Where did he get that?

4:58 PM
Banner seen flying half-mast above Stewart's hauler: "The beatings will continue until morale improves." Stewart bought the banner last year sometime, but I've never seen it actually flying above his hauler.

Stewart bought the flag in San Fran. a few days before last year's Sonoma race. Smoke went on to win the Sonoma race and the rest is history. The team considered the flag to be good luck and was flown on the pit box.

Hey Smithson,

It's been on the pit box all year!

I believe the banner was bought last year (or the year before) in San Francisco, when Tony was at Pier 39.

Banner guaranteed to be shown on TV:

"DW for Governor!"

It's really to bad that when people are speaking of the flag, be it the US or sports flags, that when they are flown at half staff, it means that they are being flown on land. Half mast means they are being flown over water. So that is the lesson for today Ryan, Staff:land Mast:water. Got it? Good

Is that supposed to be funny? I wouldn't be surprised if there was some truth behind it-given his record in the past about his temper...

I was going to give Tony mine which I got in St. Thomas, but I knew he wouldn't take it as my BBQ sauce puts his to shame.
