It was a pretty rough go for ol’ Uncle Max last weekend in Nascar, but I’m rolling in fantasy football! I have 3-0 records in both of my leagues (one for people at work, one for my long-time fantasy football buddies), both of which I myself run. I have quite a few championships to my name, but I’ve never won two in the same year—here’s hoping things change in 2018!
Meanwhile, my nephew Mike has told me he’ll be away for this weekend attending the Cup race in person. I’ve never been to a race myself, but I’d love to next year (I doubt it’ll happen this year due to my work schedule). If I can swing it in 2019, what track should I go to?
Xfinity Series Drive for the Cure 200 (5 wins)—Justin Allgaier: Sneaky-good on the road courses.
Cup Series Bank of America Roval 400—MYSTERY PICKER (4 wins) PICKS Martin Truex Jr. Favorite (4 wins): Kyle Busch—nothing like a run by Brad K to get Rowdy’s competitive juices flowing. Next Favorite (5 wins): Kevin Harvick—and watch for NBC to hype about all the “pressure” he’s under. Dark Horse: AJ Allmendinger—why not?
