Trying to pick the winner of the Daytona 500 is an exercise in folly but why not give it a shot! It is always a crap-shoot as to who’ll have the best power, best timing and who’ll stay out of The Big One. This year should be even wilder with the increase in horsepower thanks a little larger restrictor plate and better downforce on the cars.

I think a lot of it will come down to who can be aggressive and smart at the same time. Who can take advantage of the power and make some moves like Kevin Harvick did in the Bud Shoot-Out and maybe put some slide-jobs on some people like Juan Pablo Montoya did the other day in the Duels.  So, that of course rules out Kyle Busch. . .

My Picks

By the way, I’m rooting for Tony Stewart of course, but in order not to jinx him I’m not going to pick him to win.

  1. Kevin Harvick
    He’s looked racy since last week, he’s hungry and he’s obviously got some serious power in the 29.
  2. Dale Earnhardt Jr
    He is a part of Hendrick Motor Sports still, right? Surely this he can make it work this year.
  3. Jeff Gordon
    Why not?
  4. Tony Stewart
    A trip to Victory Lane on Saturday should give him even more confidence.
  5. Kasey Kahne
    I love the way he’s driving right now. Richard Petty should be proud.

Ok, those are my picks, now get yours in and let’s see how we do. If you happen to nail the winner correctly I’ll get you set-up with some free Domino’s Pizza, the Official Pizza of The Williams and Hyatt Show!

Good luck,

Hyatt

  1. I’m still not buying into the idea that LP&L should have bought out Excel Energy. I really don’t think the citizens of Lubbock want the City buying out private business, eliminating competition and doing it all without voter review. That Mayor Tom Martin and others are doing a full-court press trying to spin how great an idea this is after the fact reminds me of how the Obama Administration tells me Health Care reform is really good and that I’m just too stupid to understand and that I just need more “education” on the matter. We’ll see.
  2. The Flatlanders are back in the Hubbaplex Saturday night at The Cactus Theater. It goes without saying, but if you haven’t seen them you need to. Living, breathing Lubbock musical history and talent.
  3. OSU’s Dez Bryant is entering the NFL draft. Shocker. Wonder if Eugene Parker will be his agent? Something still doesn’t smell right on this story. If all he did was “lie” to the NCAA I can’t see how that should be a full-year suspension while programs like USC and others wait years and years for “justice”. Right. The NCAA needs to come out with more on this story for me to believe it is justified in the punishment.
  4. It is sad that college football player Brandon Spikes of Florida has more maturity and integrity than his head coach Urban Meyer, the SEC Commissioner and anyone else associated with his program. Spikes has extended his suspension from one half against Vandy to the full-game for trying to gouge the eyes of a Georgia player. Urban Meyer has no code. He’ll fit in well at Notre Dame soon.
  5. I’ll take the #14 to win at Texas this weekend. Just so long as it isn’t a repeat for the #24 I’ll be a happy man getting back on the RV late Sunday.

MORE LATER
