I remember going to the Rock in the mid nineties. Jeff was on old tires and wanted to put but Ray wouldn't let him. Jeff started cussing over the radio, and his first wife told him to watch his language.

Then you have when Andretti won at Martinsville and Gordon accused him of cheating, because "nobody could possibly pass me on old tires unless their car was illegal"

I remember the Andretti comments.

Missed the race, but apparently outside Jr all my drivers didn't miss the wreck.

In fantasy I finished

1, 30, 38, 42

:L

Mine went 7th, 12th, 5th and 38th. Ragan was caught up in the big one, but with my bench spots, my C spot was the only spot I could have improved on. Harvick finished 8th. Larson was in the big one and Dillon blew a motor in spectacular fashion.

Nice, grats. I would have done better if I had put in my other B drivers. My other C driver was Waltrip, he had 2 extra spots, but 36th ain't much better.

I'm going to get murdered this week. Back to my normal fantasy performance. It was fun being near the top while it lasted.

Super speedways are crapshoots.

This week you would have though the first 50 laps was the last 50 and the last 50 was the first 50 with the racing going on. Big pack racing the first 50 laps. Pretty much single file the last 50 laps.

In regards to our fantasy league I have good news and bad news

Good news is I have selected the winner in 3 straight weeks.

Bad news is my other drivers excluding Junior finished 30th, 35th, & 36th

I ended up with 15th, 30th, 33rd, 36th. It's no wonder I am now in last place. I have 4 weeks of failing to score at least 199 points. I've got 2 wins though, which is tied for the lead. :burt:

I'd now much more rather they go back to tandem drafting. At least that actually involved racing. The drafting they have now is a load of bull. They are so far spaced out, can't really get a run and whoever the leader is after half way is basically the winner just like a typical nascar track. What I saw yesterday was pathetic and boring as hell especially for the last 26 laps.

oh, and what the heck is going on with Jeff Gordon? Once again, he makes a silly mistake on pit road that cost him a chance to win.

Tandem racing was beyond awful

Man, my drivers are both doing awful this year. I commend Tony for at least trying to get a second line going towards the end yesterday, even though he got hung out to dry and ended up 19th. And Edwards hasn't done much of anything yet since moving to Gibbs.
