The AL Central proved to be very competitive down the stretch in the truncated 2020 MLB season. Three legitimate playoff teams vied for the division - Minnesota, Chicago, and Cleveland - with just a single game separating them in the end. It took a 16-8 surge from the Twins to…

The defending Cup Series Champion Kyle Busch was dismissed from the 2020 NASCAR Playoffs along with three other playoff drivers at the Roval last weekend. A wet start ended in a decisive victory by - you guessed it - Chase Elliott. Elliott answered any remaining questions about his road course…

Fives races are in the books and five remain in the 2020 NASCAR Playoffs. Classic tracks, Las Vegas, Talladega, and now the Charlotte Roval. This hybrid track will axe four drivers from the postseason, leaving just eight teams fighting for the Cup Series Championship. Who survives elimination at the Charlotte…

One of the least likely contenders advanced to the Round of 8 last weekend by automatic bid. Kurt Busch returned to his home town of Las Vegas and proved that every playoff driver is alive if there's a race to be won. It's been The Outlaw's worst track until he…

And then there was one. Only one automatic bid to the 2020 NASCAR Playoffs remains after an unusual season on the Cup Series circuit. After the COVID hiatus this spring, we've been treated to mid-week races, weekend doubleheaders, and a new venue in the Daytona Road Course. The postseason came…
The NASCAR Cup Series returns to a familiar track at Dover's Monster Mile this weekend. I am also back after a long road trip of my own through the heart of stock car racing. While I was away, Chase Elliott took down NASCAR's inaugural race on the Daytona Road Course…
It is often said that invention is the mother of necessity. NASCAR responded to the COVID curveball by scheduling mid-week races and weekend doubleheaders. With just six races to go before the playoffs, things look positive for completing the 2020 Cup season. This weekend, Michigan International Speedway hosts the FireKeepers…
It seems like an eternity since the Cup Series last raced. Last week's race at Kansas combined with MLB's Opening Night for a long-awaited sports overload. NASCAR gave the big boys the weekend off, so you know they're chomping at the bit to get back on the track. And so…
Whoever's idea it was to schedule these mid-week Cup Series races deserves a big pat on the back and a case of Busch beer. These night races have been a fantastic addition to the schedule, regardless of whether they are driven by COVID or not. The Cup Series now heads…
Things are looking up in the NASCAR world. Last weekend, Kentucky's Quaker State 400 fired up without a weather delay and ended a rookie crossing the line in first. Wednesday night's All-Star Race at Bristol was a spectacle for sore eyes with fireworks, underlighting for the cars, and 30,000 people…
The Summer of NASCAR heads to the land of thoroughbred horses and bourbon whiskey after visiting the Tricky Triangle and the hallowed ground of Indy. There is no doubt that last Sunday's rendition of the Brickyard 400 was a little more "exciting" than in previous years. You had a pit…
2020 is a year of change for the NASCAR Cup Series in many respects, one of which is front and center this weekend. For the last two years, Indianapolis Motor Speedway hosted the final race before the postseason. This year, the traditional July 4th weekend race at Daytona is now…
Talladega. Must I say more? Mother Nature's lack of southern hospitality pushed Sunday's race into Monday. After waiting out another obligatory weather delay, we were rewarded by an evening of heart-pounding action. Ryan Blaney scored back-to-back wins at Talladega - both by a minuscule 0.007-second differential. Blaney, obviously affected by…
Good things come to those who wait. Mother Nature tested our patience with several hours of delays before delivering uninterrupted racing at Homestead-Miami. There's no mid-week Cup race in the meantime, so all eyes are on the 2020 GEICO 500 at Talladega Superspeedway. Buckle up because this race is going…
After 18 years of hosting the NASCAR Cup Championship race, Homestead Speedway is now home to a mid-season 400-mile contest. At this point in the sports landscape, that suits me just fine. Miami may no longer be the center of a season-ending celebration, but plenty of eyes will be focused…
Atlanta gave us a clean race on Sunday with a ton of green flag laps. Happy Harvick walked away with the checkered flag for the second time this season and the second time at Atlanta in three years. The hot rods took over the race and held on, as you…
It was Bristol Baby! Brad Keselowski positioned himself advantageously and parlayed Chase Elliott's miscue into another Sunday win. Now NASCAR circles back to where it left off in March for the Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500 at Atlanta Motor Speedway. Let's see if the boys can keep the action hot.…
The whirlwind that is the 2020 NASCAR schedule takes us next to Blue Ridge Mountains for a Battle at Bristol. Charlotte treated us to a spectacular Memorial Day weekend Coca-Cola 600 and a rain-delayed 311-mile sprint on Thursday. Brad Keselowski won his first 600 and Chase Elliott pulled away with…
NASCAR's return has been nothing short of electric. Darlington's first race was action-packed and the mid-week encore was as tense as it gets, with rain was looming. Then Kyle Busch clipped Chase Elliott and sent him spinning into the wall. Sunday's thrilling Coca-Cola 600 was a fitting Memorial Day weekend…
Memorial Day can mean many things for Americans, but most important is commemorating our fallen military. A lot of traditions have grown up around the long weekend: time with friends and family, cookouts, camping, and (usually for me) catching a baseball game. For us race fans, Sunday means the Indy…
Sunday's action at The Lady in Black was fast, furious, and long-awaited. Ricky Stenhouse, Jr. started off as only he could by hitting the wall then shedding flames on his way to the garage - all before completing a single lap. Later, Jimmie Johnson ruined his own day with an…
It's been one hell of a wait, but we're a couple days away from green flag racing at the track that's Too Tough to Tame. We've had more than enough time to dig into the pair of upcoming NASCAR Cup Series races and our betting card is just about filled.…
In case you missed the news, NASCAR is back in full force. The Cup Series may have missed a couple months, but the nation has a need for speed and NASCAR is delivering. Four Cup races will run over an eleven-day stretch at Darlington Raceway and Charlotte Motor Speedway. Our…
I'll start by saying how competitive and entertaining the young 2020 NASCAR Cup Series season has been. Daytona - what can you say about that? Vegas - late caution forces a 2-lap sprint. Fontana - a huge, bumpy track made for flat-out racing. Three races into the season and the…
