Good comments by Larry McReynolds. I don’t think the final chapter btn these two has been written yet though.

Thanks, forgot it was time for penalties!

Carl Edwards, driver of the No. 60, has been penalized with the loss of 60 Nationwide Series championship drivers' points, fined $25,000 and placed on NASCAR probation until Dec. 31. Car owner Jack Roush has been penalized with the loss of 60 series championship owners' points.

Brad Keselowski, driver of the No. 22, has been placed on NASCAR probation until Dec. 31.

I wonder how many people think to call the sponsors marketing departments and voice their displeasure? It’s been a couple of long days here...

West Coast Legend still racing at 82. I think I told you that I met Herschel McGriff in the early 50s at a car show in FResno after he won the Pan-American Road race. He raced here at Redwood Acres a few times in the 70s...

Unfair, IMO. Keselowski’s wreck wouldn’t have been so bad if he hadn’t hit the gas after hitting the wall. So, if torn up race cars are the reason for the fine, Keselowski deserves a piece of that.

They could both stand to ease up a little, though.

The old coulda...shoulda...woulda. I find it amusing that Roush lost a couple of cars as a result of a pair of juveniles playing Nascar Roulette...

I’d sure like to see that. I like Jamie Mac.

Don’t want Montoya to win, though! :-)

You been reading the journolist blog again dude?

My sister from Oklahoma is on her way and should be in Bend Saturday. Says she is tired of living in hell.

I’m guessing on drivers for the race as I don’t know whether to go with the stats or w/my gut instincts. I wonder if Lady Luck has a hot-line.

We had a family visit us from a foreign state yesterday and his son made a crack about me being stuck in 10th place in the league so I spent last night looking for stats...

“Tar” day at Indy.....groan.

T.B., didja find anything useful?? I tried the 1-800 # for Lady Luck but twasn’t the lucky lady I was interested in. The clue was when they asked me for my credit card number.

Nap and then wrap gifts for last wife’s birthday. (Tomorrow)

I was starting to respect JPM until he drove across Regan Smith’s hood in the Sprint Showdown, and then blamed it on Smith, saying he had no talent.

Since then, he’s been driving like he did in 2007.

Nope, went over my head. Still trying to recover from moving my son. Our food budget has been cut by more than 1/2.

How does a high of 96 w/ 18% humidity grab ya - our forecast for Saturday & Sunday. Now you know why we don’t have skeeters.

I hope the “good” Jimmie shows up Sunday. He’ll be one of my “A” drivers. Debating Gordon/Stewart as the other...probably Stewart as I have 7 starts remaining for him.
