BLUEJAYWAYBLUEJAYWAY Posts: 11,318 ✭✭✭✭✭

Coming up February 15th. Not too early to hear any comments.
Some older news. Hamlin's father died In a house fire recently,the Jordan issue with NASCAR, the Biffle tragedy. Will any of these items factor in racing this race or going forward in the season? To be sure Denny Hamlins father will be on his mind throughout.

    Denny Hamlin will be racing all year with a shoulder concern. Has put off surgery until November. He fell going through the leftover fire rubble from his parents house.

    How ironic. Michael Jordan's team wins the Daytona 500 with Tyler Reddick. The irony being he sued and won in a suit against them. So first race he wins the Great American Race.

    He was shaking ice out of the kid's shirt. Despite what people are saying, he's pretty obviously grabbing the kid's shirt not his behind. The touching of the leg, I'm not sure what he's doing. It definitely looks very, very odd.

    Make it 2 Nascar races won in a row for the Michael Jordan team. Reddick scores his second win a row. Must be sweet for Mike on the heels of his successful lawsuit against NASCAR.

    Jordan's team wins it's 5th race of the year in 9 races. Tyler Reddick the winning driver again. Jordan starting to taste winning almost as much as his NBA days. He is having lots of fun too as he is there to see the wins in person.
