NASCAR

The great Richard Petty has opened a real can of worms when he came out and said that Danica Patrick could only win a NASCAR race "if everyone else stayed home." Wow, quite a comment from a famous race car driver who is now in his seventies.  His comments has caused quite a controversy in the NASCAR circles (so to speak).

Hot Wheels enthusiasts can show, sell, buy and swap at the 11th annual Hot Wheels Show and Tell this Sunday, October 27.

I was reading a story from Indianapolis, Indiana where a widow is wanting to place a NASCAR tombstone among other things on her husband's grave site but the Cemetery is saying she can't do it.

If you know me well you already know that I am not the world's biggest NASCAR fan. I do have an appreciation for someone who can drive inches from another car's bumper going nearly 200 miles and hour. I get nervous going 70 MPH and am three car lengths behind someone in from of me.

I just read where next season NBA players will wear advertising on their jerseys. It is a prelude to other teams and leagues doing that as well. It is not a new thought since NASCAR has been doing this for years now.

Anyone who knows me knows I will never be a poster child for NASCAR. It is not one of my favorite sports to watch.
