Why is Dale Earnhardt Jr picked as the Favorite to win the Daytona 500 by the oddsmakers?

Because he used to dominate the super speedway tracks and even when he's been off he is still good enough to crack the top 10. He started out by qualifying 2nd and he was fastest in practice. You can't rig qualifying it would be to easy to tell when the other guys are letting off the gas. Quit hatting and give the guy credit for once. You know he has more titles than your boy bush in Nascar, and guess what at the end of the day he can go to bed knowing he's not a complete d-bag like he is.
