| | | | | | | | |  | | | | Who's going to be this year's Nextel Cup Champion? Well, entries into the final twelve spots will be determined this Friday night at Richmond! Will Dale Jr. make it? He's over 100 points back so it's going to take a miracle folks. I'm not counting on it.
The Chase has a different look this year. But it is basically the same drivers as we've had in years past and the same drivers fighting for a spot. Ryan Newman, bless his heart can't catch a break. He's been battling to try out this Chase thing since it started a few years ago.
Do you have a winner picked already? The Hendrick crowd is always a smart pick. Personally, I like the late season pushers. Pat Tryson has that Dodge of Kurt Busch running as good as it did back in Rusty's era. Cousin Carl who really seemed to want a Sharp TV this weekend is surely going to get up on the wheel. Like his spotter usually tells him "Go get 'em Carl." Tony, well what is there to say about him? Tony's going to be himself and take no prisoners.
Folks, I'm not going to sit here and paint a picture for you and say I'm a Hendrick fan. Truth is, I can't stand any of them. Johnson's crew chief gets caught bending the rules here every few weeks and Gordon's new man on the pit box has so far followed in his footsteps. No doubt the cars are strong, but as a fan watching each week I have to question their integrity. Are they legal?
There will be a few sleepers in the group, Denny Hamlin might make some surprises and turn some heads. Bottom line, next week this time we'll know who's in. Come mid-November we'll know who did the things they needed to do to win the sports biggest prize, The Nextel Cup!
