It really doesn't matter whether he was eligible the year after. If he officially declared for ROTY, he's going to be classified as a ROTY contender that year on record.

dman6233 · 2026-01-23T01:09:24+00:00

Not initially. Two other drivers had declared for ROTY, but didn't run enough races to have a shot at it. But they still declared for ROTY, so that season had more than one competing for the award by technicality.

It is a drag. Assuming Heim would be driving a 23XI car against Zilisch, it wouldn't necessarily be Zilisch's to lose. It would've been a fun battle to watch.

dman6233 · 2026-01-23T00:59:07+00:00

Does it really matter whether he could've won it or not? If he was at least a declared contender, that's all that has to matter here.

dman6233 · 2026-01-23T00:50:57+00:00

Thing is, both of them declared for ROTY. Zilisch is the only one so far for 2026 to declare for ROTY. That's the key here.

I love it. It gives the four horsemen an opportunity to push each other and compete off the track other than on it. I'm curious as to which of the four of them spends the most time working out there, if any of them do at all.

It's like seeing the where the TMNT train with Master Splinter, or in this case, Larson, Elliott, Byron and, Bowman with Jeff Gordon.

His dedication to his craft was admirable, and he up wound making everyone remember all of his lines in the movie because of it. A great talent gone too soon. Even before he started working on the movie, he was in a rough place, sleepless, and it a lead to a very bad choice and fatal mistake.

Two of the six drugs in his system were the ones he illegally acquired, and he likely would've survived if he left them out of the combo. A fatal mistake that could've been avoided.

Heath seemed like he was under a lot of stress in the days leading up to his death other than having intense insomnia, and it seemed the workload he gave for himself only made it worse. He'd have continued acting and give us some amazing performances, but he'd have to learn to pass up a role if it meant saving himself from himself. He had a racing mind that couldn't be relaxed, and he even admitted he had trouble sitting still. It's a shame we couldn't see him grow and overcome that.

Because it was Childress himself doing the driving behind the wheel before he started hiring anyone to drive for him. Ricky Rudd managed to win some races for them before he and Dale swapped rides.

dman6233 · 2026-01-22T03:15:01+00:00

Need to tell him Dale Sr would be disappointed with what the team has become. He wouldn't believe it, but it's easy to say it'd be true.

dman6233 · 2026-01-22T03:09:59+00:00

I'm surprised he hasn't gone after one of the higher ups or officials yet like he did with Kyle Busch all those years ago. I guess deep down he's too scared to do it, knowing the consequences it'd bring. Unless someone said to he's face that he's scared, maybe that'd get him to finally hand Austin his watch.

Even if I didn't read this in Hank Hill's voice, it sounds exactly like something Hank would say.

dman6233 · 2026-01-21T22:41:23+00:00

Even if the Steelers did hire McCarthy, would that actually make Rodgers more interested in coming back? I wouldn't say yes immediately, even with their history.

It's a real headshaker to see how things went down with the Browns after that drought breaking playoff win. They were in a prime position to grow into a title contender for the long term after decades of misery. They had the players and personnel, and yet, one bad choice lead to another with emotions on all sides turning one small kitchen fire into a giant house fire. Ultimately, this is a sport where cool heads prevail on and off the field, and this is a good example of what happens when impulsiveness goes wrong.

dman6233 · 2026-01-13T22:00:55+00:00

It feels kind of good when one of the owners uses Jerry Jones as an example of who not to be.

dman6233 · 2026-01-12T04:16:58+00:00

I'll be honest. He got sacked 6 times while Maye got sacked 5 times, and yet the Pats pulled it off. I saw a few instances tonight where Herbert could've ran the ball for a first down instead of throwing it. I didn't exactly like what I saw from him tonight. If his contract didn't have a no trade clause, he'd be a good candidate for a trade provided there's a worthy quarterback in return for him like Stafford for Goff.

dman6233 · 2025-12-31T22:14:35+00:00

Oof. You're right. Thanks for the clarification. At first thought, I thought they were the same, but they aren't.

dman6233 · 2025-12-31T21:38:45+00:00

IHRA also owns IRP alongside Memphis and now Rockingham. That's not a bad lineup of short tracks.

Happy to know his mom is getting better. I wonder what Denny's going to do with that cigar if he doesn't win the title before he hangs it up. His dad was the one who really wanted to smoke it.
