I'm not much better...

Miles squeaked by Iowa last night and won this week, Miles distanced himself from me, and now holds a 97 pt lead. I lead Iowa Devil by 65 points, who now leads Ymo by 30 points. Lawgrad is 253 points further back, and colchar is 46 pts further back from that.

Have your dartboards ready folks...

I'm going with a Ouija board.

That would probably be as accurate as a dart board!

Yep, only depends on whose spirit I'm able to get in touch with and whether or not they are a NASCAR fan.

There is a race going on right now.

A famous former racer passed today of an apparent suicide. He was probably more famous for his name...Dick Trickle.

RIP Richard Dick Trickle! Very sad.

In the movie Days of Thunder, The character Cole Trickle, (Tom Cruise); he has named for the veteran driver, Dick Trickle.

There's a 600 mile race on tonight. Let me summarize:
1) They had a 30 minute red flag: a camera support rope broke, damaging 7 or 8 cars (Blech included) and injuring 10 spectators (3 were sent to hospital, 7 were released).
2) Blech and Jr blew up their engines at the same lap (lap 300 or so of 400). Biffle lost it then as well when he slid in Jr's oil.
3) Kahne has led the most laps, with Kenseth doing well,.
4) 80 laps to go... Patrick got pinched between Kes and Stenhouse. Kes is knocked out. Patrick was damaged, but is still racing.
5) 75 laps to go, JG, AA, and MM just crashed bad. AA into the garage, JG out of the car, MM started it. Stenhouse had a little damage, as did Labonte. Red Flag.

KuBu is in the lead, but has lost power.
Nuts.

I wasted a JJ start.

A number of us did.
A number of folks wasted a Blech start as well.
Fortunately, no one wasted a Jr start.

ALthough colchar deserves congrats for winning last night's race in Fantasy League , he did so with only 244 points.
UGH!!
Shirley we can do better than that!

... and don't call me Shirley.
