Old guys

Tony Stewart gets hurt? Just call Ricky Rudd, 49, who will qualify Stewart's car and probably drive it a long way Sunday.

Kyle Busch gets out of line? Another 49-year-old, Rusty Wallace, suggests a spanking: "He needs somebody to kick his @ss. ... If I had been there I'd have stopped, backed up and got out of the car, and smacked Busch's face off. Then I would have gotten back in the car and took off."

My money's on the two soon-to-be-50 guys, and not just because I'm closer in age to them than to Baby Brother Busch. Rudd has four wins and four poles at Dover, and there's no reason to think he can put a good ride in the top 25 or so.

And Wallace? I think he's mean enough to take Kyle and what's-his-name, the older brother, who will have to take a boat and not a car to his own wedding in July. Which, if Casey Mears is invited, is probably a good thing for the entire wedding party.

I'm with Rusty. Baby Busch didn't get enough spankings when he grew up, obviously,and needs his rear end kicked. Way too big of a head. Must be a genetic flaw.
I am sick about Tony's injury, glad he will be ok but...who else better to drive for him. The Ironman can drive Dover and turn it into real Magic.
ROFLAO on the Big Brother's wedding ride. If I were Eva he'd be singing "Sittin on the dock of the bay" all alone...afer it's built.
