So, my boy is sitting 14th. I'd like to see Smoke kiss a brick; however, my gut is telling me it just may go to Sorenson, K. Busch or Mears this year. We shall see.

I have a couple hours to to be productive and wash the TA. Then the TV and I have a 1:00 date for the remainder of the day. Enjoy the race fellas.

Jr. just made a nice pass before 12 spun. Jr. is looking strong. It would be nice to see him win one, especially @ IMS.

Looks like the rubber is laying down well as the track temp increases. The tires may hold for more than 6 lps now.

A'ight... back to Bed & the race. Gotta love the weekends.

I NEVER play the pools. It is really a crap shoot each race. Too many variables other than driver skill.

I agree thats why Im calling it quits for this season. The whole year has been picks of drivers crashing, engine failure, or trouble in the pits. Im sticking to the NFL pools.

There is on TNT and the other network stations (ABC/CBS/NBC), evidently ESPN hasn't enacted theirs for NASCAR races.... yet.

There is a delay in the broadcast, it's like a five second delay. ESPN is the same crew as ABC and TNT missed it when Kyle Petty said the F word on the radio during the broadcast. Don't worry he'll get a fine and penalized points for his colorful use of language.

That was radio though, this was TV. I know in the NFL if Im at work and the game is on the radio and also on the TV the play is over on the raido while the ball is being snapped on TV

Not the broadcast radio. It was over Petty's car radio. Kyle Petty was the in car reporter like Jr. was today. He was involved in a wreck and when the TV guys went to him for a comment he was in the middle of saying "What the F*** was that" to his crew and the TV guys had to apologize for the language.

But its cable tv though, there really shouldnt be a fine. But then again it is Tony Stewart. As long as no one make a big deal of it it'll be fine. Its not like he was saying "bull****" about something nascar did, its because he was happy he won the race.

And if loses anypoints/money b/c of it, its bull****

They fined Jr. two years or so ago for saying the same thing after he won a race. So, since they fined Little E, they'll definitely be fining Stewart. It might even be a bigger fine since he seemed to think about before he said it.

Thats one thing I never liked about the fines in Nascar. When someone commits an offense on the track then yes take points. But points are earned for how you preform on the track, not your post race interview. What you do while out of the car when the race is over should have no effect on how you preformed on the track as far as the points you earned. That should be where just fines are a factor.
