My Thoughts and Ramblings...
Watkins Glen
Hey everyone! Sorry for the week off at Richmond. Unfortunately, I was out of town and unable to watch the race.
Anwhoo, hope everyone had a safe and happy Fourth of July! I had a blast last night hanging out with friends and was super ready for all the sports events on today: Wimbledon Men's Singles Finals with Andy Roddick and Roger Federer (poor Andy for the loss, he played a good match today!) and, of course, Indycar @ Watkins Glen!!
I think we all need to give congrats to Justin Wilson for pulling out the win today! Finally seeing someone win other than a Penske or Ganassi is great!
Also, congrats to MA for pulling out a top 5 finish. Unfortunately, I didn't see the contact with Viso early on in the race (I'll have to go find a replay of it on Indycar.com), but what a rough break. He was down a lap for awhile and then pretty much came out of nowhere in the last 10 laps or so. He made some great fuel milage and moved up to 6th, and finally got Mike Conway on the last lap for 5th. Yay!
On another note, hopefully TK can turn some of this bad luck around. Jeesh, we haven't seen much of him all season. Super disappointing. C'mon Team 7-11!!! Marco is now ahead of TK in the points championship. Wasn't expecting that this season. I thought it'd be his year, but after some major crashes/dnfs, they really need to step things up.
On to Torontooooo!

In His Own Words
Marco Andretti: It's easy to get down on the season we had, especially with the way it ended in Homestead, but it's over with and we can't go back. So that leaves us with having to find the good and learn from where we've been.
We didn't win races, but out of 17 starts we had 11 top-10 finishes. We finished eighth in the points - still inside the top 10. It wasn't a great season, but made we progress throughout the year.
It was a frustrating season, for sure, and it was… Continue

Motor oil runs in Andretti family's veins
At the Andretti family resort, the members of a clan synonymous with speed enjoy no end of high-revving recreational choices.
There's a circa-1971 racing boat that Mario Andretti, the patriarch and motor-racing legend, has clocked at a top speed of 210 km/h. There are four-wheel off-road vehicles, motocross racers and jet-skis, a water-skiing boat and more.
And when winter falls… Continue

Teammates Andretti, Patrick insist they're at peace despite rumours
WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. — Marco Andretti smiled at the question.
Sure, there might have been a few hard feelings aimed at Andretti Green Racing teammate Danica Patrick after Saturday night's race at Texas Motor Speedway, but they already were forgotten.
"I just said what I was feeling," Andretti said Tuesday during a break in IndyCar testing at Watkins Glen International. "I was frustrated. But we talked it out. It's not the first time it's happened and it's… Continue

Marco Andretti tries to avoid another close shave at Texas Motor Speedway
The Andretti name opens a lot of garage doors.
The latest benefactor is 22-year-old Marco Andretti, carrying the family baton now in his fourth year of IndyCar Racing.
Marco brings to open-wheel racing a familiar name and a fresh face ... uh, a Gillette Fusion-smooth face, if you believe the latest TV commercials in which he appears.
The 30-second spot was originally produced for Russian and Canadian market distribution, but has since taken a circui… Continue

I'm hoping you had a good Thanksgiving. I watched the last game. This pain won't go away until next season. Hope all is good with your classes.
M.C.
Ugh!
M.C.
How are you? Just checking in. We were so close today. It's gotta get better.
M.C.
I just have one word. . . Toledo?!?!
I'm still sore,
:-(
M.C.
I know, huh? I thinking the same thing. I saw some of the USC vs Ohio State. I wonder how we're gonna do with them as well.
Let's hope our team can finds bright spot in the season. Last Saturday's lost . . . still hurts. Notre Dame?!?! Geez!
Big bucks. . . no whammies!
:-(

Ouch! To Notre Dame! Geez! What does the remainder of the year hold for us! I'm still hurting.
Crying in my wine,
M.C'
I will not be able to attend any games this year. :-( I watch them on t.v. every chance I get. I have a Michigan flag hanging in my kitchen window.
I have money on Saturday's game with a co-worker.
Just love the Wolverines!
M.C.
I totally understand how you feel. We will continue to do better. The next game is on television. Were you able to score any tickets for any home games this year?
I just know we can, I just know we can, I just know we can!
:-)
M.C.
I was totally heartbroken. But it's still early. Whether we're a new team, with a new coach I really believe we can overcome and have a good year.
I'll be glued to the television for every game that's on.
I think we can! I think we can! I think we can!
May the force be with us.
:-)
Pamela
