Yeah I thought about that...it being his favorite track and all. Still don't understand why he said when he got taken out that he could see BK didn't do it on purpose, but just didn't give him room. (Does he expect him to just get out of his way for him?) and then go after him once he was back on the track? Or why he chose the last few laps to do so. . .

Hopefully Carl can turn it around and be OK. Hopefully Bristol will be good for him too. Hopefully Keselowski don't turn around and do his own retaliating as well.

Yeah they kept going back to the drivers policing themselves on the article. I thought when they said that, that it would turn out to be a mistake. Or that someone would try something. Didn't think of it to be Carl though. Was thinking more of Kyle Busch and that type of driver. People or drivers policing themselves I don't think will work , especially when they are going 190mph where theire emotions are already high to begin with. They'll just react to their anger and what not towards the other driver. Guess I see what NASCAR is trying to do to go back to dinging and banging or what not, to go back to the way it once was. But c'mon...they need someone to step in from time to time to police them as well.

Though the more I think of Carl and the past...his attempt to punch Kennseth, him trying to strangle Harvick, his thing with Kyle Busch the other year, and now this with BK -Don't know what Harvick or Kennseth did to him to upset him, but I think Carl is the type of guy that will treat you the way you treat him. If all that makes sense. Or he'll race the other drivers the way they race him.

I also agree with you...Someone has to stand up to Brad otherwise he will get someone hurt if he don't watch it. But don't agree with how it was done. Though don't know how else someone would have done it either that would be right...NASCAR should have stepped in last year with him and put an end to his aggressive driving before he came to cup full time.
That is not Carl's style at all. That was one reason why I like Carl, because he is not an aggressive driver and he doesn't wreck people. Until Sunday. Not only that, but he doesn't even try to cover it up that he done it on purpose. Read somewhere that he put it on his page or somewhere that he did it to send a message to Keselowski. I am sure it did shook him up when BK's car flipped up like that. It still surprises me it coming from Carl. Just as it had surprised me when Gordon shoved Kennseth.

Long time no see. Saw you on the arreste Chet page so I thought I'd send you a quick hello. Hope all is well with you.
-
Eh thought you may be happy to see someone else in victory lane. It was an interesting race and one that people will talk about all year I am guess with Edwards and Keselowski. I understand what you mean...I keep going back and forth with it all.

*Eyes the doctor as she speaks* Good *hears myself speak aloud as my attention turns to Chet's silent and still body lying on the ground before eyeing the people that are now lingering around his body.*

Gary Allen's Greatest Hits CD...haven't listened to it in a long while, but am reminded just how good it is. Of course that could be a matter of my own opinion as well.
-
*Nods at Daney who seems to be keeping her distance from me while eyeing her momentarily.* Glad to see you free from those two *looks over towards Bo and Luke before glancing back at Daney* and look to be alright.

I saw it a couple of weeks ago. DIdn't think I would, it isn't the type of movie I am interested in. But am glad I saw it. I liked the movie and the characters. Knew it was fake and all taht, but they had me holding on hoping that it would work out in the end. Don't know anything about the title or the cartoon, but it was a good movie. I see what you are talking about Roger with the plot behind it - that is probably where they got it from. All in all it was a good movie I thought - better than I had thought it would be.

Anyway, glad he didn't get parked for another race or suspended or what not as I was fearing he would be. Guess Keselowski was wanting NASCAR to park him at Bristol too for it. I don't blame Keselowski for being upset...he had a top five car they said, but I think they should look at the intent of the retaliation andn ot what happened. I am sure Carl didn't intend to flip him like that...
Anyway, I'll shut up now that I've given you a huge novel to read here. I hope that you are having a good week! (Just think, the next Sprint Cup race will be your Bristol race!
Lucky you!!!!!!!!!!!) -
Well looks like NASCAR has placed Edwards on a three race probation for his actions on Sunday...well that and plus parking him after the incident. WHich was a lot better than what I was thinkin' they were gonna do. Guess him, Rousch, and Penske and Keselowski will have to havea sit in meeting before Bristol though to clear the ways and all.
Though NASCAR's rules never make much sense to me...I mean when Gordon shoved Kennseth a few years ago after the spring Bristol race, he got fined ten thousand dollars and put on a six month probation area. Yet Edwards only gets three races on probation plus parked for six laps? Not saying I think Edwards deserves what Gordon got, but I am sure Kennseth was in no danger of getting hurt by Gordon's shove either. Their ruling and all that is never consistant if you ask me.

*Standing back from everyone, though within hearing distance, takes everything in quietly while contemplating what to do next when the sound of The General comes in loud and clear before it comes into sight. Silently watches as Bo and Luke get out with Daney before taking another look at Brian as he tells them to let her go and allow a small smile to cross face to see some closure to the ordeal that had just happened before it quickly disappears. Steals a quick glance at Chet's still body, wondering when he'll wake up and what will be in store for him when he wakes up. Sighing heavily, look back up to watch Bo and Luke let Daney go, yet stay where I stand.*

Lori!!!!!!!!! What have I ever done to you to deserve this?!!!!!!!
Homeschool? HOw's that going? Well other than boring...that's too bad. Hope it gets better for you.l
-
*Takes a cigarette and lights it and offer them back to Brian.* Thanks. I somehow lost mine...probably back at the clinic. *inhales deeply before blowing out.* I appreciate what you've said and hopefully someday I will prove myself to him. Who knows, maybe one day, I will. *Shakes head doubtfully.* Anyway, never thought I'd be saying this when all this started, but somehow *pauses dramatically to inhale once more* I do believe ya. As for me, I have no hard feelings towards you.

EEHK!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let me go!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HA HA. You got Garrett yelling.
I'm doin' alright. How about you? It was great hearing from you! -
*Eyes Brian for a long moment, allows it all to sink in before eyes fall down onto Chet's still body. Looking up at Brian, wondering how much of that was said for MaryAnne, before giving a slight nod.* Well I appreciate your plan you had there Brian. Not too keen on visiting Seattle or anything, but I guess it'd be better than being six feet under. *Eyes dart to Chet once more, remembering what Brian had said he had told him. Shaking head looks away from him.* Yeah *sarcastic small laugh* you had plenty of chances to kill me if you really wanted to. Was kinda wondering why you hadn't...I mean it'd take a while before too many people missed me enough to send a search team out for me. You could be long gone by then. *falls into silent thought while hand routinely goes to pocket before I yank it back out in frustration.*
-
*Eyes Brian for a long moment with emotion-less gray eyes while allowing all he had said to slowly and harshly sink in before eyeing Chet lying on the ground. Taking a long breath, looks back up at Brian.* First of all, I don't see where killing his horse or killing me or Daney will accomplish anything, Brian. Then again, I ain't in your shoes. *Eyes go back to Chet for a moment.* Guess I should just feel lucky he chose me over his beloved horse, though at the moment, I ain't feelin' too lucky. *Hangs head, thoughts turning to Daney before glaring up at Brian.* So just like that, you're goin' to go kill Daney? Someone who has little to do with any of this? I hate to see animals killed for little reason as well, but that's between you and Chet. Though there is no way I am going to stand here and allow you to kill her to get at him! *Points angrily down at Chet's still body.* So if you have to kill someone, kill me, because obviously, I won't be missed too much. (I'll catch up with y'all tomorrow night. )
-
*Nods in relief at Brian before glancing back down at Chet, watching him breath unconciously before turning to Brian.* That's good. *Pauses momentarily to catch breath* Tell me, Brian, what happened in there. *Points back to the court house.* (Well I have to be going in a few minutes. Morning will come quick. )
