2017 Fantasy Recap - In last offseason's profile's of Trevor Bayne, I projected him to have 0 wins, 2-4 top 5 finishes, 3-6 top 10 finishes and 18-22 top 20 finishes. Well, I nailed every single of those total right there. It doesn't take a rocket science to figure out what Bayne is probably capable of. Still, it is nice to have a set of prediction to plan out according. In 2016, Bayne had a career-year in his young cup career. He posted slightly even better numbers in 2017. He had same amount of top 5 finishes, one more top 10 finish and a slightly better average finish of 19.5 compared to his 19.9 in 2016. My biggest thing heading into the season with Bayne was not decending in 2017. I thought early in the season, he showed real potential and promise with all of those top 10 and top 15 finishes he had in the first 11 races. In those first 11 races, he had 8(!!) top 13 finishes!

Strong Tracks - Bristol, Michigan and Atlanta  

Weak Tracks - Sonoma, Indy and Darlington   

Yahoo Grouping Tier: B-list grouping

2018 Fantasy Outlook - Over the last two seasons, Bayne has shown something as driver. He is showing us that he belong at this level and is capable of being in the #6 car. Early last season, he started off very strong. Similarly to how good he was to start off in 2016 as well. I know a lot of people will say that RFR is slow and Bayne is talentless and whatever nonsense is out there. But I don't believe that stuff. RFR is slowly getting back to being more competitive than it was three years ago and Bayne is also starting to improve as a driver, too. Bayne will be capable of running well and of course he will have his share of bad races, as well. In 2018, I think he will have a similar season to the last two seasons he had. And like the past two seasons, I think he will continue to improve. He was good in 2016, but slightly better in 2017. For Bayne's sake, I hope he is slightly better in 2018. And if he can have a strong start to the season like in 2017, then he has a chance to have really good year. Because believe it or not, I think RFR will be better than it has been over the past two seasons and we all know they have came quite long ways from 2014 and 2015.

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...
