The week that was @ The Marbles: June 16 - 22

By Jay Busbee

Did you miss a day of The Marbles? No sweat, we've got you covered. We're cool like that. Here's what happened:

• We welcomed Robby Gordon to the Marbles for a little chat.

• Hmmm ... were there shenanigans going on in that final lap of Junior's win last week?

• Doesn't matter, because NASCAR had "First Win" t-shirts ready to go.

• NASCAR's got a serious image problem right now. What are you going to do about it?

• We profiled Roush Fenway Racing in this week's State of the Teams.

• So what really happened behind the closed doors of last Friday's secret drivers' meeting?

• Wrap yourself head-to-toe in Jeff Gordon.

• Ryan Newman gets to tear stuff up at the Kennedy Space Center.

• Our Tailgate Trio spotlighted Velvet Revolver, Trace Adkins, and Saliva.

• The Car of Tomorrow: fast, and fast with delivering a piping-hot breakfast, too!

• Watch this, I'll make you click this link: Danica's boobs.

• Dale Jr. and Chris Cooley, BFF.

    I didn't see any cheating. I saw that he had enough gas to go around the track a couple more times...

    There was a time when teams could hide fuel in strange places and have tanks that help more than they should , but those days are gone like it or not when a driver wins he and his crew were good and sometimes lucky, but cheat, no. Im not a great Jr. fan but if you dont like him thats OK but dont accuse him of cheating NASCAR has found very small things and set drivers down and took points away if they had cheated todays inspectors would have found it. Sit back and enjoy the racing and boo those you dont like but be fair as you would like them to be.

    Anyone have any idea when Jeff Gordon reinstated his Florida Driver License--I heard it was suspended some time ago for not having insurance on his Florida registered cars?
