It's hard to talk about Daytona without talking about Dale Earnhardt....with 37 wins between the two top series at the track he was synonymous with Daytona. BUT my goal here is not to talk about any one driver in the first post(the next one is on the duels where I will focus on a driver) my goal here is to talk about the race...the first race of the year...the race for pole winners...the race formally known as the Bud Shootout but now known as the Sprint Unlimited. History: Before you think this is gonna be some kinda report it's not...just some information. Originally called the Busch Clash, then the Budweiser shootout, now the Sprint Unlimited, this is the race for drivers who have won poles in the previous year or have won this race before. There are no points awarded for this race...just money. The format has changed over the years, as has the way to qualify for the race, but this year they have gone back to basics for qualifying for this race. Past winners: This is

Here we go, I will update with the times as they are released, BUT, here is the 2013 NASCAR Sprint Cup schedule.... I figured for this year the only thing that made any sense for the 1st post was the most famous tweet this year. This of course is the famous tweet from Brad Keselowski during the red flag during the Daytona 500 2/16/2013-- Sprint Unlimited --8 p.m.-- Daytona International Speedway-- Non-points-- Last years winner-- Kyle Busch (T.V.

I have been trying to figure out ways to post more on here; and I don't mean just like "Hi I'm still here" posts so I was thinking I would take my love for NASCAR, my knowledge of the sports history, and this seasons schedule(hopefully with some interesting twists and turns) and do some(hopefully)interesting posts. So the plan right now is shortly after the first of the year I will have a post with the entire NASCAR Cup schedule which will include the date, track, whether it is a points race or not, the defending winner, and(when possible) the race name. Then, before each race I plan on a "history post" where I will pull a race from the NASCAR archives either on the date, or at the track. After the race I will do a recap post, where I will talk about the race, with highlights on the winner, whoever ran good but didn't get the win, and possibly the driver who didn't perform to their capabilities. That's what the plans for next year are; your feedb

In case anyone who reads my Twitter or facebook is curious what is wrong with my wrist I'll let you know. In April of 2010, on a Friday, I was rollerskating and fell with my left hand stretched out, that resulted in my elbow and shoulder getting "jammed" and I thought that is all that had happened to my wrist, the following Monday I had a Dr's appointment so I brought up the fact that I had fallen and the Dr decided to take some X-rays and make sure nothing was broken; it was determined then that I had not broken my wrist but just sprained it, the treatment method was to take anti-inflammatory medicine and wear a brace on my arm for 6 weeks. After the 6 weeks my wrist was still bothering me so my primary care doctor referred me to an orthopedic doctor. The orthopedic doctor took another set of X-rays and said that he showed no broken bones and that I should try physical therapy. I went through a 6 week course of physical therapy designed for the hand and wrist, the

First of all big thanks to @OneMenz (Joe Menzer) who gave me the idea with a conversation he was having with someone on Twitter. The list that I'm gonna put on the this post is not EVERY place I want to see put the ones that I would REALLY REALLY like to see before I die.  The Grand Ole Opry(won't really matter who is singing)  Hawaii  Italy  France  Some of the countries my family came from(There are so many that I can't remember them all)  Washington D.C  The Golden Gate Bridge(I'm a sucker for landmarks)  The Grand Canyon  Feel free to add anything you think would be cool for me to see either when I'm at one of these sights or on the way. :)

I just finished what is supposed to be the final book in the Katie Weldon Series, which follows the Christy Miller, Seria Jensen, and Todd and Christy series', and the only thing I didn't really like about the book was the ending which seemed, to me at least, to be a hanging ending but other than the ending the book did wrap up a lot of the loose ends from the one before this. That's all for now, more to come as a read more books and see more stuff!
