Bristol “News” and Notes


—Unfortunately, it’s looking like this weekend is the best chance yet for Rain to qualify for the Chase.

The REAL Phil Mor(ris)
—Bill Goldberg is doing driver intros on Sunday.  No word on if Hugh Morrus will be introducing him.

—Michael Annett’s car will be advertising Pilot’s “PhilMor” coffee program this weekend.  Over/under on the number of “Call for Phillip Morris” jokes that nobody gets is at 3.5.

—Ray Evernham is joining NBCSports?  Hide your daughters!  Seriously.


—Sure, Dale’s Pale Ale is sponsoring JR Motorsports, but unless Dale Jarrett brings back HIS team, who else were they gonna sponsor?
