Alright Joey L

(however your last name is spelled :)

Good racing, but you need to clam down a little bit. Bad move on your
part loosing it into the 88.

I agree, but always felt that if you are on the outside you are in
peril of being on the receiving end of a slide.

Brad K needs a bit more inside blocking prowess.

Not with 51 Busch/Nationwide and 42 Craftsman Truck series races under
his belt over he isn't. He may be a young driver, but his rookie
status days are done and over.

They'll almost definitely be running Cup cars against each other
within the next year or two, for sure. The only question in my mind is
which one makes it up there first. I know there's a lot of talk about
letting young drivers develop in the Nationwide series before moving
them up to Cup, but you have to wonder, watching the way he drives
(pit road incidents and the slide job on Keselowski aside) if he isn't
another of those Kyle Busch-style talents that are just naturally good
at driving and can handle the transition regardless of age.

The telecast annoyed me though. Joey's contact with Keselowski wasn't
appreciably different than what Edwards did to Bowyer, and yet they
kept hammering on Logano as if all he ever did was drive into the side
of people. Even the articles I've read today have frequently referred
to Logano's move as a 'body slam' and Edwards's contact as a 'bump'.
And did anyone hear Rusty say that they wouldn't clear Logano to run
on a superspeedway until they'd cleared him to run on a 1.5 miler?
Just what does Rusty think Kentucky is?

Well, let's have a big hurrah for Landon Cassill who finished 3rd in
the truck race (Iowa boy that he is) and the open-wheelers at Newton
(Iowa Corn 250) who donated their winnings to flood relief in this
state. Good for them! (And Danica was sixth! Kanaan crashed, Wheldon
took the trophy.)

If they both get there next year, neither will be first...

But seriously... Joey will probably be in cup next year...
