Kyle Busch is the most entertaining driver in NASCAR today. I enjoy it when he wins, as he did on Sunday for the fourth time this season. I enjoy it when things go BAD for him, which has not happened much this season. In fact, he has ran every lap in 2008 except for a couple in Bristol (where he finished 17th) and he finished 38th at Martinsville after missing 57 laps there. Of the nine races he did not win, he was in the Top Five in five and no worse than 11th in 11. Notice the nice symmetry there? I don't even have to mention those four Nationwide wins and two Craftsman truck victories. Maybe it is all about him. Sprint Cup, by butt. This has become the new Busch series.

Dover consisted of 400 laps, but the UGLY highlight took place just 16 in. Elliott Sadler cut down to the inside only to discover David Gilliland there. BAD move. Sadler's Dodge got bounced to the wall, then came to rest right in front of the field to become the Best Buy pinata. Tony Stewart smoked the sucker first, then Denny Hamlin flew in to the wreckage as though brakes were optional on his beast. Scott Riggs managed to get himself a piece of Sadler before Bill Elliott clipped him on the way by. Dale Earnhardt Jr and Kevin Harvick missed Sadler, but got caught up just the same. Soon, fans were moving to their backup drivers.

Only six cars were left on the lead lap when they wrapped things up. Jeff Burton, who finished a lap down in 8th, was not among them. Then again, he is GOOD enough to remain the only driver who has ran every lap, but one. Busch and Burton continue to lead the points parade, with Junior next. Carl Edwards and Matt Kenseth, who finished second and third at Dover, round out the top five. The Hendrick duo of Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson, along with Clint Bowyer and Denny Hamlin, remain solidly in the Chase.

Then things get interesting. Harvick, Stewart, and Kasey Kahne are in the Chase, but by less than a hundred points. The GOOD news for David Ragan, Ryan Newman, Martin Truex Jr, and Matt Kenseth is that they are within a hundred of getting in. Maybe this is why we watch week after week.

Okay, maybe my condemnation of last week's event was unfair. Maybe it wasn't boring. Maybe I'm the tooth fairy. I did a little research to figure out what others thought was the most boring track. The top two answers were Pocono and Michigan. Bloody great! Guess what the next two events are on the calender. That can't be GOOD.

You might have noticed that I've shortened this up just a bit this week. Maybe GOOD news for you, but in an hour I'm going to jump on a bus (I rarely take the bus, so Lord knows where I'll wind up) to visit a dentist to have a gold-capped tooth removed. No, it did not come that way naturally. Tomorrow, just for fun, I'm going to get a filling in the tooth directly above the newly formed void. Getting teeth fixed or pulled. It is like reliving that Dover race all over again.
