Mark Martin And The NASCAR Chase

Mark Martin is on a roll! He is in first place in the NASCAR Chase For The Cup. WOO-HOOO!!!

Looks like a great year for Mark and his team, the Hendrick Motorsports team.

His teammates Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon also made it to The Chase. Good luck to them, and if Jimmie wins The Cup again this year, he will have 4 chanpionships in a row!! He will then glow with a special light as he becomes God of NASCAR.

Lots of other great racers made The Chase though, so it will be tough for my guys to win, but then again, my guys show they can do it.

NASCAR - Jimmie & Jeff

Oh, Look Who Won Another NASCAR Sprint Cup Race

There he is, JEFF GORDON, winner of the latest NASCAR Sprint Cup Race.

OK, usually at this point I'm typing in ALL-CAPS about how great he is. Or, maybe about how great his teammate JIMMY JOHNSON is. However, today I'd like to point out how great they are using lower-case letters. And, using the facts.

Jeff Gordon has pretty much won at least one race at every NASCAR track currently run. This week, he won at Texas. Texas was the only track he hasn't won a race at. WAS. Like, in the past.

Also, he has 82 victories now. This is the 6th-highest of everyone who ever raced in NASCAR. That means only 5 racers have more wins. And, he's only 37 years old. Mark Martin, one of his teammates, is in his 50's. So hopefully Jeff will eventually have more wins than anyone ever in NASCAR. GO JEFF!!!! Ooops, those pesky ALL_CAPS - CAN YOU TELL I'M EXCITED?????

Just awhile ago, I was thinking Jimmie Johnson (one of Jeff's great teammates) would become the new NASCAR God. Looks like maybe it could be JEFF GORDON?

This sport is so complicated to make predictions.

Who's Mr. NASCAR - JEFF GORDON!!!

Woo-Hoo -my 50th post.

And after 6 races this season - who is Mr. NASCAR so far?

Jeff Gordon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And Jimmie Johnson - 4th place. OK, so who cares about 4th place right? Well, if it's Jimmie Johnson, I CARE!!! He's won the last 3 championships, but if Jeff Gordon wins, ok with me, since they are teammates. Teammates unless they are the top 2 racers in a race, but let's discuss that some other time.

Oh, and here's some dude named Andre. Apparently he's about to get laid off from his job, even though he's the only dude actually working.

Looks like he works for the government, or perhaps a banking institution of some kind.

Go Andre! Wouldn't want him leaching off the backs of the people.

40th Post - JEFF GORDON ! ! !

Today I'm putting up my 40th post - WOO_HOO!

And today, Jeff Gordon has the most points in the NASCAR Sprint Cup - YYYEEEEEEAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

But watch out for Matt Kenseth.

He actually has the most $$$$ dinero $$$ won so far this year - like twice as much as Jeff Gordon, who is the points leader.

How is that?

Well, lets look at who wins races - Matt Kenseth.

Ok now, that explains it, since Matt has won 2 of the 4 races this year, and Jeff Gordon has won zero races this year. Do the math - but why does Jeff Gordon have more points?

Do the math.

Ok, NASCAR math is very complicated.

You can have someone cool like Jeff Gordon finish very good in the standings, and you can have someone like Matt Kenseth who won 1/2 the races this year so far, but who screwed up on the other 2 and sucked big-time. So he lost out and was just not getting more points per race. Jeff was better overall at each race.

Don't get me started on how to calculate NASCAR points, especially at the end of the season.

Ok so public school did not teach you enough math to understand this. That's ok, that's why public school is for kiss-ass people who trust the government to help them wipe their asses. If you learn math on your own, in the big bad world where you have to take care of yourself, then you can figure this out. Who knew NASCAR was so advanced.

So who is the greatest???

Jeff Gordon!!!!!!!

Do the math.

JEFF GORDON ! ! !

So far after 3 races, the NASCAR racing points leader is..........

JEFF GORDON ! ! ! ! ! From my favorite team in NASCAR - Hendrick Motorsports.

Jeff Gordon is always someone who can win, but the last 3 years his teammate Jimmy Johnson has been winning the championship. And if Jimmy Johnson wins the cup this year, he will be promoted to the rank of racing God. But for now - JEFF GORDON ! ! ! !

Also on the Hendrick team are 2 of my other favorite racers Mark Martin and Dale Earnhart Jr.

Gotta watch out for that Kyle Busch. He's not one of my faves at all, but is a great racer in his own right.

But for now -
JEFF GORDON - YYEEEEEAAAHHHH !!!
