NASCAR Picks of the Week - 2022 - Talladega #1

Gentlemen,
     This week the racers head to Talladega.  And you know what that means.
     Any driver can win, and any driver can be the 1st Out.  Sooo much fun!
     It will be very fast, great weather (if it doesn't rain) and a lot of aggressive drivers. 
     7 of the Top 12 Drivers already have wins, so will they hold back, or push hard to keep another driver from winning?
     Good Luck this week.
  
Here's Your Top 12:
 
1.  Chase Elliott                                                    7.  Martin Truex, Jr. *
2.  Ryan Blaney                                                    8.  Ross Chastain *
3.  Joey Logano                                                    9.  Kyle Larson *
4,  William Byron **                                            10.  Chase Briscoe*
5.  Alex Bowman *                                              11.  Tyler Reddick
6.  Kyle Busch *                                                  12.  Aric Almirola

Gentlemen,
     My Opinion:  I did not like that race.  Very little action (except for crashes) and then a 4 lap sprint at the end.
     We had one person come closest to picking the winner.  That was Timachro, picking: Kyle Larson
     We had Two people pick the best Long Shot,  They were:  Bloody Hand and Me, picking:  Bubba Wallace.
     And we had two people come closest to picking the best 1st Out.  They were: Hendey lathe and Fishin' Coyote, picking:  Greg Biffle.
     And congratulations got out to this weeks Best Picker, and NASCAR God of the Week: Fishin' Coyote!  With a very good 62 Points.
     Congratulations!  !
     Also, we didn't have anyone in negative numbers.  (But I tried)
 
Here's How We Scored:
 
1.  Fishin' Coyote ****************************************************  62
2.  Bloody Hand ****************************************************  60
3.  Timachro ********************************************  48
4.  Dano *****************************************  38
5.  Wood Nickle *****************************  31
6.  Bigfoot *******************************  29
7.  Hendey Lathe *************************  28
8.  Indsguiz ********************  20
 
Congratulations again to Fishin' Coyote.  And Thank You for Playing.
 

I agree Jack
Boring race when all the cars are so equally matched and all able to hug the yellow line, even on old tires.
