I think you got the lucky dawg pass!
Our guests from South Dakota have arrived so enjoy the race without me...
You got that right!!!
I’m watching MLB Network now. They’re showing the ‘97 World Series highlight video, when the Marlins beat the Indians in 7 games.
I still lose some sleep over the way that 7th game ended......
Hey all, I pinged everyone to the Pepsi pickem game with great prizes. Sort of like the Yahoo league and no one has joined. Post 1442 Be there or be square. :P
So what happened to Kyle Busch on the final lap of Friday night’s NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race on Friday night?
Here is what Kyle just said in the Daytona media center, via Andrea Adelson:
“I guess I screwed up once again. I can’t time it right. I thought I had an idea about it but again screwed up.
“The plan was to knock Todd out of the way. It didn’t work though all it did was shoot him further ahead. I just sat there and was gathering my stuff up and was trying to figure out the plan for the front straightaway. It just didn’t work out. I’m frustrated at myself for not figuring this out yet. “
Todd Bodine won the race, becoming the first two-time Truck Series winner at Daytona.
