Murphy was just killin’ time here waiting for the Rolex start, doin’ nuttin’ much, and realized he’s been doin’ nuttin’ much for like a long time. Of course, wit da Braselburgers doin nuttin much lately, he’s gotten a little bored with the whole scene.
He’s been thinkin, how much can you rip the gang that can’t shoot straight before it’s just same ol’ same ol’? Which it has been for a long time. When The Bear launched this thing – way back in 2005 – he was documenting exciting and fun stuff. That started fading about three years later, and the whole damn thing’s turned pretty dark.

Andy Lally is a nice young American driver. In the ALMS he’s driven Porsches and prototypes, the latter including Sebring stints for Dyson Racing. He’s handsome, knowledgeable, friendly, and fast. And he’s a Street Luge champion (that’s really scary, if you think about it). (more…)

Once again the Bear’s got yer back, punters! As in previous years he’ll give you five favorites. The winner will certainly be in there somewhere; he gave you a podium sweep in 2008, two steps in 2009, and the top step in 2010. (Ok, so the trend ain’t all that great, but what the hell, we keep on comin’ back.) The Bear doesn’t keep any secrets from his fans, so for the newbies, here are… (more…)
