First Off, congratulations to Todd Bodine for winning the Nascar Craftsman Truck Series Championship. Believe it or not, this is the first Nascar Championship for the Bodine family, and Todd has dominated this year's run for the trophy. In my opinion, the CTS is one of the most competitive and exciting racing series in all of racing.
Now, the big race. Sunday, Jimmie Johnson will try to hold off Matt Kenseth, Denny Hamlin, Kevin Harvick, and Dale Earnardt Jr. To win his first ever Nascar Nextel Cup Championship. Currently, Johnson has a comfortable 60 point lead over Kenseth and just needs to finish 12th or better to secure the Cup.
I guarantee that my remote control will be busy flipping from the race to the football games including the Colts vs. The Cowboys. This will be Tony Romo's biggest game of his short career, and I expect him to rise up and meet the challenge head on. The Colts defense is weak and watch for Julius Jones and Marion Barber to exploit the Colts' line and both should have huge games. Unfortunately, I think Manning will be the big difference in this game. He is probably the best QB in football today, and I expect the Colts to narrowly escape defeat against my Cowboys.
Now to the biggest football game of the week. The match-up between #1 Ohio State and #2 Michigan should live up to it's expectations. I personally don't care who wins, or even have a pick for this game, but I will be watching with the expectation of this being the game of the year and the game that will decide who will be this year's NCAA Champion.
OK, now go grab some beer, potato chips, and French onion dip; call the boys over; send the wife to the mall; and enjoy some great sporting events this weekend.
