Johnson vs. Johnson
3:18 PM
One Jimmie Johnson in the garage at Homestead-Miami Speedway is looking for his first championship on Sunday. The other Jimmy Johnson making the rounds already has three.
The former Miami Hurricanes and Dallas Cowboys coach was wearing a purple Crown Royal shirt and signing autographs in front of Jamie McMurray's hauler while the Nextel Cup points leader circled the 1.5-mile track in practice.
Johnson with a "y" won a national championship with the Hurricanes in 1987 and consecutive Super Bowls with the Cowboys in 1992 and '93. Johnson with an "ie" has been a bridesmaid twice.
There's no confusing the two outside of their names, although neither had a hair out of place.
