No matter where you were when you heard the big news today, you had to stop and think - Carl Edwards is retiring?
Well, not retiring persay, just not stepping into a firesuit in 2017. Not competing in NASCAR this year. Not reporting to work at Joe Gibbs Racing. No more backflips when he wins a race.
I think I'm gonna miss that the most. The uncertainty of whether or not he will or wont stick the landing.
