Liar, liar, pants on fire!

Somebody be lying!

And I smell a wee hobbit of a racecar driver burning when I say that.

According to Evernham's website, Kasey Kahne is 5'9". This strange fact was also stated in the People Sexiest Men issue. The thing is, when you can't see the driver over his car, and standing near drivers that are stated as being 6 ft. tall (yeah, sure, I buy that one too...come on Junior, you're 5'10" if an inch taller) he appears much, much shorter, there's no way in hell I'm buying the whole 5'9" thing.

On the other hand, I quite honestly believe Chip Ganassi racing when they state that Jamie McMurray is 5'6" of wee hobbitiness. Cause the boy is short. That has been noted in person.

Also on that note, indeed, Michael Waltrip is a whoppingly massive 6'5" tall. He is. Huge man. (Also a really handsome man for whom television does not do justice.) He may have played second banana to Darrell all his life in the racing, but I don't doubt for a minute that until Buffy, he wasn't hurting for female companionship and could out-score his brother any day on that front.

Shocked

I'm shocked.

Dang it.

I have found visual proof that WeeKasey...may not be so wee. His slightness of build may be the contributing factor to his appearance of weeness, and his overly large head my make him look shorter (I'm sure there's logic in that statement somewhere).

I found pictures at The Evernham Website of Kasey standing beside various people: Ben Affleck, Bill Elliott. Now, Billy boy is tall. 6' to 6'1". Ben is actually tall.

And in the pictures, WeeKasey is not significantly shorter than them. In fact, he can almost look most of them in the eye.

Dang it.
