Just for the record, Casey Mears beat MM this weekend. And it wasn't even close.

To give you a feel for it, Mears started 42nd, and ended up in the top ten. MM started in position 2, and ended up 17th.

Casey used to drive the GMAC car. Then it was Brian Vickers. Or maybe it was the reverse. Now that I think about it, it was the reverse. Unless it wasn't. GMAC stopped sponsoring a team.

Martinsville picks are coming up. I know the Hendrick team does well there, but why should I even bother picking Junior? What a horrible stretch of races lately.

Junior has already given up on 2009.

Imagine if an athlete in another sport had stated something similar. x_x

Using my last Denny Hamlin pick, and one of my last three JJ picks.

I have one more Smoke. Wonder where I'll use him!?!

I have two Denny picks left. I'm using them here and in Phoenix.
I may wind up using my last JJ pick here. It's either JJ or Gordon this week.
I may use one of my last two Smoke picks this week.

I had to shelve Newman because he had hit 0 on my list. Not that he necessarily would have won, but I could have used the 10 qualification points.

My Group B choices are: Smoke, Mears, Hamlin, and Jr. What should I do?

I think the only gurantee is that I will choose Smoke.

What to do with 'dinger and Ambrose?

WHAT is Sorenson doing up in the Top 10 starting positions?

I wound up going with Gordon (5th), Hamlin(1st), Smoke(9th), and Ambrose(27th). I lucked out by keeping Dinger (34th), Jr (29th), and
Mears (18th) on the bench. By going with Gordon, I still retain my one last JJ pick.

Hamlin finished 1st, with JJ taking 2nd. If the tallies are correct, I took this week's race, thus expanding my lead.

But remember, next week it's DEGA. Get out your lucky roulette wheel for picks!

Jamie Mac had the best finish of the Fords (6th).

Rainout on qualifying for 'Dega.

Which means I'm stuck with C drivers Scott Speed (36th) and Kes (38th).

Time for Ymo to make a move on my lead.

I sense a MAJOR PW explosion with 'Dega. Where is Ymo?
