• UNCONVENTIONAL WISDOM: Phoenix International Raceway, NASCAR and Subway sent the wrong signal to the family-friendly fan base by naming Detroit Lions' defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh -- one of the NFL's dirtiest players -- as Grand Marshal for the March 4 Subway Fresh Fit 500k. With Arizona celebrating 100 years as a state, having one or more of AZ's greatest sports heroes in the role would have been appropriate. (AZ Diamondbacks World Series hero pitcher Randy Johnson will be at PIR as a photographer.)

SILENCE

There is much that could be said. No doubt, given the realities of social media, others will do at least some of that. Out of respect to the family, friends and fans of Dan Wheldon, I will stay silent this week. Thank you. God Bless.
