Johnson Takes It In The Pocono

The tricky triangle proved to be no match for the 48 team of Jimmie "Tiny" Johnson. He dominated the day to get his third win of the season and take command of the points lead with a maximum points day. That makes me sick...even though I did pick him.

Dennis and Michael's plan to take advantage of the qualifying and practice rainouts, didn't pan out exactly as they had hoped. While they did finish first and second for the week, it wasn't near the landslide they though it would be. So hahaha!!! Here are the points for the week and the standings:

Week-Michael 192, Dennis 191, PT 190, Joe 189, Chuck 187, Neil 184, Jim 171, Brent 154, Freddy 154, Toby 151, Terry 131, Norb 126

Segment-Michael 924, PT 898, Dennis 897, Chuck 883, Brent 851, Neil 841, Joe 810, Freddy 752, Toby 742, Norb 735, Terry 692, Jim 674

Overall-Chuck 2463, Michael 2432, PT 2357, Brent 2309, Dennis 2300, Neil 2263, Jim 2258, Freddy 2251, Joe 2208, Toby 2080, Norb 2075, Terry 2048

This week's race is at Michigan on Sunday at 12:15 P.M. I will need your picks by 2:30 P.M. on Friday afternoon.

I have a confession to make. I screwed up with Terry's picks for the week. I gave him the 14 in the first group. However the 14 is in the second group. My bad but it's not a big deal. Terry is so far behind (no offense) that it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things.

This week my song is a tribute to this week's winner, Jimmie "Tiny" Johnson and to the fact that he wins quite often. On the bright side though, he loses more races than he wins. So, this is for all you Jimmie Johnson haters out there, including me. This song put me on the couch tonight because my wife is a Jimmie Johnson lover. That just shows the sacrifices I am willing to make to provide good, high quality entertainment.
