The Internets: NASCAR, nudity, LaRussa

000000001racing.jpgThanks to Stu for pointing out that NASCAR fans heaved half of all their groceries at Jeff Gordon yesterday, despite Dale Earnhardt’s plea that they instead throw toilet paper. Stay classy, NASCAR.

We’ve been in contact with Paul Paulos recently, and he has indicated he might come back to the commenting fold at some point. In the mean time, RandBall asks a very important question: Was Paul Paulos in the golf cart?

Tony LaRussa is not getting along very well with the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Heaved half their groceries?

Charmin: check
Beer: check
Whiskey: preserved
Varmint what’s for tonight’s vittles: marinatin’ in the glovebox.

Good math, Proprietor.

The triumphant return of Paul Paulos?

It should make Coyote or Super Rookie jump with joy. I forget which one.

Keep up the NASCAR! :D I note 1,598,273 references to Kevin G. and only 10 references to NASCAR in your blog.

Also, the fans at Talladega know what it’s all about when Gordon wins. It’s play “Hit him with your empty beer can” time!

Xana: Those were obviously full beer cans. I thought that was sacrilege in NASCAR country…

Gordon sucks, but is it worth wasting a perfectly good High Life?

Oh wait, “perfectly good High Life” is an oxymoron isn’t it?

I hope you’re not disparaging the champagne of beers.

Dave MN says:

Is it like champagne in the way that I don’t really want it that frequently, and it’s only good if it’s really cold?

Dave MN: You got it wrong. They can be full beer cans as long as it’s not Bud, lest the Red Army sully the sponsorship of their Leader, Dale Jr.

Dave MN says:

Why do they call themselves the “Red Army”…wouldn’t they be more comfortable and proud calling themselves the “Reb Army”?

Communism vs. misguided support of slavery and secession…both losing causes, but you’d think one would convey more “Southern pride” than the other…

Maybe it’s just an honest mistake and the person who founded the Dale Earnhardt Jr. fan club is dyslexic.

Wow, Rand, you must be proud of your reporting brethren there, and the way he stood up to LaRussa, and followed him to the post-game buffet (for a third trip).
