Well, you don't need to get so mean about it! I was just trying to help out the poor guy, being as he's trying to learn about our sport! O.k, so we'll put you down for 1.Spencer 2.D.Waltrip - LSC9901 for Darlington

Come now Team Yates, I am a man of my word...I am sticking with my boy in the #00 mobile...we will qualify next race...this is more about loyalty to your drivers and winning...you know...

I agree, but I was trying to give you a "fighting chance!" I know all about loyalty! I've been following Yates since the early '80's!

Sorry I wasn't being mean. I was joking more than anything but if you feel that I've made my picks then so be it. I can live with any losing choice I make. If you carefully look through my posts I don't think you'll find any nasty statements. All I was doing was pointing out (and laughing while doing it) that picks after qualifying would be a real advantage to anyone. Can I pick the winner of the cup after the last race ?

I hope you did note that I said, even though it isn't fair to make picks after qualifying ... I did like the idea !!! Does that sound mean ?

Good going wampinrock......your the only one that picked the winner!!!
Close but no ciiigar for for 2nd!!!

Thanks, TN Gal...being half right is better than I usually fare with the spousal unit (that's humor). Actually, the prediction was based purely on wishful thinking and less on a calculated computation. Future predictions from this computer wizard should be a little less emotional and more factored. Even if I won both positions, I don't have a clue as to what I would choose as a moniker...maybe something like wizand old traditional NASCAR fan that does not forget the Winston years!...??

Hey LSC9901, in no shape or form, did I think you were being mean, I was laughing while I was reading it, so I thought I'd have a little fun back with you, since it seemed like that's where you were coming from (having fun). I've never seen a nasty statement in any of your posts, they are always well worded and intelligent! Most honestly, just razzing you. Sorry, my sense of humor may not be "normal", plus it was involving Gotham - I was just stirring the pot, I'm sorry you took me as serious, heck i even put the LOL smiley face in there to try to denote it was all in fun. Ross said predictions must be in the right thread or the predictions aren't eligible, so if you want to keep those choices for Darlington - you have to add them to the Darlington prediction thread when it is started (Joking)

See what happens once you let me into the forum... ...my life story... I am just minding my own business picking my underdogs as it may...and all hell breaks lose around me...

Same here, Gotham, I guess sometimes I never learn when enough is enough!

Whew !!!! The last thing I want to do to anyone or to these forums is create a disruption. On way to many other forums I see things get out of hand and destroy what is/could be a good thing. Sorry I took it the way I did. Now that is all said and settled ........ no way am I sticking with the picks previously stated. My choices aren't winners (YET) but I'm not going to totally destroy my chances with non-drivers. From my humble perception one of those guys wasn't very good when he was driving and neither of them is any good at what they are doing now.

I agree with you, LSC, I'm just clowning around! Ross said this is our forum to make it what it is and to have fun! It seems as though almost everybody here keeps it chilled, with a few exceptions, who seem to have gone by the wayside! Our admin are really on top of the ball, shutting down bashers, etc.. Ross is always checking things out, and then we have rave20 as a moderator, and of course, Smoke and I as greeters. Now, are you SURE you don't want your picks of Spencer and D.W.?

No winners on the Rchmond race. What happened to all the psychics?

Sounds like it's time to start a thread for the Dodge Charger 500 at Darlington. Pop over to make you "official" predictions there
