TOP TEN NASCAR QUOTES:
10. "I'm like a mule. I can take it. The safety devices are incredible today. We used to take those kind of whoopings without all that stuff, and it was a lot worse. This one is over with, and we'll pick up and go on."
-- Mark Martin, after being caught in a six-car wreck at Talladega on Lap 20.
. "The NHL has its work cut out for it. Let's face it -- television, advertising, marketing, licensing ... all of that stuff comes back to the fans; if they are mad, they won't be buying -- whether it's tickets or souvenirs. ... It's like walking out on your wife for a week. You can't walk back in the door, give her a wave, tell her you missed her and expect her to start cooking dinner."
