If this is how you react on weeks when you win...colchar wrote:Looks like I am fucked this week. I usually make my picks on the Wednesday but this week I left them until Thursday and, apparently, am now too late to make them so I am stuck with the same drivers that I had last week.
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuckity, fuck, fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats!
Having said that, you pulled away from me by 36 pts. Having 3 drivers in the top 12 didn't hurt you.
That race was VERY weird last night. Lots of spin outs, including Jeff Burton late. He didn't lose a lap, but RCR seemed to run into all sorts of issues. Bowyer got tapped and became loose in traffic late, Harvick was mediocre (for him), and Burton hit some bad luck (as usual). Bowyer also got the worst of it when he sideswiped JJ coming out of the pits. Jeff Gordon raced well, but then came an endless series of bad things (battery/alternator issues, speeding penalty, etc...). Carl Edwards was a dud last night. And poor Kasey Kahne got into a crash, came to the pits, and couldn't continue (replaced by JJ Yeley). Kurt Busch got tagged early, and never could get back into the race. Smoke got tagged early, and was never a factor in the race (that and he had several weird pit incidents). JPM was his usual self.
Racers who were good: JamieMac, Blech (who admitted he LOST the race for his team), JJ, Hamlin, Logano, Kenseth, Truex, Reutimann. Otherwise, lots of mediocre and subpar performances.
The Chase is coming down to a two driver race, JJ and Hamlin. And frankly, Hamlin has been VERY consistent this Chase. It's the only reason JJ has yet to run away with it. Next week, we move on to Martinsville. THIS should be a major decider in the Chase championship. Hamlin may just do it this year!
