Mick, I didn’t watch a minute of Richmond, I didn’t even know it was Sunday night. I did watch Jr’s show earlier in the week. Listened to his explanation of the last lap, then went and watched the replay. I didn’t think it was nearly as bad as described. The point scoring and “playoff” qualifying definitely needs an adjustment. Dillon could have qualified for the chase while being 32nd in points if not for this decision. That’s bullstuff.


Mickstix:
The sad part is he had the fastest car and was gonna win by 2-3 seconds until (iirc) Stenhouse and Preece wrecked with 2 laps to go. But the restart, crash was overly clownish. Nothing even close to resembling a bump/run. It looked like he was retaliating to being bumped/ran. (which if that was the case I'd not have a problem with it)

Then the 2nd part with Hamlin. It was just too much for Nascar to ignore. They need to make these decisions at the time of the incident though. 4 days later just reinforces what a shit show it's become. But yea, the format encourages that type of Bowman Gray Stadium shit. /


They just need a "clown" rule. Contact has always been a part of Nascar, but not THAT kind of contact, unprovoked. Then his teams radio didn't help matters. lol

@Lil, it's somewhere between Wiff Waff and Tennis. :raspberry: :snicker:

Hot Damn.  Good luck Jake.
Carbs would have definitely been a better coach for Vrana (or any younger guy) back in the day.....at least giving the kid a fair shake
Hope it works for everyone's sake.  But how can they have room for him?  What kind of money will he require?  Caps don't have any cap space.
Actually they are already 10,270,000 over the cap.  We all figure Backy played his last game long ago, so you can subtract 9.9 mil.
Does anyone know the status of Ethan Bear?  he's got a 2m hit, so there's that.  I guess if hes gone, you have about 1.7m to offer Vrana.
Or is Oshie officially on IR?  Does Caps management know more about his status than we do?  And if so...what happens when/if he is ready to come off IR?  Making room for 5.75m is not an easy chore.

Anyway, good luck Jake

Bear is active. I’m assuming Oshie will either not play or spend enough time on IR to clear the cap.


Or, Bear was active. I just checked the team website and everyone is listed except him.
 :huh:
