A win would be great and that would put him in the All-Star race as well, but even if RG is in contention and gets a Top 5 he will get a ton of publicity for Fast Five and Speed Energy and a boost in the points. Did Robby even get a full minitue of combined TV time last week at Texas?

if it was between noon-2pm Id say they have a decent shot...but there are some BIG time storms west moving nroth north east but will slide across as the front pushes through...

Probably just in time to ruin pratice...lol
