This will be a ordsprog

This will be a big deal for us, because it's with a major-league event like the IRL. This is our home track; probably about 60-70 percent of the cars you will see are from Northern California. It will be like a trip back in history for the fans.

We continue to be thrilled with the tremendous support from the great California fans we have seen every day in record numbers. I truly believe that years from now, fans of this great sport will look back upon this event as a true moment of truth that played a significant role in the development of road cycling as a major sports competition. With records for largest-ever crowds for both a cycling race and an athletic event held in the state of California on track to be broken, we can easily witness first-hand the popularity of cycling to an incredibly broad and diverse group of all ages.

Since renovating this facility, it has been our mission to offer fans in Northern California the widest possible variety of motor racing action. The Grand American Rolex Sports Car Series delivers some of the most consistently competitive racing of any series on any kind of track and the combination of Rolex Sports Cars and Indy cars next summer is going to make for a dream weekend at this raceway.

Las Vegas is kind of like a home track for me because it's near California, where I live. Although we haven't won there yet, I always look forward to going back to Las Vegas. It's a newer race on the circuit (NHRA first competed at The Strip in 2000, the year the track was completed), and it's a first class facility. I always try to encourage fans and our sponsors to go there -- I like showing it off.

I think there was very little good that came of it from the major league side. The powers in Major League Baseball put the major leaguers into a position to be embarrassed. Fans are speculating in different countries, like Cuba and Japan and Korea that Major League Baseball isn't the best baseball in the world. I think it is, if the competition is fair.

This is part of our home-field advantage and for major league baseball to try and change that is either a) ridiculous or b) they're American League fans.

Albertson's owns the ground under about 60 percent of their stores, including a fair amount in California. With Northern California real estate so difficult to come by, that has its own value.

When you're talking about the best first five years in Major League history, how is that not huge? Whether it's the 100 RBIs or .300 batting average or 30 home runs, that's huge. It's historic. We're not going to be cool about that one. We just saw history. How often do you see history in this game? When you see it, you applaud it and you appreciate it.

It is our intention to bring Major League Soccer back to the Bay Area with a new expansion team as early as 2007. MLS is committed to working with local business leaders and city officials to continue these efforts. With the support of the city of San Jose, a local ownership group and a soccer-specific stadium, professional soccer can be very successful in northern California.

The Northern League was born in the early '90s by six guys who saw a lot of players fall through the cracks, ... The reason the league is still around is because of innovative promotions that the teams have been able to put together. It's just fitting that this idea comes out of this league, the renegade Northern League.

Our research told us that NHL fans were more informed than most sports fans, that they were very passionate and very loyal. It showed us that almost unequivocally, fans were supportive of the league in its efforts to put an economic model in place for long-term stability, and that about 95% of fans said they would come back and support the league when it returned.

There are schools from all over northern California there, so it's very prestigious meet. They have a minimum qualifying requirement for each event, so it's not like you can enter just anyone.

More than 1,200 (nearly 50 percent) players have made it to the Major Leagues. I don't think there is another league that can make that claim. In one average game, there are 30-plus Major League prospects.

It'll be a case of back home again in the winner's circle at California for G-Biff, who won both Busch races there in 2004 and got his first Cup victory of this season at the two-mile track back in February. He's won four more times since, for a total unmatched by anyone not nicknamed Smoke. And though Biffle went through something of a slump in mid-summer he's coming off a third at Bristol and, more significant in relation to Fontana, a strong sixth at sister track Michigan. Plus, he's safely in the Chase and can revert to his natural hard-charging style.

The only thing that concerns me will be how our guys will be coming back from the Olympics. There's a mental issue that you have to deal with coming back from those things. These guys expend so much of themselves at this event. It's such a pinnacle at two-thirds of the way through the season. I don't know how that magnitude of an event is going to affect them. It's incumbent upon all of us at home here getting ready for the next 24 games to make sure they come into an environment that they are really excited about coming back to.
