You know Tim, I didn’t want to have to do this but I’m ahead of you right now and I’m feeling pretty good about my picks for Fontana. What the rest of you may not know is that I used a couple of dark horses for Daytona to save some guns for down the stretch.
I hope you picked Bill Elliott this weekend …
Hey guys, I got hoodwinked when the Hendricks cars felt the curse of Bruce’s Fantasy pick…. it’s a long story, but I’m coming back at ya.. if it’ll quit raining!
Tim, did you get my email?
Bruce, I think I can follow your drift on the fantasy picks without a huge explanation. I have a weird way of ruining professional athletes’ careers at times by having them on my fantasy rosters as well. =)
And, yes, I did get your e-mail. It’s been a pretty busy week, which is why I haven’t gotten back to you, but expect something back from me over the weekend.
