Thanks tubebender... wait for silly season :o0

Fantasy racing can exact a toll. Fortunately, I can just shift to one of my alternate personalities following qualifying, then another after the race. Sybil has nothing on me. Was she a team owner?

Hey, I'm a Tony Stewart AND Ward Burton fan. What more need I say?

You nailed it; it's all Kenseth's fault for daring to win the last Winston Cup championship over one of the Southern/Golden Boys™. Of course, had he won 5-6 races, especially late, they would've figured out something else (like making taking the pole worth 100 points).

Oh dear, you poor boy. You have waited too long to seek help. Let me help you make your future selections while you get some rest.

We're having Shrimp, Chicken and Beef Kabobs in a couple of hours and my wife just blurted out..."I WOULD RATHER DO 3 THANKSGIVING DINNERS THAN KABOOBS AGAIN"

I NEVER liked it from the first time I heard they were going to change it, even before they revealed what the changes would be.

I still say nextsmell has screwed up NASCAR, they need to get out IMO!

I see that graphic one last time because I shall be sick when I hear either Metallica's pro-terrorist chant OR Sammy Hagar's anti-authority shouting which would force my voice teacher to call them to the Oval Office.

Does this help??

Earnhardt Jr. radio spot supports Jeb Bush
By Marty Smith, Turner Sports Interactive November 5, 2002
4:25 PM EST (2125 GMT)

CONCORD, N.C. - Those who listened to the radio broadcasts from Atlanta and Rockingham during the past two weekends likely heard Dale Earnhardt, Jr. offer words of support for Florida Governor Jeb Bush in a short radio spot.

Bush, seeking re-election today in the Sunshine State, passed the Earnhardt Family Protection Act, which prevented the late Dale Earnhardt's autopsy photographs from becoming public record.

"Bush did a lot to help Dale and the Earnhardt family, and he did what's right," said Dale Earnhardt, Inc. spokesman Steve Crisp. "He made the right decision there and did what was decent in protection the family's honor and integrity. Junior felt like this was the least he could do."

The relationship between the Earnhardts and Bushs stems from a friendship between President George W. Bush, Jeb's brother, and Dale Earnhardt. And when President Bush visited Charlotte, N.C., last year, Junior joined Teresa Earnhardt and daughter Taylor at the airport in welcoming him.

"The gist of it all is there's a great relationship between the families," Crisp said. "So Junior felt like the radio deal was important."

Here's something else good that he did with Senator Mitch McConnell(R)

June 6, 2004

Band of brothers and sisters

Last Thursday night, McConnell and about 30 of his Senate colleagues had a special dinner at Washington's Walter Reed Army Hospital with soldiers who were wounded in Iraq.

At McConnell's table was a woman who operated a machine gun and a young man from the 101st Airborne Division who lost both his legs.

"It was quite an emotional evening," McConnell said. "They were all very patriotic, upbeat, looking to the future no matter how serious their wounds were."

Among others at the dinner were NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt Jr. and former NFL quarterback Boomer Esiason. Those were the guys who excited the soldiers, McConnell admitted.

"We knew they wouldn't be too turned on by a bunch of middle-aged senators," he said, laughing.

That helps, but it makes the recent incident even less understandable.

Sorry I missed you all for this race. Was out of town watching the Pirates beat up on Milwaukee. Now, back to a real sport.
