Just A Word:Other Than Patrick

Just A Word:Other Than Patrick
By Paul Denton

Tony Stewart did win the Nationwide race saturday afternoon,
 Dale Earnhardt Jr. was involved in a frightening, multi-car accident at Daytona International Speedway, where his car flipped upside down as he skidded along the superstretch during the Nationwide Series opener.

Earnhardt was battered from every direction Saturday as other cars could not avoid hitting the overturned No. 88 Chevrolet. He slid through the grass, and the car finally flipped back onto its wheels before coming to a stop. He is Ok

But most every place I looked I had to look hard to find the above stories.Everthing was Miss Patrick

Believe or not there were other drivers in the Nationwide race saturday There was quite alot of action and scary moments and from the look of Speedweeks It might just turn into one hell of a race season.

And I understand how Danica Partick's joining Nascar is exciting I totally agree and think she will do well there .but there are at least 43 other stories plus all the junk dugged up weekly by bored bloggers ,columnists and the like.


This is what I saw when I went to Fox SPORTS NASCAR

Lap 66: Danica Patrick up to 23rd now.
Lap[ 65: New race leader - two-time defending race winner Tony Stewart.
Lap 64: Danica Patrick passes John Wes Townley for 24th place.
Lap 63: Danica hanging on in the middle of the pack, much better laps now compared to earlier.
Lap 61: Tony Eury Jr. to Danica: "Best lap of the race."
Lap 59: Danica still can't find a dancing partner around the track -- nobody will draft with the rookie.
Lap 56: Danica 26th. She is running the low line now and her spotter is telling her to stay down there.
