By Geoffrey Miller - AOL NewsCarl Edwards certainly has been full of what marketing-types like to call "crossover appeal." He's been the star of AFLAC's main Olympic commercial. He's glanced the cover of Men's Health magazine while becoming a spokesman for healthy fast food chain Subway. And, of course, he's become a favorite of the "SportsCenter" highlight reels with his trademark backflip after a win. But Edwards, ever the effervescent spokesman and intelligent thinker when asked questions in news conferences, has obviously shown to have a much darker side on-track at times -- with none more evident than what he ...
Best YouTube Moments of 2007
By Tommy Christopher - Politics DailyIt's December now, and I thought to myself, "Wouldn't it be cool to think back over the past year about what the best things were, and then put them on a list?" It's a radical concept, but let's see if it catches on. "But what about things that happen before New Year's Day, but after you do your list?", you might ask. Those things never happened.

Ray Lewis Turns to Champ Car After NASCAR Didn't "Help"
By Geoffrey Miller - AOL NewsWhen Rick Hendrick started his racing team, NASCAR wasn't there to nudge and give anything he needed to be successful. The same goes for Jack Roush, Ray Evernham, Robert Yates, and fill-in-the-blank-here-with-a-NASCAR-owner.So what, Ray Lewis, made you feel so entitled that you can blame your failure to produce a racing team on NASCAR?Lewis, a linebacker for the Baltimore Ravens, told FOX Sports Radio all about his terrible misfortunes.

Say What? Martinsville Friday Quotes
By Geoffrey Miller - AOL NewsSome sayings, thoughts, and quotables from Denny Hamilin's pole-winning Friday at Martinsville Speedway.Matt Kenseth wouldn't take the blame for Dale Jarrett's spin last week at Bristol, and apparently, they haven't talked.
