Hard to believe it, but we will be 25% of the way through the season after this race.

Have they booked Sasquatch to give the command? Has it been determined if he speaks English.

Will Sasquatcha shave her legs for this, it will be kinda of weird if she shaves her legs and leaves the other parts full.

The National Enquirer has reported that to be the typical red carpet style of choice for her.

It would be weird if she didn't leave the other parts full. :cool:
 
Ross Chastain's block on the leaders cost me dearly. I was originally going to go with Custer, but I'll have to settle for a 24th place finish.
 
Congratulations to @ToyYoda, the recipient of the "Highest Finishing Pick" award following the first place finish of his pick, Austin Cindric, in the Jack's Links 500 at Talladega Superspeedway.

That makes it seven consecutive races that someone has picked the race winner with two of those seven coming from @ToyYoda.

The top of the leader remained in the hands of @kkfan91 who uses the unique, worry-free method of making driver picks by submitting his entire list of drivers prior to the first race of the season.

At ten races into the race season his ouija board method of participation in the game has resulted in his picks having an average finish of just over 12th place.

Talladega being Talladega resulted in quite a shake-up in the standings highlighted by @ToyYoda snagging the "Highest Finishing Pick" award with an upward movement of eight spots into a Top Five position in the standings.

The seldom awarded "Hard Luck" award was dusted off and presented to @DanicaFreak following the disqualification of his pick, second place finisher Ryan Preece.

The 36 point difference between Preece having a 2nd place finish and a 38th place finish meant that instead of sitting comfortably atop the leader board @DanicaFreak sits in 6th place, 25 points behind the leader.

Finally, the "Slipping & Sliding" award was taken by @REBS31 thanks to the 33rd place finish by his pick, BJ McLeod, which caused him to drop eight spots and out of the Top 10 in the standings.

If @kkfan91 wins with his first name, alphabetical matching strategy, he will officially prove that this game is all luck. Even with me picking all my picks at the beginning of the season last year, I barely managed a top 20 finish. And there was actually thought behind those picks. Now, my cat is making my picks and we have cracked the top 10? This game is weird. 😂
 
I've been making my picks week by week, while putting some thought into them. The result? I'm having one of my worst seasons in this game.

Most seasons, I just submit all my picks at once to start the year. It proves that this game requires some luck.

Kudos to @kkfan91 for his amazing campaign. I've seen him struggle in this game in previous years.
