I was pretty pissed to look at Jayski and see that Office Depot is rumored to be looking at Mikey Waltrip Racing since they lost their Roush deal. MWR????

What do you mean by "they lost their Roush deal?"

UPS is very interested to sign with Edwards. So I guess Office Depot is also looking at other teams.

Reutimann probably needs a lot less money than Kvapil and Gilliland.

Michael Waltrip Racing is barely competitive.

Our Office Depot is pretty empty lately. Maybe they can't afford a quality team anymore.

I just mean that they had a pretty good gig on Edwards' car, and they were probably hoping to stick with him until Aflac brought the big dough.

I've been hearing more rumors about Edwards and UPS than Edwards and Aflac.

Either way Edwards got a great deal.
