Kentucky "News" and Notes



--Its nice to see Richard Childress adding fuel to the fire of whether or not he'll run the #3 next season, aka The Biggest Non-Story of the Season.

--Alyssa Milano's "Touch" line of branded sportswear will launch soon, featuring nine of Nascar's top drivers (and Danica Patrick).

--Its nice that RPM locked up GoBowling.com to sponsor the 43 car at Pocono, but this will only draw attention to the ongoing Candlepin vs. Duckpin holy war that's been raging in the northeast for decades.

--For the first time since the end of the 1992 season, Bobby Labonte will not be entered in a Cup race.  After watching the race at home--and seeing those incessant AT&T kids commercials--I bet he'll be back the following week no matter what.

--Similarly, this will be the first weekend in many years that Todd Bodine doesn't attempt the Truck Series race (having been replaced by Brett Moffitt).  Todd's a lot like Bobby Labonte, except that he's bald and nobody likes him.
