Fort Worth, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Michael Waltrip Racing made it official on
Friday that Mark Martin will drive the team's No.00 Toyota in a partial Sprint
Cup Series schedule in 2012 and '13.
Martin and team co-owner Michael Waltrip made the announcement at Texas Motor
Speedway, where the series is running the eighth race in the championship
Chase this weekend.
The 52-year-old Martin will compete in 25 Sprint Cup races each of the next
two seasons. He will make his debut with MWR in the February 26 Daytona 500.
Martin is presently in his third and final year as driver of the No.5
Chevrolet for Hendrick Motorsports. Kasey Kahne is taking over driving duties
of the No.5 car, starting next year.
Martin will join Martin Truex Jr. and recently acquired Clint Bowyer in MWR's
three-car stable next season. Bowyer is leaving Richard Childress Racing at
season's end.
"It's the perfect schedule for me," Martin said. "It gives me an opportunity
to catch my breath and to spend a little bit more time with the fans and with
the sponsors. Hopefully, it will give me a bit more time than I'm able to do
now with the [Hendrick] team. They've given me an opportunity here to
hopefully have an effect on the direction of the program."
Martin also ran a part-time Sprint Cup schedule in 2007 and '08, driving for
Ginn Racing/Dale Earnhardt Inc.
Waltrip will drive the No.00 car in both Talladega races, as well as the July
events at Daytona and Kentucky, which is his home state.
MWR also announced that it has extended its sponsorship agreement with Aaron's
for the next two seasons.
Waltrip said it did not take much convincing for Martin to join the team.
"This whole process from the time it was mentioned to sitting here today has
been less than three weeks, "Waltrip said. "It didn't take a lot of time to
convince Mark. We got a lot of great things going on at Michael Waltrip
Racing. He loves the commitment that Aaron's had made to this sport. It was
kind of an opportunity for him to step back a little bit and refresh his
batteries by running a limited schedule.
MWR plans to run a combination of drivers and sponsor partners to fill the
remaining races when Martin and Waltrip will not be behind the wheel of the
No.00.
David Reutimann is the current driver of the No.00. On Thursday, MWR announced
that Reutimann will not be return to the team for next season.

NFL Football Trash Talk
Trash talk has a place in every competitive endeavor (except baseball; those stirrup-wearers are too busy chewing on their sunflower seeds and their supplements to worry about what their opponents are doing).
Fantasy sports is no exception. Any intelligent discussion of the subject
would probably start with a thesis statement or a definition of terms.
Thankfully, this wont be an intelligent discussion.
Let me just say that I am happy to take a place in this space alongside my talented colleagues, even our commissioner. (You should see how she bleats like a demented paper boy about league fees on our fantasy site).
Trash talking, I would argue, is primarily about amusing your friends,
their sheeplike demeanors and sloping foreheads notwithstanding. The best place I have found for football trash talking is at www.SportsAlarm.com.
Beyond the entertainment factor, though, I would recognize that the
sophomoric ritual has one advantage, when properly applied. It magnifies
your fantasy triumphs and mitigates your fantasy failures by transforming
the eventual point total into an afterthought. Winning makes it seem like
your opponent really is a truss-owning, lapel-pin-wearing nitwit. And in
defeat, trash talk can be the air bag to break the fall from your
hyperbolic heights. The plug-necked yahoos on your team, you can say,
will be sacking groceries by the end of the season.
The best trash talk, in my view, is layered and nuanced. And it doesnt
focus only on your opponents team. It picks apart your opponent. The idea
is to create a shock-and-awe-scale blizzard of nonsense, and the goal is to
make your opponent drop his hands from his keyboard in exasperation.
What team does your opponent root for? Accuse a Giants fan of having a Joe Namath pillowcase. Wheres your opponent from? Give a look of concern no matter his reply, then say, I'll try to type slower for you next time. Is your opponent into politics? Label everyone a tax-and-spend corporate shill.
Cap all that with a liberal application of irrelevance. For instance, dont just conclude by saying your opponent is a twerp who drafts like my grandmother. Say that your opponent is a sweater-wearing, eyebrow-plucking twerp who drafts his team about as well as Zsa Zsa Gabor gave acceptance speeches at the Oscars. By the time your foe makes sense of that, his starting running back will have had puppies.
But what about you? Hmm? Recall a memorable slam? Have a tried-and-true technique? Know someone who seems impervious to insult? Take a moment and tells us about it. Put together some (fit-for-publication) thoughts. You wont be too busy returning phone messages from your friends, Im sure, to reply.
In addition to the trash talking, the Sports Alarm has a huge gallery of high resolution pictures of beautiful women and models in bikinis. The most popular models are: Lindsay Lohan, Carrie Underwood, Alessandra Ambrosio, and Paris Hilton.
