    Bump Drafts &bull Jul 29, 2010

    The coffers of the governing body got a little richer that day. Three participants in the sport added $75,000 to the kitty for what were deemed to be disparaging remarks. Their names? Rick Adelman, Nate Mc Millan and Glenn Rivers. Rivers is better known to fans as aDoc.a This isnat NASCAR. These three were NBA coaches fined $25,000 each for criticizing officials during the 2009 playoffs. Competitors in other sports have paid similar penalties. New York Jets coach Rex Ryan cut a check for 50 large for flipping the bird to some fans. Heck,… Full Story »

  15. My Five For The 2011 NASCAR Hall Of Fame

    Bump Drafts &bull Jul 7, 2010

    Over the Holiday weekend in Daytona Beach, NASCAR announced the 25 nominees for the Hall of Fame class of 2011. I believed the first class should have included the men that started the sport. To a point, it did. But also included big names after the sport got rolling. For the second class I still feel some credit needs to go to early pioneers but not necessarily chronologically dependant. The new nominee… Full Story »

  17. TNT misses incident between AJ Allmendinger and Richard Petty

    From the Marbles Nascar Blog on Yahoo! Sports &bull Jul 4, 2010

    AJ Allmendinger spun off of turn four early in the Coke Zero 400 Saturday night and was never competitive thanks to some damage to the spoiler that he sustained from hitting the inside wall. After falling a couple of laps off the pace, that was the last time viewers at home would hear or see of Allmendinger during the course of the race, even though he and his car owner, Richard Petty, had a heated exchange in the garage. Allmendinger pulled away from the seven-time NASCAR champion, turned his back on his boss and… Full Story »

The 1992 season was the culmination of the building of Allison's career, and while the 1993 season did not start out how Allison and his team would have hoped, he still would have had a long and storied career. Alan Kulwicki had his fairy tale come true during the 1992 Cup season. Building your own team… Full Story »

    Let me preface this by saying that this story is about me and my experience with a particular situation. Its a dark recollection of one of the worst weekends of my entire life. In terms of journalism, its probably a little too self-indulgent, and if that keeps people from wanting to read it, I understand. However, I also understand that its something I have to write for myself if for anybody, and while I could wait until the week of July 7, I want to get it over with and this weekend's race location gives me that chance.
