TMI! TMI!
Too Much Information!?!? Like it or not, I guess we all got a biology lesson from Ann Schrader on today's (6/24) podcast. Who would have known? Only on Rowdy do you get this type of NASCAR insider information. Speaking of fire suits, you would think that a fire suit would help that situation. That aside, Ann Schrader is a hoot; or as Buck says, "piece o' work." Good interview.
Average Rating:
yeah, that whole thing about burning up the *&^&^&.... Was just a little to much info. However, she is so funny, and can see her and Kenny being together..... I will never forget the burning **&^&*........

At least we all know why Kenny's always smiling...even when he doesn't win the race. :)
Ann sounds like a lot of fun. I hope the Rowdy boys keep in touch with her. I bet she has some great stories....and maybe a few where everyone has their pants on.

And I was worried about bicycling causing impotence. Looks like relatively speaking I'm in the clear.
