Random Wednesday question that occurred during today's chat: assume you just hit the lottery and became a kajillionaire. Now, assume against all reason, that you decided to start a NASCAR team, and you've got the pick of the litter. You can sign any driver you like -- active, that is -- and your goal is to produce a consistent championship team for years to come.
So who would you take? You only get the driver, no fair bringing along their existing crew. But you can still hang onto their fanbase.
-The established champion in Jimmie Johnson, who's shown again and again that he knows how to win -- but could be on the downslope before long?
-The insanely talented but moody star in Kyle Busch, who's destined for greatness but also for some serious blowups?
-The marketing juggernaut in Dale Earnhardt Jr., who'll bring enough cash into your brand-new organization to make people forget about winning for awhile?
-Or somebody else like Carl Edwards, Juan Pablo Montoya, Joey Logano or Brad Keselowski, each with plenty of positives but plenty of negatives?
Have at it. Make your case in the comments. If this flies, perhaps "random question Wednesday" could become a regular feature. And if not, well, it's your fault.
Oh, and don't forget to name your new team. Go!
