I wondered whether she might have been assigned to chase Dale, Jr. because of the unique phrasing of her questions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-9688133271048643692008-10-23T21:11:00.000-04:002008-10-23T21:11:00.000-04:00alex, you hit the nail on the head!

If NASCAR has another rain out on qualifying they might just as well hand the championship to JJ. I think NASCAR is going to have to rethink qualifying on race day like the nationwide cars do it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-59323357588778649002008-10-23T12:31:00.000-04:002008-10-23T12:31:00.000-04:00ri88girl said...
