    Ask them how the Chase for the Cup went for Shrub.

    Meanwhile, nice to see that AP has more on the ball than SI. Not that that should be a surprise, mind you.

    Bolt should have won, easily.

    Utter bullshit.

    When success is determined mostly by your equipment (car), you should have no shot.

    Agree with Simon. Be honest, did Jimmie win it, or did a bunch of metal parts bolted together and greased by oil win it?

    Put any other human being in the car. If the same result occurs, you have a point.

    If, as is much more likely, the same result does not occur ... hmmm, Simon's wrong again.

    I want to find the two people who voted for Favre and punch them.

    Guess that only means Jimmie is a better driver. I hope his car insurance rates reflect as much. But driving still isn't a sport.

    By this logic, I think Calvin Borel was actually a better choice. What did Johnson do that was so much better than Borel?

    Much more likely?

    So the three other guys running the same equipment that *didn't* win the championship? That doesn't count for anything?
