visitor, a quiet, lanky man with rusty brown hair.
Finally, Fowler decided to test the waters. He looked across the table at recruit Jenilee Paige Sanders, who was seated next to the mild-mannered guest, and said, "Do you know who he is?"
"No," said Sanders, shaking her head as she turned to take a closer look.
"Really?" said the mystery guest — Dale Earnhardt Jr., son of an American motorsport icon and a reigning NASCAR superstar in his own right.
As laughter surrounded the table, Earnhardt beamed at Sanders, a smile that seemed to express relief at being seen as something other than a celebrity for a change.
