Flippin' out

Congrats to Backflip Boy Carl Edwards, who smoked the field Sunday to win the Pocono 5000. (Er, Pocono 500. It just felt like 5,000 laps.)

Speaking of smoking, what was up with all of the blown tires yesterday? Expect the usual this week: Drivers (except for Edwards, of course) and crew chiefs will blame Goodyear, and Goodyear will respond by saying the tires work fine if the teams don't abuse them. That back-n-forth is as predictable as a Roush/Hendrick win. The count's up to 12 now (in 14 races).
