I wondered the same thing. Finally gave up and went to bed.

Made it into the top 10!

Thanks Pete.

I could use some help drafting. My picks sucked last night.

Thankfully Biffle saved me from going to the dreaded under 200 score with his win and leading most laps. I dropped from 16th to 20th.

I just read on another forum that it is final -- Junior is leaving DEI at the end of this season.

Is that true?

Budweiser renews sponsorship with Dale Jr.
By Lee Montgomery, Turner Sports Interactive March 9, 2004
4:42 PM EST (2142 GMT)

Two days after one of the worst races of Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s career, he was celebrating with 7,000 Anheuser-Busch wholesalers in Orlando, Fla.


No, it wasn't a celebration of a 35th-place finish. Instead, Budweiser, Earnhardt Jr. and Dale Earnhardt Inc. announced the signing of a contract extension for the beer-maker to sponsor the No. 8 Chevrolet.

Terms were not announced, but Tony Ponturo, vice president of global media and sports marketing for Anheuser-Busch Inc. said it was a "multi-year" deal.

I saw you cracked the top 10. Congrats! You're flying now.

Ever since the short tracks, I've been doing OK. I've had the winner for 3 weeks in a row and 5 of the 10 races so far this year.

Took me a bit to get my wheels, being a rookie and all, and Texas really slammed me. Had to pick early because I went to the race and picked more out of withfull thinking than common sense. The 24 and the Texas boys did me no good at all.

Enjoyed this race. Was hoping Newman or Kahne would pull the win out. Didn't mind Biffle winning. ALso enjoyed the Waltrip/Green events. Can anyone tell me why Kurt Busch got black flagged for a lap??? I never heard anyone say.
