ReplyDeleteDriver Change: dumping Jeffie in the Cup race and going with Bowyer
NICE!!!!! How much did Edwards pay that Jobroni?
ReplyDeleteI'll take Webber in F-1, and dump Kyle's wreckage.
Ditto- the Beagle is also dumping Kyle and the Nationwide for Vettel in F1
ReplyDeleteBOOM! I dunno if I like this new rule of being able to dump drivers/races! LOL I gotta catch up somehow!!
ReplyDeleteKristen- we had the same rule last year for the BYO Trfectas. There is a 5 point penalty for making the change.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER:
Until the Beagle gets her eyesight back, the Trifecta will not be posted until sometime after 5:00pm CDT(her seeing eye typist doesn't get home from work until 5.) Hopefully it won't be too long, but we're not holding our breath :o(.
Nice one, Dwindy :)
ReplyDeleteI appear to be picking the right F1 team, just not the right driver, LOL
Congrats Dwindy! I almost had it...dang that Helio! He needs to concentrate on driving and stop dreaming about dancing the Mambo with me!
ReplyDeleteSB I hope you find your glasses soon!!!
Kristen-
ReplyDeleteI wish I could wear glasses. I lost a $300 contact lens, and between that and the $200 eye exam to get a new prescription, it's probably going to be a while.
Hey everybody!
ReplyDeleteWhat's the one about the old blind squirrel finding an acorn every once in a while?
Kristen... You should be the winner but your love interests keep getting in the way!
SB, hope your vision problems are remedied... Lasik maybe?
tez... Can Vettel win three in a row?
Good job Dwindy! Congratulations on winning from the pole! He was the Matt Kenseth of this Trifecta!
ReplyDeletedwindy- for me, it's either the contact lenses or cornea transplants. The lenses- while expensive- are easier on the wallet.
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Dwindy!!
ReplyDeleteSB... take your time on the posts, we'll wait (:
