2017 Fantasy Recap -  I was pretty tough on Brad Keselowski throughout the 2017 season and for the most part it was because I knew what he was capable of. Overall, Keselowski wasn't in that top 3 or 4 group of drivers in terms of speed. But what he did very well was finish. He finished and he was very consistent. If you notice, he had 15 top 5 finishes and 21 top 10 finishes. He wasn't always a top 5 contender, but he almost always was close to that top 5 mark at end of the race though. His numbers were slighter better in 2016 than it was in 2017, but overall they are pretty similar. For comparison, his 2016 season was his second-best season in terms of stats overall.

Strong Tracks -  New Hampshire, Richmond, Chicago, Kentucky and Watkins Glenn

Weak Tracks - Sonoma and Daytona   

Yahoo Grouping Tier: A-list grouping tier

2018 Fantasy Outlook - Over 3 of the last 4 seasons, Keselowski has produced at least 3 wins with 15+ Top 5 finishes and 20+ Top 10 finishes. That's right up there among the elite in Nascar! I have high expectations for Brad Keselowski and the 2 team in 2018. He will be very consistent on a weekly basis and won't have many bad races. Keselowski's biggest advantage is probably his ability to qualify up front and to turn them into quality finishes. That's the model of the 2 team. Start up front and finish there, too. His strongest tracks will be the intermediate tracks, shorter tracks, flats and Watkins Glenn. I would have to say that Kentucky is his very best racetrack though. There or Watkins Glenn, really. Aside from those tracks, I really love him on the shorter flats, too. He's really good at places such as Phoenix, Richmond and Martinsville. He has had a lot of success at these tracks in seasons past.

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...
