Aflac car was the one to beat
As my wife & I watched yesterday’s NASCAR race in Atlanta, we were saddened by the misfortune of Carl Edward’s loss of the race due to mechanical problems. It looked like he had the race “in the bag.” What a huge disappointment it must have been for him, his team, and his fans, to lose the race after such a valiant effort he made throughout the race to keep getting into the leading position. We are glad that he is safe, however, to race another day.
My wife was also very surprised, later in the race, to hear Tony Stewart and Dale Earnhardt Jr criticizing race sponsor Goodyear’s tires! I knew that Tony Stewart has been a long time critic of Goodyear tires, but my wife was shocked to hear a driver criticize one of the race’s sponsors! We can’t imagine that kind of bad press makes Goodyear too happy!
