Ok, I know racin' is still the order of the day, but I'm chompin at the bit ta see the pigskins fly come the exabitions. 
     The draft looks interestin this year.  Watch the Falcons.  Ryan an Douglas may be a dream team, hard ta say just yet.  As usual, I'll pull fer the Steelers, it's in the blood.  Pickin up a couple good running backs this year, but not much expected from the team overall just yet.  I'm not a fairweather fan, so I'm stuck with em ;) 
     What can I say, it's good inta July already an this stuff is right around the corner.  It's always a treat each season ta see how long it takes Lil ta go from a "die hard" Raiders fan ta cussin em. ;D  I'm just gettin excited I guess.

On a football note, Michael Vick, AKA Ookie, is delclarin' bankruptsy.

Enjoy yer li'l hobby, Ookie? I reckon ya kin take the thug out the project but ya can't take the project out the thug.

Knew the whack was gonna leave a big, red, ugly welt.

Truex was docked 150 driver championship points as his portion of sweeping penalties handed out as a result of Truex's No. 1 Dale Earnhardt Inc. Chevrolet failing to meet NASCAR's roof templates during prequalifying inspection last Thursday for the Coke Zero 400 at Daytona International Speedway.

The loss of 150 points drops Truex from 14th to 18th in the Cup standings, 238 points behind 12th-place Tony Stewart, who holds the last Chase-eligible position with eight races left before the field for the Chase is set Sept. 6 at Richmond.

In addition, NASCAR fined crew chief Kevin Manion $100,000, suspended him for six races and from NASCAR activities until Aug. 27, and placed him on probation through Dec. 31. Car chief Gary Putnam received the same suspensions and probation, but no fine.

Car owner Teresa Earnhardt was docked 150 car owner points, dropping the No. 1 Chevy from 14th to 19th in the owner standings.

None of the articles I read mentioned the return of the car.

Arcey, I think they kept the 70 and 66, so I guess they plan on keepin' the 1 also.

Sher is hell what I was thinkin'. But Hunter was runnin' his mouth prior to the announcement that the 66 'n 70 were designed to be changed after tech. They returned the one they siezed from JGR a couple years ago with the body cut off 'n the motor missin'. The motor didn't have anything to do with it. Never can tell what that bunch is gonna do.

I guess those guys can pretty well do what they want to do and the teams and owners don't have much sayso.

Well, so much for the worst kept secret.  Tony and JGR are parting company at the end of 2008. He is going to buy into or purchase Haas/CNC Racing.  He is gutting the shop, changing the #'s of the cars.  They will drive Chevys and Newman is #1 candidate to drive the other car and Tony will drive one.  Looks like they are going to put Lagano in the #20 and keep Home Depot. As of now, Zippy is staying with JGR.

I like it!

Should be interestin'. Stewart went into open wheel in the best equipment. He had the best stuff when he got into stock cars. Next year, no Home Depot money. No JGR support. No Zipadelli willin' ta put up with his ego. Now he's gettin' in junk 'n I don't think he'll have a clue where to start.

I reckon Gene Haas is still stinkin' rich. If his fines are paid perhaps he can still move his private funds from jail.

What's funny is rememberin' his dump on Waltrip for finishin' his time on the track as a loser. When Stewart hangs it up, he'll be way short of Waltrip's win total 'n one championship short too.

Hehehehehe.. This time next year, can we say 'reality check'?

Yeah... Geez... Musical chairs...

I was kindah rough on the irl a while back, But damn,seriously. They're strugglin' on a number of fronts. Sponsors with good money are hard to come by even in NASCAR in this economy. Sponsors 'n TV ratin's go hand in hand. Sponsors want lottsa TV watchers.

Whoever made the decision to put their race on opposite of the cup race tomorrow evenin' needs to be evaluated. They're gonna get killed 'n that's with the cup race on cable.

Yep,  I forgot about the NNS race being on last night.  Saw the Winner's Circle celebration.  Toyo's 1 and 2.

Don't know what ya saw. Toyotas were 4 of the top 5. NASCAR snatched nine motors from the 4 manufacturers to carry to Concorde for testin'.

Hamlin 2nd after startin' last. Right rear spring jumped the perch in qualifyin'. How in the hell he kept from wreckin' it I'll never know.

Keselowski was sicker'n a dog but he managed 3rd. The Navy has informed JRM they won't be back as the sponsor next year.

Vickers 4th. Loose wheel, again. Had to stop early. Speedin', again. Lost two laps but he made e'm up.

Reutimann was gone in the beginnin'. The pit folks couldn't keep up with the track. Reutimann is startin' ta sound more'n just a l'il frustrated.

Stewart was drivin' the 20. Missed a gear on the start 'n Harvick knocked the crap outtah him. Neither car was right after that. Stewart 9th,  Harvick 18th.

The Roush cars my have something for the #18 tonight. I don't care who wins, as long as it's not Wonder Wimp and his lil' buddy.

Arcey, I saw an ad on TV last night about body powder. It's called "Monkey Butt" and is supposed to cure your "rosy red pattot".

Thanks butt I won't use anything 'cept Boudreaux's Butt Paste.

Might wanna suggest it ta Johnson though. Pretty sure his'n is good 'n red this mornin' after havin' Busch up it on that last restart.

Him and Wonder Wimp always try to pull something cute on the restart.  It seems to me that they have made those two the poster boys for Nascar. It makes me sick how the announcers and commentators "brown nose" those two.  Kyle Busch is a welcome change from those two squirrels.

Tex, mi amigo. Thinkin' I've been clear on my dislike for all things Hendrick. But I gottah give credit where it's due. Gained a small, very small, measure of respect for Johnson last night. He admitted he made mistakes on the last restart that cost him the race. Said he was mad at himself. Congratulated Busch on the win. In this day of 'it's never my fault' that was refreshin'.

As much as I enjoy seein' a JGR car whip hiney, Busch is hard to like. In a pre-race interview it was pointed out he was gettin' more cheers and less boos. He said he really wasn't concerned with that. Thinkin' I would have said I was very appreciative of that 'n I was workin' hard to gain fan support that I know my attitude has damaged in the past.

Never let anyone know I said it, but Johnson 'n Gordon both have more positive character in their little fingers than both Busch brothers have in their entire bodies.
