I was catching up on some reading last night when I read on my pal Travis' blog that Boris Said will be trying to qualify in to the Cup race in New Hampshire this weekend.

Imagine the smile on my face. That little tidbit of information made my day. I may even have to sport one of those wigs in support of him.

You can bet that I will be ALL over the pits trying to get pictures of him. This is just going to be the coolest thing. It just added a whole new level of excitement for me heading down to NHIS.

Just think about it for a second... He has only had four starts in the Cup series this year. That poor excuse of a driver, Michael Waltrip, has had eight starts and is ONLY 20 points ahead of Said.

I think Teresa Earnhardt should have considered Said the next driver to drive the No. 8 car. People love him. I, for one, would have rooted for him each and every week.

If I had to choose which driver I would want to see in the race between Ward Burton and Boris Said...it would be Boris, hands down. Go Boris!
