Stoopud Jimmie Johnson...

*grumble*

SweetSunny		2009-11-22 02:44:37 PM

Martin's still got a shot. I'm hoping for a 48 blown engine early in the race and a Martin top 5.

This.

*ohpleaseohpleaseohplease*

Big Merl		2009-11-22 02:55:24 PM

I'm not hoping for an engine problem because that is too unlikely. Instead I am relying on Scott Speed to do something stupid on pit lane. He pits only two boxes behind the 48.

I share this sentiment.

Congrats to Rowdy Busch, winning the Nationwide race AND championship yesterday.

Unlike some drivers I know, he worked hard all season to earn the championship.

Mike Rowe.

I'm totally straight, but I'd go gay for him.

/tmi?

Totally understandable. He's hot.

kteela		2009-11-22 03:26:49 PM

So, if Mark wins and Jimmie finishes 25th or worse...

Yeah.

Still, GO MARK!

Harcourt Fenton Mudd		2009-11-22 03:30:25 PM

After JJ leads the first lap, it becomes something like 27th until Martin leads a lap.

SweetSunny		2009-11-22 03:30:41 PM

Free RaceView this weekend - I've got Martin on PitCommand.

Woo, that was awesome.

Hi, all!

Dumb-Ass-Monkey		2009-11-22 03:32:52 PM

All we need is for a 1st lap Big One, taking out 42 cars, leaving only Mark as the surviving driver.

What if Kyle took out Johnson in lap 10? He'd gain some fans, at least ;)

I'm pretty sure Wil has dibs. He was the first to proclaim his man-crush on him.

vegaswench: Hi, all!

Hi Vegas!

SweetSunny		2009-11-22 03:39:19 PM

nice work Ambrose!

Harcourt Fenton Mudd		2009-11-22 03:39:42 PM

That's Awesome!!!

Dumb-Ass-Monkey		2009-11-22 03:40:25 PM

Awesome for Marcos!

He's got it in him to be a major player in NASCAR.

vegaswench		2009-11-22 03:41:23 PM

Warchild: vegaswench: Hi, all!

Hi Vegas!

Hey, Warchild! Can't believe the season is over in a few hours. That sucks.

Dumb-Ass-Monkey		2009-11-22 03:43:31 PM

Dammit!

bad timing for Marcos.

Big Merl		2009-11-22 03:46:54 PM

I left to do my laundry, what happened to Ambrose? Was he given a drive through penalty for passing the 48?

vegaswench		2009-11-22 03:47:32 PM

snert...flat tire

vegaswench		2009-11-22 03:48:33 PM

I blame Chad somehow

Hey, RaceDay is free today. Just make sure you use IE, it's wonky in FF.

Dumb-Ass-Monkey		2009-11-22 03:52:14 PM

What the hell is happening to Ambrose?

Did Junior's bad luck get switched to him somehow?

kteela		2009-11-22 03:53:20 PM

Thanks for the tip - was having problems with it.

Electrical. Power is wonky.....

Anytime.

You know, if they're going to insist on running NASCAR races up against football, they should have the common decency to stagger the commercials.

turbokat		2009-11-22 03:59:16 PM

I have a good feeling about the 31 today. RCR seems to have gotten their heads out of their ass.

Picture In Picture should be mandatory in all TVs these days.

would save SO much hassle.

The nerve of these competing sports!

Dumb-Ass-Monkey		2009-11-22 04:11:53 PM

I liked the Scrubs commercial.

The "An Officer and a Gentleman" reference was good.

Dumb-Ass-Monkey		2009-11-22 04:17:37 PM

Why the hell did my Niners choose Alex Smith over Aaron Rogers?

I'll never understand that...

/yeah, the Pack just beat my Niners.

I'm gettin' tired of bein' right...............

turbokat		2009-11-22 04:38:03 PM

What a mess, thanks Andretti!

Old_Chief_Scott		2009-11-22 04:41:14 PM

I'm impressed with how racy things are today. They're mixing it up pretty good out there.

Dumb-Ass-Monkey		2009-11-22 04:41:46 PM

What happened? I was watching Star Trek 2.

Two words "Progressive Banking". This could work at Talladega.

So I wasn't the only one? KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!

turbokat		2009-11-22 04:45:11 PM

Andretti hit the wall (I know, I was surprised too!) and he blew tire chunks everywhere.

SweetSunny		2009-11-22 04:46:12 PM

Johnson's radio has been occasionally amusing - he was dropping f-bombs about the 42 earlier

Dumb-Ass-Monkey		2009-11-22 04:46:46 PM

RocketRod: So I wasn't the only one? KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!

I have been... and always shall be... your friend.

*sniff*

turbokat: Andretti hit the wall (I know, I was surprised too!) and he blew tire chunks everywhere.

It's only fair. The idea of JJ winning another championship makes me blow chunks, too.

The pressure's getting to him! *giddy laugh*
