That's
A Bad Mother.... Rick Hendrick picked up his 200th win as a car owner, by virtue of Jimmie Johnson's winning effort in Darlington. The Hendrick Motorsports teams have been trying to reach that elusive number for a while, but they finally managed to reach the milestone. It's an impressive feat, but it also shows you how staggering Richard Petty's racing career is, since the "King" won 200 by himself. While Johnson shined down the stretch to pick up the win, more troubles continued for Jeff Gordon. The driver of the 24-car must be wondering who put the voodoo hex on his car this year. If something can go wrong, it has this season. Maybe a change in venue this week in Charlotte will do the trick. Dale, Jr. continues to hang tight near the top of the Cup standings, and he also continues his streak of not being able to win a race. For anybody counting at home, we're now up to 1-4-0....140 starts since his last and only win with the Hendrick organization. The guy gets great equipment, and never seems to find Victory Lane. He has now started 155 races for the Hendrick organization and has a 2008 win at Michigan as the bright spot. Amazing. I can't let a NASCAR mention go without talking about the "Face"....Danica Patrick. She told a national TV audience before the race that she wanted to be relatively competitive and finish. Spoken like a true superstar. Well, "Face" did finish....6 laps behind Jimmie Johnson. And afterwards, she said that she "held her own" on the track. Apparently, there is no drug testing in the sport. The FOX Sports broadcast included a comment from Michael Waltrip that left me laughing my ass off....."Mikey" gave "Face" an A+ for her performance. I guess coming from the "Waltrip Family of Broadcasters", that is to be expected. All I could determine is that GoDaddy.com must be spending a fortune on advertising on the FOX broadcasts and somewhere in the fine print is the line that stipulates that Danica cannot be criticized under any circumstance. I think FOX does the best job covering NASCAR, but you lose all sense of credibility when you give a driver, any driver, an A+ for being 6 laps down in a car that hasn't been damaged or wrecked. The same goes for Darrell Waltrip, who made the dumbest comment ever in NASCAR broadcast history, when he claimed that Danica Patrick was the "Face" of the sport before ever completing one lap in her debut at Daytona...
