Live-bloggin' the 500

Well, we haven't been updating in awhile, but thats because we have real work to do. Anyway, Kyle Busch was taken out after Dale Jr. wrecked Brian Vickers who in turn took out the 18. I hate Dale Jr.

Back and we have a new leader, Kyle Busch's ex-teammate Tony Stewart is now in first.

'Nother yellow flag, for what I'm not sure, for all two of y'all reading, you're gonna have to wait while I go clog my arteries at Five Guys.

As I was trying to come up with stuff that geriatrics like, cops reporter Adam Clark suggested that NASCAR should have an old-timers tour. A brilliant idea, I must say.

98-year-old Mark Martin, driving the No. 5 Ensure Oldsmobile, (not his real sponsor or car) is somehow in second place behind Kyle.

I'm being ridiculed here in the office. Icers' writer Patrick McDermott and Web guru Ian Brown suggest that I write "Martin Truex Jr. turns left, Casey Mears turns left, etc." I'll ignore those city folks.

Well, hot damn, we got our first yeller as the No. 8 (not Dale Jr.) spins out.

The race is underway and Kyle Busch takes his usual spot on the track -- first place.

What a wonderful day it is for America. That's right, the NASCAR Sprint Cup season starts today with the Daytona 500.

Much to the dismay of vegan Kevin Zitzman, we're gonna live-blog this thing today. There's no sound on the TV in the office, so we can't hear this.

Myself, along with T. Wayne Johnson were the brainchild behind the Collegian Fantasy NASCAR league, titled the Winston Cup.

I have Kevin Harvick, Denny Hamlin, Kurt Busch and Terry Labonte as my drivers. I'm saving the greatest NASCAR driver in the history of the sport, Kyle Busch, for the home stretch.

Yahoo! says that the start of the race may be delayed because of rain, and with that, we'll be back.
