Mistake by FAST Costs Mike Linnen

FAST Racing made a huge mistake when they signed Mike Linnen to a contract yesterday but it was a huge gain for SAC. When FAST signed Michael, they did not specify how long the contract lasted, which means it is an invalid contract and Michael can sign with someone else. Linnen proceeded to sign with SAC, giving them a powerhouse in the SMBS.

SAC Contract for Michael Linnen-

75% of SAC Ownership is Sam Neidermann, 25% of SAC Ownership is Michael Linnen. Michael cannot leave SAC unless he is relased or traded. Michael's contract expires on August 5th, 2009.

Pre-Race Interviews

Before tonight's race, Bartender Neidermann was interviewed to assess their chances.

When asked how he feels, Neidermann replied, "I think it'll be a tough race, it's one of the longer, probably the longest.  I'll have some competition from my teammate Carson and FAST Racing's Mike Linnen.  My sister, Grace Neidermann might have the stamina to keep up with me, she's the dark horse."  When asked if he can beat Michael he says, "I don't really think so unless he wiped out in some sort or the heat took him out.  I don't really think so overall, my chances are pretty slim, I'm just aiming to complete it."  When asked how he feels about getting water sprayed on him, he replied "Maybe we should hand out little cups instead of spraying."  When asked about what he thinks about Michael bailing himself out he said, "He definitely should've been suspended for tonight, and he bought his way out of his supsension and he's definitely going to win tonight.  He should be suspended for tonight.  (More stupid comments continue)."

Grace Neidermann was asked about the race tonight as well.  When asked how she felt she replied, "I feel scared b/c I feel I'm gonna come in last but I might beat my brother Sam b/c he sometimes gets really slow.  Yeah that's all I can really say."  When asked how she felt about the Michael Linnen situation, she replied "I think that he probably should have payed more, I agree with my brother."  When asked how she feels about signing with FAST, she replied, "I feel like I'm gonna fell bad b/c I'm probably not gonna get points for them, but it's better than at Lime Green Racers where my teammates didn't get me any points."

Grace Neidermann was released by Lime Green Racers, as they are going to cease current operations in the Sirius Series.  After that Grace signed a deal with FAST Racing.  Both Linnens and Grace cannot all race in the same race this year.

Michael Linnen Suspended

Michael Linnen of FAST Racing was suspended for 3 races following tonight's race for his poor choices last night. Alex Carson of SAC Racing was placed on probation for the remainder of the season for his involvment in last night's events.

EDIT: Michael Linnen bought his way out of the suspension.

Jesus Christ Racing Makes Changes

FISHERS (AP)-Today, the day after the Jesus Racing and Christ Racing merger to form Jesus Christ Racing, JCR has wasted no time by calling Noah Richards up from the Intermediate Series. Richards has performed decently in the series this year and JCR has determined they have the funds to call him up and possibly upgrade his bike. Richards will be sponsored by Christ Chicken, a fast food establishment. Josh Richards will remain in the Intermediate Series for the time being.

JCR is last in the Owner Points with 1.34, which is .31 behind Lime Green Racers for third and way behind FAST Racing and SAC Racing for the lead.

Post-Race Comments

After his two wins Mike Linnen was asked, "How do you feel about your performance?" and Linnen replied with "My performance doesn't matter, why does it matter? It matters how much fun you have. I'll be sponsored by Dinaco." When asked why he wants to be sponsored by Dinaco, a fictional company he replied, "They'll be my secondary sponsor."

When asked about his race, Bartender replied, "I think I did good, except for when I was passed by Sammy Linnen. I think I could do better, much better especially in the race against Grace. I think she's on roids. She's got good leg power. I think I can beat her next time."

When asked about her race, Sammy Linnen replies, "I feel great after passing Batender. That was a great accomplishment." When asked what's her status for future races she replied, "One here and there. It depends what I feel like, I'll probably be a judge. I was a little tired after watching Up, I should have done better. Up is interesting. I don't know why they called it that." Getting a little of topic aren't we? lol

When asked about his sponsors, Carson replied, "Well ya know all of my sponsors equally contribute to the team so I like them all the same." When asked if he could ever beat Michael he said, "If Michael wipes out I should pretty good chance but it probably won't happen w/o some sort of sabotage. I think I can be competitive though with Michael."

Mike Linnen has a slight lead in the points over Carson.

Basketball and Biking

Grace Neidermann won a race, and Mike Linnen won two races in the past few days.

In the basketball spectrum, Mees beat Neidermann and thought he had won another game before Neidermann challenged the Mees 30-29 victory and it was overturned and they had to finish the game because Mees only won by one, which is illegal. In the completion, Neidermann made the situation worse for Mees by "stabbing in the aorta" by knocking down a three to win the game. Then, Carson handled Mees easily with a 30-19 victory where he jumped out to a 16-3 lead after Mees knocked a 3 to start the game.

End of June and Canada Day Tournaments

FISHERS (AP)-Yesterday and today there were two tournaments, both which Alex Carson defeated Andrew Mees in the championship, while Sam Neidermann finished third. Today, Carson was "late to work" as he took a game and a half off for the most part but was still able to get the job done.

As we approach the end of March...

FISHERS, INDIANA (AP)- As we approach the end of March we have seen many trends in the 1v1 game so far. One trend is Carson's 0-6 record against Sopoci and Schlotter combined, while he has a 10-1 record against Mees. Carson has also defeated Neidermann and lost to Mike Linnen. The next couple of months should get really interesting as we see who will emerge as the favorite to win the Stevenson Mill 1v1 2009 Championship.
