Five months ago Kevin Harvick was on the verge of jumping ship. Now he's close to leaping onto the stage at the Waldorf-Astoria as NASCAR's Nextel Cup champion. With his contract coming to an end after a seven-year relationship with Richard Childress Racing, Harvick was the most sought-after driver for the start-up Toyota teams -- and, for that matter, any top team.

OK...I have to admit that I don't know anything about Nascar. All I know is Dale Earnhardt. When I think of Nascar, his name just pops up into my head. I'm open to learning about all things so I won't form any opinions about car racing, or whatever. I just don't understand it now. I mean, what's the big deal about people wrecklessly driving around a track? That ish is dangerous! When I haul ass in my car, I get a ticket BUT these people do it and get paid. AND not only that, they get the title of 'athlete.' I just get the title of 'speed demon' and my broke ass is left with a ticket to pay. Either way, that's the beauty of America. We will call ANYTHING a sport, and ANYBODY an athlete. If I happen I get pulled over for speeding again, I'll just tell Officer Pig that I'm training for the Daytona 500.
