Speaking Of Women Drivers ...

The boys racing in this year's Indy 500 better pay a little more attention to their rear view mirrors as there will be not one, or even two, but three women drivers trying to qualify for the Greatest Spectacle in Racing. Danica Patrick, Sarah Fisher, and Milka Duno all stand a very good chance of making the race. What would be even cooler is if they could all qualify in the same row. Then all the guys behind them could (must ... refrain ... from ... making ... women ... driver ... crack ...).

Yesterday all three of them competed in the IndyCar race in Kansas, and amazingly all three finished without going into a spin while putting on makeup or talking on their cell phones. (Damn, I knew I couldn't make it through this whole post.) Patrick finished seventh, while Fisher finished 12th, and Duno ended up in 14th in her series debut.

Expect to see shot after shot of these women on SportsCenter during the month of May regardless of where they start or finish the actual race itself. That's a good thing, by the way.
