Tony Stewart |
He was enraged he lost that race. He went home and kicked the pizza before he ate it. |

He’s going to be a wide-eyed Nextel Cup Series champion. |

Matt Kenseth |
Trouble! Turn 3! Stewart and Newman get together! Newman goes flying into the infield! He hits a motorhome! It’s Rusty’s motorhome! Kenseth comes off Turn 4! Kenseth wins at Loudon! |

Mark Martin |
Man, I have been busy. I didn’t even notice Mark Martin had stolen the Just for Men sponsorship from Michael Waltrip. |

Rusty Wallace |
That was nice of him to let Newman use his Loudon setup. |

Kurt Busch |
That was a pretty entertaining race on Sunday. And it would have been more entertaining if Rodney Childers, Scott Riggs’ crew chief, had grabbed Busch by the ears. |

Brian Vickers |
Are y’all sure someone at the shop didn’t accidentally load the Talladega car? |

Ryan Newman |
He held a pizza box out the window to distract Tony with two to go, but that kind of tactic won’t work at an aero-sensitive track like Talladega. |

Jeremy Mayfield |
He’s got a stranglehold on the coveted 36-to-38-year old fan base. |

That was the first time in his life Kasey Kahne had ever trimmed a shrub. |

Jeff Burton |
Man, he had a good run on Sunday, but again, he didn’t get a lot of camera time. I can almost hear what Ward was saying. “Man, I would call TNT myself to complain – IF my cell phone had service here in the woods!” |

Dale Earnhardt Jr. |
You can almost him hear him on the radio during the whole Robby-Waltrip deal. "Man, will you tell Robby to quit throwing things at my future race cars?!" |

Kasey Kahne |
There is one thing drivers learned from the whole Jimmy Spencer-Kurt Busch thing: You pick on your drivers in your own weight class. |

Elliott Sadler |
If he shaved his head, it would immediately set off a chain reaction of superfluous events that included multiple wins and a $1 million bonus for finishing 11th in the standings. |

Jamie McMurray |
He is getting no attention now that he’s missed the Chase. His car wasn’t on TV at all on Sunday despite a decent run. He should just take next year off and appear on The Surreal Life. |

Joe Nemechek |
I can almost hear what was on TNT’s producers’ minds. "Cut to Joe blaming Bliss for the wreck….whoa! Did Waltrip just take out Robby?!?!" |

Jeff Green |
He’s got eight straight finishes of 25th or better, pulling him within four points of Mike Bliss for 26th in the standings, so Green needs to go out on Sunday and make sure he leads a lap to get those valuable bonus points. |

Dale Jarrett |
Fans can buy the new EA Sports game and drive the actual Big Brown Truck. It won’t make the Chase for the Nextel Cup, but it sure does get in Ryan Newman’s way at Loudon. |

Scott Riggs |
His team didn’t look too scared when Busch entered the pit area. |
