Kenseths: Great expectations in 2009 for this...

2009 Shaping Up to be Big Year for Matt and Katie Kenseth

How apropos that the biggest NASCAR WAG headline of season-opening weekend belongs to the wife of Daytona 500 winner Matt Kenseth.

Katie Kenseth is expecting the couple's first child together!

... she's about five months along. These two have been married for eight years and fans have been waiting for forEVer for this great news. Congrats to Matt and Katie.

UPDATE: Kaylin Nicola Kenseth arrived on July 6!

C'mon, Ryan and Krissie Newman. You could be next! A word of warning to the fans hoping for this ... Krissie once said she didn't want to start a family until Ryan was within five years of retirement. Be careful what you wish for.

Did you miss opening ceremonies and all the wives and girlfriends on pit road like I did? Here's a partial replay. No surprises here: Kevin and Delana Harvick, Jeremy and Shana Mayfield, Jamie McMurray and Christy Futrell, Tony and (vacant), AJ and Lynne Allmendinger, Elliott and Amanda Sadler (1st time on pit road as married couple), Jeff and Kim Burton, Brian Vickers and (vacated by Amy in the off-season), Clint Bowyer and (vacant), Sam and Crystal Hornish, Juan and Connie Montoya, David Stremme and Elizabeth Peschock, Joey Logano and (vacant) and Jimmie and Chani Johnson.

This wasn't my favorite performance by Gavin DeGraw and I saw some harsh critiques on Twitter today. Do not let this discourage you from checking him out or seeing him in concert. He is just fantastic: 2nd time's a charm and charmed I was by this...

Leave your burning questions in the comments. Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Kasey Kahne are obvious, both are rumored to be dating. My question is this... When aren't they? One publicly, one privately -- never is without a female companion for any extended period of time. Yet neither ever seems to make a go of it for longer than a period of a few months either. How serious can it be? Discuss.

Crossing lines and drooling on this...

Tony Stewart's radio show, "Tony Stewart Live," made its debut Thursday night on Sirius Satellite Radio. His guests included fellow drivers Jimmie Johnson and Kevin Harvick, The Charlotte Oberver's David Poole, Texas Motor Speedway's Eddie Gossage and Richard Simmons (?).

Quoting this...
"The things they want us to talk about are the things we take for granted," Stewart said. "We can talk about Katie Kenseth [wife of Matt Kenseth] coming out with her jogging shorts on and I'm drooling on the window [of my motorcoach].

"You can't feed the race fans enough information. They want to know if you wear underwear, what underwear you wear, what brand, where you buy it, how much you pay for it. If you can give them all that information, they're happy as hell."

Stewart appears happy to share that type of information, something he wasn't so keen on when on the other side of the microphone.

"If you ask me what brand of underwear I wore, I'd think you were crazy and I'd probably never do another interview with you again," Stewart said as he sat at the head of a boardroom table surrounded by reporters after the show. "But that's what the fans want to know."

Stewart hopes to do this without crossing any lines that might embarrass a fellow competitor. He acknowledged some of his stories might be told using "Driver X" instead of the driver's name.

"I'm sure we'll go over the line before we figure out exactly where it needs to be," Stewart said. "To me, I feel the risk is worth the reward if you're giving the fans something that they feel like is exclusive to them and they can't get anywhere else." [ESPN.com, Dec. 6, 2006]

Asking men about the beauty of this...

This week, AskMen.com's weekly beauty pageant features NASCAR wives.

Visitors can choose between the following:

Chandra Johnson Jimmie Johnson may be the 2006 Daytona 500 champion, but he hit the jackpot when he landed Chandra. We'd gladly take this blonde knockout over some trophy for our mantel any day.

Ingrid Vandebosch She may be a successful model and actress, but what we really want to see is how this Belgian-born beauty handles a stick shift.

Katie Kenseth Don't let Katie's girl-next-door image fool you -- we know any woman with a fetish for fast cars can't be that conservative.
