Moss my Johnson

Two-time Sprint Cup champ Jimmie Johnson is joining forces with the newly-formed Moss Motorsports squad of Randy Moss. Johnson will compete in the Craftsman Truck Series event in the No. 81 Chevy at Bristol on Aug. 20th. Johnson has never won an event at Bristol Motor Speedway and has never competed in the Truck Series. Moss has never won a Super Bowl and has never seen the significance of the Marshall University plane crash. Sounds like a good pairing to us.

Randy Moss to Truck Series... Really?

While winning the Super Bowl may have alluded the playmaker of late, the moderately-ghetto New England wideout has decided he needs a NASCAR team.

No driver or manufacturer have been announced, but hopefully this deal lasts a bit longer than Carmelo Anthony's short-lived Indycar outfit. ('Melo's deal with Hemelgarn Racing lasted about a week.) Reports say Moss Motorsports, LLC should have a NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series entry for later this season and run a full schedule in 2009.
