Oh, She's Gone

Our yearlong wait is over.

The economy can begin its turnaround.

The flirtation is over. She has decided to commit to a new entity.

With today's press conference the GoDaddy girl is gone, officially, from IndyCar.

Danica Patrick heads to NASCAR full-time in 2012 in the Nationwide Series.

There's no real news to this announcement, other than confirmation of something that has been a yearlong soap opera and one of the worst kept secrets in sports, let alone in auto racing.

A far different send off from me to her leaving as opposed to Patrick Carpentier.

It's been ... interesting. I'll leave it at that.

I leave it to Hall & Oates to serenade the driver whose tenure in IndyCar was far more polarizing than outright successful.


And here's what she'll be in NASCAR ... even though she denied doing it "just for the money."
