Being the egotistical sort of creature that I am, I often – upon hearing certain news items come out of the NASCAR garage – go back through my archives to assure myself that I do, in fact, know what I am talking about. Turns out that’s the case once again this week, as another set …
In the spirit of diversity, and seeing as how some things never change, especially when dealing with a NASCAR race in Fontana, today’s Top 10 may look a bit different, but yet slightly familiar. Familiar in the sense that it is a slightly modified version of the one that was published last year about this …
Last year about this time, I penned a column about the racing at Bristol that eventually led to the severe hair loss of several senior members of the Frontstretch editorial staff. The problem, it seems, was my calling into question the professionalism of another journalist after he boldly proclaimed that he – and the masses of …
10. At least one of the nights, you passed out in one place and woke up somewhere completely different – with no recollection of how you did that. 9. You spent at least one day vowing to “never do THAT again,” and spent a lot of time in the port-a-john. 8. You wondered who everyone …

Brad Daugherty: He looks remarkably like Barack Obama… or is it the other way around? 8. Nextel Sprint: With their customer base now so small, their …
