As you get ready for Sunday's Auto Club 500, here are some links for you to peruse.
Spoiler alert: Imagine what would happen in fantasy football if the NFL announced that this fall wide receivers would be allowed to wear a certain type of glove in the early part of the season, but sometime in mid-October they would have to switch to another type of glove.
That's what happening in NASCAR. The same league that adopted a new green-white-checkered rule days before the Daytona 500 is "transitioning" the Sprint Cup cars from a rear fin to a rear spoiler. What do the drivers think? Here's Jeff Burton's take: "I’m in the minority in this, but I believe that when the spoiler comes, it’s going to be a new ballgame. I just think that’s a major change and a major difference and some people are going to adapt to that quicker than others."
It's official...you can have fantasy anything. There are those who think fantasy auto racing is a bit--how to put this--out there. And if you've read this far in this blog, you probably already know about fantasy football, fantasy baseball, fantasy basketball, fantasy hockey and fantasy soccer.
Now, can we interest you in fantasy fishing?
The weekly reminder that we cover fantasy football, too. Last week we told you about the Sporting News releasing its lists of top NFL players by position for next year. But why limit your offseason thoughts to players already collecting a National Football League salary? Our friends at Bleacher Report offer us the results of "our last mock draft until after the combine." That's a major commitment on their part: The NFL Scouting Combine will begin Wednesday.
We'll be back with results from the Auto Club 500. Until then, enjoy the race, and remember to root for the members of the People's Pitstop.
