That ended less than optimally

Official order is:
Jr (led most laps), Hamlin, Kes, Gordon, JJ, Kenseth, Stenhouse, Biffle, Dillon, Mears
11 Logano
14 Jamie Mac
33 Bayne
35 Stewart
40 Patrick
41 Waltrip
42 Bowyer
43 Truex

Looks like Miles gets a win to start off the year.

I didn't get to watch the race this year, but I am still pleased to open the season with a win!

Where is colchar? If only I hadn't left Jr and Dillon on the bench.

Need coffee... I posted this originally in the Olympic thread.

So Kes wins the pole, gives me 10 pts for a qualifying bonus, but he appears to start 20th on my Yahoo Fantasy roster. JJ gives me 1 pt for qualifying, but starts 14th (according to the Yahoo Fantasy roster). And I guess, according to the Yahoo Fantasy roster, I have Jr starting in 6th.

VERY confused!

I didn't do very well with my picks in today's race...

Congrats to colchar, beating me to the checkered flag for a fantasy league win last week at Phoenix.

I am now a mere handful of points away from the league leader, Miles.

This week... VEGAS!!!

Joey Freakin' Logano has the pole today. Team Penske is cleaning up in qualifications.

Yikes, with a bit of effort I could slip silently into LAST place next week! My mind just hasn't been on NASCAR! There should be a law they can't start racing until after the Final Four! That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!

Rain delay today... I wonder if they'll race at all today.

Lots of toilet paper all over the place.

Logano DID make it on the track on the lead lap.

Another dismal performance by my selections...
