ALL HAIL THE NEW LEADER!!!

Ymo, with a MONSTER victory this week (360 FREAKIN' POINTS), has now bolted into the lead in fantasy league. He beat 2nd place KNIGHTS this week by 50 points... he was 60 pts ahead of me. Iowa is fading a little in 3rd, with colchar now closing on Iowa.

Miles is now neck and neck with JGo... who I believe did not change his picks from the previous week (Terry Labonte, a NON ENTRY, was the C list pick two weeks in a row). Tilly is closing on Miles and JGo. Knights, with his 2nd place finish this week, is beginning to catch up with this group.

One AMAZING statistic to keep in mind: Ymo has only ONE more start left with Biffle!!

Next week: THE MONSTER MILE!! Dover!!

This week I tried the Joey Frickin' Logano train, if that helps. ;)

You and me both. Had I started him I would have had him in 1st and Biff in 4th as my B-list drivers.

And if I had chosen Biff instead of Joey Frickin' Logano, I'd still have the lead. :D
Admittedly, the prospect of using up quickly my Biffle starts frightened me into picking Joey Frickin' Logano.
I KNEW I should have started BLECH instead of JJ! :D

I had my hopes up when I saw this story about Jimmie Johnson racing a Madagascar-themed paint scheme on the 48 car this weekend at Dover.
