Keselowski takes Nationwide pole at New Hampshire

Autoracing Betting Lines

06/26/2010 - Loudon, NH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brad Keselowski will start on the pole for Saturday's New England 200 Nationwide Series race after topping Carl Edwards in qualifying at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

Keselowski, who currently holds a 237-point lead over Edwards, turned a lap of 129.657 m.p.h. around the flat 1.058-mile oval for his third pole of the season and the sixth of his Nationwide career.

"This is a great start, but we still have a long way to go, even just today," Keselowski said. "This is a tough race. Having a good car like we have today hopefully should get us to that next level."

Keselowski will attempt to become the 24th different winner in as many Nationwide races at New Hampshire.

Edwards qualified 0.03 seconds behind Keselowski to capture the outside pole.

Kevin Harvick took the third spot, while Kyle Busch, the defending race winner, and Justin Allgaier rounded out the top-five. Busch is making his first Nationwide start since four weeks ago at Charlotte, where he picked up his series-leading fifth win of the season.

Steve Wallace qualified sixth, followed by Joey Logano, Austin Dillon, Justin Lofton and Ricky Stenhouse Jr.

Danica Patrick struggled in Friday's practice sessions at New Hampshire, but improved with a 25th-place qualifying effort. Patrick will make her fourth Nationwide start, but her first since February 27 at Las Vegas.

"Just considering how it felt, I guess I should be a little bit happier with it," she said. "To go a little bit quicker than yesterday, I guess is a good thing. It's always nice when your quickest lap of the weekend is in qualifying."

Charles Lewandoski and Chris Lawson failed to qualify.

The 200-lap race at New Hampshire is scheduled to start around 3:30 p.m.

Problem with Bears?

Chicago, IL - New Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler and star linebacker Brian Urlacher shot down reports of a rift, saying they're simply not true.

"There's nothing between us," Cutler said Thursday, when he reported to training camp. "I just want to put that to rest. There never has been anything between us."

Bet on NFL

Urlacher added: "I never said what I was quoted as saying and that's it. I have a lot of respect for Jay. I think Jay knows that."
Former Bears receiver Bobby Wade caused a stir when he told Minneapolis radio station KFAN-AM that Urlacher used a profanity while questioning Cutler's manhood during a conversation in Las Vegas last weekend. Wade, who now plays for the Vikings, said Urlacher used a profane version of the word "wimp" during the interview that had to be edited out.
go radio station WSCR-AM also reported that Urlacher had to be restrained from confronting Cutler during organized team activities.
"I wouldn't go face-to-face with Brian, anyway," Cutler said. "No, that's never happened. I've hung out with Brian away from the facility numerous times and we've always gotten along."
Urlacher, noting he was limited by a groin injury, denied the reports in an interview with the Chicago Tribune and did it again when he reported to camp.
"I didn't practice this summer, so I don't know how I would fight the guy if I didn't practice," Urlacher said. "We have no problems. I'm excited about football starting. I'm excited to have him as our quarterback."
Why would Wade say that?
"I don't know," Urlacher said. "Maybe he's jealous because we have a good quarterback now."
Cutler said the first he heard of any friction was when he got a call from Urlacher to clear the air. Urlacher, however, said he had already taken several calls from teammates wondering if the reports were true when Cutler phoned.
"He called me and I said, What's up (expletive), what are you doing?'" a grinning Urlacher said, uttering the same word he allegedly used with Wade. "It's so dumb to me that this even got to this point, but it did and then here we are."
better place after going 9-7 and missing the playoffs for the second straight year. They have a franchise quarterback for the first time in decades after acquiring Cutler in an offseason trade with Denver. But there are questions about his attitude following a fallout with Broncos management and new coach Josh McDaniels.
His critics include former Bears coach Mike Ditka and former Indianapolis and Tampa Bay coach Tony Dungy, one of Smith's mentors. Smith, however, said Cutler has been a model teammate so far while denying any animosity with Urlacher.
"There's no issue with Jay and Brian, except Brian and Jay are both excited about being teammates for our club this year," coach Lovie Smith said. "No more than that. We can't spend a whole lot of time on something that isn't true. I have talked to the players. Whenever something comes out, you have to address it, but it's a non-issue."
In some ways, Cutler is getting a second chance in Chicago, an opportunity to repair his reputation.
Smith said another quarterback - Michael Vick - deserves one, although he doesn't see it happening with the Bears, who lack an experienced backup. The former Atlanta Falcons star, who served a 23-month sentence for running a dogfighting ring, said Thursday he is getting close to signing with a pro football team.
"A second chance, like everyone in society who has paid their debt to society," Smith said. "He deserves a second chance. As far as we're concerned, we like this team that we have right now."
Particularly the new quarterback.
"Me and Brian have been on a good relationship since I've been here, and I expect it to continue that way," Cutler said.
