Darlington "News" and Notes

--Jimmie Johnson has been catching heat lately for aggressive driving. Rumors are that if the accusations continue, he might actually show emotion.

--Some are wondering if this could be the final race at Darlington. If so, Nascar PR will have to deal with "The Flack Too Tough to Tame"

--Matt Kenseth has been successful in the Busch Series Darlington races, but has not done as well in Cup races. Is this guy like Mark Martin or what?

--John Andretti's ppc Racing team will be back on the track in the summer. Authorities are searching for anyone who cares about this announcement.

--This marks the first time in almost 20 years that Nascar races on Mother's Day weekend. Mother's Day has traditionally been a much more important day to Nascar than Father's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, or Labor Day. Why? I'd give an answer, but I'd like to stay on speaking terms with MY mom this weekend.

ODDS:
3:2 Kenny Wallace will babble on "Nascar This Morning" about how close he was to winning the Busch Race.
100:1 Brian France will change the track's unofficial nickname to "The Black Lady", then claim Darlington as a part of the Drive for Diversity.
1000:1 I'll go a full weekend without hatemail for that comment.
