Daytona 500 Countdown

DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR DRIVERS ARE???

Top 50 drivers ranked in KACSPORTS exclusive 2007 Fantasy NASCAR Preview.

 
BIG NAMES MISS BIG SHOW: Michael Waltrip actually ran well enough in his halve of the duel 150's to qualify for the Daytona 500. However some other big names on new teams that didn't have points from last year to fall back on were not nearly as fortunate. Brian Vickers, Paul Menard, and Jeremy Mayfield will be among those watching at home on Sunday.


SAINTS, STEELERS TABBED FOR HALL OF FAME GAME: Circle the calender for August 5 - even though it will be players fighting for roster spots in the lineup for most of the game, it is the day that you know NFL football is back, and has traditionally been televised on network television, whether it be ABC or as was the case last year, NBC. Well, guess what - it's not on network TV this year, I'll give you three guesses who's doing Mike Tomlin's coaching debut, and the first two don't count. Let's just say as of right now if you don't have a dish you likely won't be able to watch.


TABLOID SPINS TALE OF JUNIOR ROMANCE... Are you sick of the cheating news already??? Do you really care that teams are puting rocket fuel in their cars??? And if Robbie Reiser weren't allowed on pit road until 2011 would you actually miss him or even notice??? Well, here's some legitimate NASCAR news, as the Globe spins a story of Dale Earnhardt Jr. and American Idol Kelly Clarkson possibly being at item. Well, at least that's what the paper kind of wants you to believe. Clarkson was signed last month to a pretty lucrative deal by NASCAR to help promote the sport. The article then admits that if Junior was dating anyone right now it would be former Ricky Hendrick fiancee Emily Maynard. Ricky Hendrick was one of the victims of the doomed Hendrick Motorsports flight heading to Martinsville a couple years back. But the article concludes by saying that what NASCAR is really hoping for is a Junior/Clarkson courtship, and if successful, Junior might even mend fences with his stepmom. Sounds like trying to mate a couple giant pandas at the zoo, never let facts get in the way of a good story.


TIM HARDAWAY - 'I HATE GAY PEOPLE...': As the aftershocks of John Amaechi's disclosure continue to reverberate upon the sports landscape, former NBA point guard keeps the pot stirring with some incredibly controversial remarks made on a Miami sportstalk show. During the segment Hardaway says the following - 'You know, I hate gay people, so I let it be known. I don't like gay people and I don't like to be around gay people. I'm homophobic. I don't like it. It shouldn't be in the world or in the United States.' Hardaway later adds that if he found out a player on his team was gay, he would asked for that player to be removed. Hardaway later apologized for making the comments in an interiew with a TV station saying 'I regret it. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said I hate gay people or anything like that. That was my mistake' I think Tim said that while desperately trying to put some toothpaste back into the tube.

HARDAWAY HONEST BUT HATE-FILLED: While comments from others over the last week have been considered 'fuzzy', Hardaway's shocking remarks comes through as bigoted and 'hate-filled'



LOST TREASURE FOUND - BERRA, LARSEN TO CHECK OUT '56 TELECAST: You have probably seen the newsreels of the final out, including Yogi Berra famously jumping into Don Larsen's arms. Now a collector who years ago bought filmreels containing the original NBC broadcast of Don Larsen's 1956 perfect game will show the broadcast to the public for the first time at a New Jersey fundraiser, with Berra and Larsen in attendence. Prior to the advent of videotape (late 1960's), the major networks usually destroyed or wrote over the broadcasts of events, as they would simply take up too much space. The broadcast of a baseball game would typically take up several large reels. Sometimes broadcast tapes would be sent to U.S. troops overseas, but those usually were immediately destroyed as well. The first reel of the Larsen game is lost, but everything from the second inning on is intact, with Vin Scully and Mel Allen calling the action.


VALENTINE'S SPECIAL - TOP TEN SPORTS ROMANCES: No-Mah and Mia (expecting twins), Andre and Steffi, Terrell Owens and himself, Anna Kournikova and hockey players, and Chris Evert and Greg Norman???


THE 140 LB FISH FRY: Wisconsin ice-fisherman are scoring six-foot sturgeons weighing anywhere from 100 to 140 lbs. Any bigger and the fish are going to be taking down the fishermen.


STAR U.S. GOLFERS A DYING BREED??? Tentative list for next week's World Match Play Championships include 22 U.S. golfers out of 64. In the events first year in 1999, 40 of the 64 participants were Americans.


PERHAPS LUCKY TO BE ALIVE: Nebraska running back Marlon Lucky out of ICU after being rushed to the hospital over the weekend after being found unresponsive in his apartment. While thanking well-wishers, family members indicated that the medical emergency was not the result of alcohol or drug use.


EXIT SANDMAN??? Mariano says if contract extension isn't worked out now, he may walk away from the Bronx. Where could Rivera go??? The list probably starts with the ol' arch-rival.


BODE TAKING ANOTHER 0-FER??? Ends up 15th in the giant slalom after taking a header off a gate during an error-filled second run, thus remaining medal-less at the World Championships. Only the slalom remains, where Miller NEVER finishes.


ADVERTISING TO APPEAR ON WRIGLEY OUTFIELD WALLS: Ads for Under Armour will appear on the doors in which the batting cages and other equipment are stored in, none of the ivy will be ripped apart. Under Armour equipmaent is also to be worn on star free-agent acquisition Alfonso Soriano.


SOMEBODY HAS TO WIN: Celtics 18-game losing streak to get serious test at hands of visiting Bucks in a game that will remind no one of Game 6 in 1974. Per league rules someone will have to win this game, like it or not.


WELCOME TO NASCAR TOYOTA, MIKEY DOCKED 100 POINTS: A second day of scandal hit the Daytona 500 on Wednesday when two-time winner Michael Waltrip's crew chief and team director were thrown out of NASCAR's biggest race for cheating. The two were suspended indefinitely after an illegal substance believed to be some sort of jet fuel was found during inspection for the season-opening race. Maybe Mikey called Lisa Nowak and asked to get some shuttle fuel from Cape Canavral. Maybe Mikey just wanted to mix the jet fuel in his hair, couldn't possibly look any worse.

NASCAR CHEATING NOTHING NEW: Old saying is that 'If you're not cheating, your not trying...' Incidentally news of the Daytona cheating scandal even made one network evening newscast on Wednesday - like somebody is actually shocked???



STARTING IN THE HOLE: You and I are ahead of a few drivers in the Nextel Cup standings after unprecedented penalties handed down Tuesday. Matt Kenseth was docked 50 points and all three Evernham entries were punished as well, Kasey Kahne starts -50, while Elliot Sadler and Scott Riggs start at -25. In addition Kenseth and Kahne's crew chiefs are suspended four races while Sadler and Riggs' crew chiefs will sit for two events. The most severe punishment of all could be awaitng Michael Waltrip, NASCAR is still trying to figure out what to do with him after confiscating his car after Sunday's qualifying session.


NO HARD FEELINGS BETWEEN NEWBURY, PETROVICKY: As seen in the Youtube link at the top of the page, where Maple Leafs winger Kris Newbury was KO'd at the hands of Pittsburgh veteran Ronald Petrovicky over the weekend in a nationally televised Saturday night game in Canada. Newbury says that Petrovicky gave him a call the next day to see how he was doing and to apologize, Newbury said no apology was needed. Newbury also vows not to let the incident deter him from getting into scraps in the future, citing that it is part of his game. Newbury adds that he feels great and expects to be back in the Toronto lineup in about a week. Other than getting five for fighting, Petrovicky does not face disciplinary action from the league.

OTTAWA GOALIE SUSPENDED THREE GAMES: While the National League still accepts two combatents dropping the gloves from time to time, it takes a very dim view when stickwork gets involved. Goaltender Ray Emery found that out the hard way, as he was suspended three games for smacking a Montreal player in the face with his goalie stick over the weekend. The player hit was wearing a visor and escaped injury.



NBC ANNOUNCES BIG PLANS FOR TIKI: Comparing his personality to that of baseball icon Joe Garagiola, Tiki Barber will be a correspondent for the Today show as well as other NBC news shows as well as NBC's football coverage. The network notes Barber's popularity with woman on why he will be successful in the TV business.


MOST EXPENSIVE SPORTS TICKET EVER??? Courtside seats for Vegas All-Star game running around $30,000 - threatens to bring city to standstill.


CAR ACCIDENT ROCKS ILLINOIS HOOPS PROGRAM: Freshman center Brian Carlwell in critical condition with a severe concussion after car crosses center line and hits a tree. Sophomore guard Jamar Smith was treated and released, he also had a concussion.


CHARLIE WEIS CIVIL SUIT BEGINS: You may have heard the story before, then Patriots offensive coordinator underwent bariatric surgery a few years ago - the procedure involves reducing the size of the stomach. Weis's doctor performed the initial procedure then left town for the weekend while Weis developed complications. The coach wound up in a coma for two weeks and was given last rights before recovering.


BEARS CHAMPIONSHIP GEAR ARRIVES IN AFRICA: It's become an NFL tradition, the championship T-shirts and caps printed up for teams who ultimately lost either the conference championship or the Super Bowl arrive in countries where the natives are eager to don anything that is shiny and new. That was the case as about 300 caps and shirts touting the World Champion Chicago Bears arrived at a World Vision volunteer outpost in Zimbabwe. Workers there even joked about still having Pittsburgh Steelers Championship gear from Super Bowl 30. Hey, paint over the final two X's and replace them with an L and you really have something accurate. Before hatching this idea years ago, the league simply destroyed the advance print-up for the eventual losing teams after the playoffs.


SPANOS WHACKS MARTY: Chargers coach Marty Schottenheimer was fired Monday night in a 'shocking' move (actually not so shocking if you ask me) by team president Dean Spanos, who cited a 'dysfunctional situation' between the coach and general manager A.J. Smith. Since the Chargers bitter playoff loss last month both the offensive and defensive coordinators have left (for head coaching positions) along with two other coordinators. USC coach Pete Carroll is among those rumored to replace Schottenheimer. Hey Marty, I'll make you a deal - if you can fly I won't shoot you down...


JOHN ROCKER PLUGGING 'SPEAK ENGLISH ONLY' CAMPAIGN: Saying that it is the only real chance for immigrants to prosper in America, washed-up Major Leaguer John Rocker is currently in a campaign urging that all Americans learn and speak English. Wonder what John thinks about employment positions where being bilingual is preferred. Incidentally, Rocker poses on his website with a freelance writer named Alicia Marie, who Rocker says is his girlfriend. Alicia also happens to be from New York and is black. I suppose Frosty Wooldridge is all behind this campaign.


NOW WHAT DOES CHMURA THINK OF THE COWBOYS??? Been hearing a lot of belly-aching about Michael Irvin getting in the Hall of Fame while Art Monk (who WILL eventually get in) is left out for another year. Meanwhile I refer back to the February 10, 2006 edition of KACSPORTS - where I note Mark Chmura not being too happy about Troy Aikman getting in. At the time Chmura said 'If Michael Irvin didn't have his friend's crack pipe in his car, he'd probably be in, too. What a flippin' joke - I am so sick of the Dallas Cowboys. I really am.' The real question is what causes more damage to one's professional career - being caught with a crackpipe or just allegedly being seen in a hot-tub with a 17-year old at an after prom party. In that same edition I also noted how 13 different teams had lost the Super Bowl in as many years, well now make that 14. Notice no one wants to be the next 'Buffalo dynasty'


CUBAN SAYS ACTIVE PLAYER COMING OUT WOULD BE GOOD THING: Mavericks owner Mark Cuban said an NBA player that announced he was gay during his career could get rich, according to a published report. Cuban told a Dallas newspaper 'From a marketing perspective, if you're a player who happens to be gay and you want to be incredibly rich, then you should come out, because it would be the best thing that ever happened to you from a marketing and an endorsement perspective. You would be an absolute hero to more Americans than you can ever possibly be as an athlete, and that'll put money in your pocket.'


DUKE LAX PREPARES FOR REBIRTH: While last year's ugly rape case continues to get played out in the courts, the Duke men's lacrosse team prepares for it's February 24th season opener. All 35 players who were given the opportunity to leave the school without penalty returned to the squad, which is now headed by former Hofstra coach John Danowski.


NEWBIE AND OLD SALT ON DAYTONA FRONT ROW: David Gilliland follows second place Shootout finish with Daytona pole, with Robert Yates teammate Ricky Rudd lining up second.

KAHNE, KENSETH CREW CHIEFS BUSTED: Making an early statement that they're not going to put up with any games this year, the qualifying times of Kasey Kahne and Matt Kenseth were disallowed yesterday for what was termed to be equally blatent violations - and the #9 and #17 teams figure to face major penalties. A similar infraction last year led to a $25,000 fine and a four-race suspension for Jimmie Johnson crew chief Chad Knaus. Ironically, Johnson would go on to finish first, second, first, and sixth in the races Knaus missed. Also, Michael Waltrip saw his #55 Toyota Camry confiscated after officials noted a 'mystery substance in the car's intake manifold.

ERIN'S BID TO WIN DAYTONA RACE FALLS SHORT: Erin Crocker (pictured) sat on pole, and ran well in ARCA race - but fell short in bid to win.



LEFTY SLUMP OVER: What's wrong with Phil Mickelson??? Nothing that a trip to the Monterrey Pennisula couldn't solve. Despite hitting a tee shot O.B., Phil has low round of the day and routs field at Pebble Beach.


FOOTBALL 'SPY' CLEARED: A judge has dismissed charges against a 'football spy' and instead throws a flag at police who arrested a man during a High School practice in Utah. A 25 year-old was arrested for trespassing on school property during the week of a big game between Logan and Tooele High School. The alleged trespasser's father and brother were assistant coaches at Tooele.


STONE COLD LOCK OF THE DAY: Here, I will make you care about the Pro Bowl. The NFC goes off as a four point underdog for the Saturday night game. That is like taking candy from a baby, it won't be like Tiki Barber has anything to hold back for next season. game it would not surprise me. Not to mention the conference that loses the Super Bowl usually does well in this game. Tiki says farewell by rushing for 200 against a bunch of hungover Colts and bummed out Chargers.


FORMER VIKING BATTLES MEMORY LOSS, DEPRESSION: Former lineman Brent Boyd graduated with honors from UCLA before being drafted by the Minnesota Vikings in 1980. Boyd suffered a concussion during a pre-season game that year, and figures that he would go on to suffer many more concussions during his six-year pro career. Boyd says that his condition did not get diagnosed until his marriage broke down and was unable to hold down a steady job by the late 1990's, at which time he said he and his son were living out of their car. Saying he is being supported by a number of UCLA alumni, Boyd talks about becoming increasingly frustrated by the NFL refusing to pay him disability, and the lengths he has gone to prove that his condition was football-related.


MUSHROOM CLOUD AT GONZAGA: Coach Mark Few is said to be 'disappointed and shocked' following the Friday night arrest of two of his players, including West Coast Player of the Year candidate Josh Heytvelt. The arrest occurred after a car containing Heyvelt and a freshman player was searched, inside was found marijuana along with PSYCHEDELIC MUSHROOMS. Although both players say they are innocent, Gonzaga has suspended both indefinitely, the two will not play Saturday against against Saint Mary's or on Monday against Santa Clara.


THAT'S WHAT WIE DOES: Sick of hearing about Michelle Wie??? You're in luck, as the most over-hyped golfer in history somehow managed to fall on her left wrist while running and will be away from golf for at least a month. Wie already had a bad right wrist dating back to her disastrous Sony Open appearance. Golf and two bad wrists, not a good combination.
