In the latest edition, he walks us through a disappointing night at Charlotte and discusses how a rough first half of the Chase has the No. 99 team switching up its championship strategy for the final five weeks. Plus, in the wake of some exciting news he tells us all about his wife's pregnancy, what it feels like to be an expectant father for the first time, and more.Fri, 23 Oct 2009 22:11:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/lars_anderson/10/18/charlotte.five.things/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/lars_anderson/10/18/charlotte.five.things/index.htmlFive things we learned on a cold, winter-like Saturday night at Lowe's Motor Speedway in Charlotte in race No. 5 of the 2009 Chase:Sun, 18 Oct 2009 18:40:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/fantasy/10/16/racing/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/fantasy/10/16/racing/index.htmlIn a week where the inaugural class of NASCAR's inaugural Hall of Fame was announced it seems entirely appropriate that the circus swings through Charlotte and the sport's spiritual home base, for race number five of the 2009 Chase for the Sprint Cup.Fri, 16 Oct 2009 21:35:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/mark_beech/10/12/california.fivethings/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/mark_beech/10/12/california.fivethings/index.html1. Mark Martin had better get busy. As good as Jimmie Johnson has looked in NASCAR's postseason, Martin has held his own. An opening win at New Hampshire coupled with solid finishes at Dover and Kansas kept him in the points lead. But even a fourth-place finish at California on Sunday wasn't enough to prevent Johnson from taking over the lead in the Chase standings. Things aren't going to get any easier the next two weeks -- Charlotte and Martinsville are two of Johnson's favorite tracks. Martin runs well on them, too, but it's becoming clear that his No. 5 Chevy just doesn't have the raw speed to match his teammate's.Mon, 12 Oct 2009 18:10:00 EDThttp://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20286689,00.html?xid=rss-fullcontentcnnhttp://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20286689,00.html?xid=rss-fullcontentcnnThe Hangover star loves to cook - and speaks the language of loveTue, 23 Jun 2009 14:29:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/tom_bowles/05/25/coca.cola.600/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/tom_bowles/05/25/coca.cola.600/index.htmlFive things we learned after the running of the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte, won in an upset by David Reutimann after a rain-shortened race ended on Lap 227:Tue, 26 May 2009 00:45:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/tom_bowles/05/21/Bowles_Double/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/tom_bowles/05/21/Bowles_Double/index.html1,100 miles.

It will be interesting to see if Matt Garza, one of the best pure fastball pitchers in the game, goes away from his strength in Game 3 against the Phillies, a good fastball hitting team. Only two AL pitchers threw a higher percentage of fastballs this year than Garza. He kept to the script in the ALCS, throwing 80 percent fastballs and then 75 percent fastballs in his two starts against Boston. But the Rays have thrown mostly breaking pitches to Chase Utley, Ryan Howard and Pat Burrell, holding them to three hits in 24 at-bats. Said assistant pitching coach Brian Anderson of Garza, "He's had a very good breaking ball lately, probably the best it's been all year."Sat, 25 Oct 2008 17:05:00 EDThttp://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/10/23/king.north.carolina/index.html#cnnSTCTexthttp://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/10/23/king.north.carolina/index.html#cnnSTCTextIt is a methodical routine: House by house, Mary Boyd walks to the door and carefully affixes an election guide to the doorknob.Fri, 24 Oct 2008 15:50:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/steve_aschburner/10/17/expansion.anniversary/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/steve_aschburner/10/17/expansion.anniversary/index.htmlNever underestimate a marketing staff's ability to commemorate milestones, even ones that didn't exist before they created them.
