2017 Fantasy Nascar Picks (Charlotte)

Welcome to TimersSports

Well once again, Matt Aleza is unavailable to write up his weekly fantasy picks. So you all get stuck with me again. Yes, I know, I know you are honored. Anyways, let's dig into today's content!

It was nice to have a chill off-weekend from Fantasy Nascar, but folks, it is time to get back at it. I will honest, I hate off-weeks. I just hate them, sure there was the All-star race. But I haven't bothered to watch it in about 3 years. Judging by the reaction on social media, I didn't miss too much. Congrats to Kyle Busch on the cool million and win, while we are on the subject. Anyhow, onto the 600. This is the longest race of the season and one of the series' top events. Winning the 600 is special and one lucky driver will get to live the glory on Sunday night. Who should be on your fantasy radar? Well, here's my picks!

Season Rankings -

Yahoo Fantasy Racing - 94th Percentile

Fantasy Live - 99th Percentile

Fox Fantasy Auto Racing - 99th Percentile

Yahoo -

A -

Start - Martin Truex Jr (7)

Bench - Joey Logano (7)

Reasoning - This was not a hard decision to make. Truex Jr has been a stud all season on this type of track and Logano is stating mid-pack. I am rolling with the safe option, the defending race winner, Truex Jr!

B-

Start - Kyle Larson (8), Jamie Mac (5)

Bench - Ryan Blaney (5), Chase Elliott (8)

Reasoning - I think most people will bench Larson this weekend becuase he is starting so deep in the field. Folks, I am not! I think Kyle Larson is going to go to victory lane. Where he is starting is far from being irreverent. His car was so good on Saturday, he left practice about 11 minutes early. He sounded really confident in his car, too. Then there Jamie Mac, Blaney and Elliott. Blaney put down fast laps, but he didn't sound too confident. Jamie Mac is a stud here and been fast on the 1.5 mile tracks. So let's come back to him. Elliott is the ideal fantasy play with starting 3rd, but do I pull the trigger here? For now, I am leaning towards Jamie Mac. But I just might change my mind before the green flag waves.

C -

Start - Erik Jones (7)

Bench - Daniel Suarez (7)

Reasoning -Both are pretty solid this weekend, but I am going with Jones for now. I think he is capable of delivering a top 10 finish more than Suarez in a 600 mile event. It will be a tall task, but I like his chances

Fantasy Live - 42,18,78,34,37

Fox - 42,48,19,88,22

Sleeper - Ricky Stenhouse JR

Winner - Kyle Busch

Even though at times, it did feel like Elliott has taken a step back in his second year at the cup level. I also felt like (throughout the year) that Elliott didn't truly take off until we got into the Nascar playoffs. The driver of the No.24 car was a force to be reckon with and a common name in drama down the stench. In those...

The Music < Tarp Family: Folk Fest 2014 Wrap Up

It's taken me a long time to write this post because mostly I couldn't think of how to fill out my top 5 for the Edmonton Folk Fest 2014 . This was not a stellar year on the hill for music for me. I've previously acknowledged that I've pigeon holed myself so much musically that I enjoy less and less these days. And this year, I'm a bit burnt out and didn't really want to deal with the early mornings and the lines. I was only going to go for one day to see Michael Franti, but ended up being talked into getting a weekend pass. And it was a good thing I went for the whole festival. View of the city is always stunning from the hill. Here's my Folk Fest 2014 top 5: 1. My Tarp Family - Even though the music was not awesome for me this year, my tarp family sure was. This is the second (or third, we can't remember) year I've hung out at the top of the hill with my (relatively new) usual music crew. And over the years I've really come to love spending tim...
