By George, Foges did it!


Vacation did Foges some good. After opening the year with a Daytona 500 individual win, there hasn't been much to crow about for the Smoke Bombs. But a team victory at Chicagoland Speedway in the Lifelock.com 400 gave absent-from-work Matt 14 fresh dollars. The week was made better when Foges was able to skirt by with no contributions to the George Steinbrenner One-Off.

Joe's Paper Chasers stayed hot with David Reutimann's indvidiual win for $7 more.

Up next: Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis on Sunday (1 p.m., ESPN), a standard $7/14 event.
