I was at the ball park all day but was hoping to see Junior car on espn. Had no idea race was rained out...hopefully they will have highlights tomorrow on espn.
 
Driving home today while listening to the AM station disect the Lions draft they had a quick sports update saying that Jimmy Johnson won the race but sounded like it was a really good race with 6 lead changes in the last 9 labs.
 
I missed all the wrecks.
fell asleep too much (felt like junk yesterday/today)

and caught a handful of the laps,
good finish, cept for my boy Gordon, man, first to 15th...ouch.
