That gray headline over there has been up since early this evening.

Yes, Jimmie Johnson did crash in Wednesday’s practice for Thursday’s qualifying races for the Daytona 500 (got that?), but Stewart didn’t. In fact, he wasn’t anywhere near the accident when the accident occurred.

Mike Bliss got loose coming off of turn four and collected Joey Logano as he smashed into the wall. Johnson, trying to check up in the wreck, hit Denny Hamlin’s rear bumper and spun around.

So why does an editor at NBC think that Stewart was in the crash despite not one single mention of him in the story? Well, my guess is that he/she still thinks that Stewart is in the #20 car, the car that Logano currently drives. Never mind that Logano is already one of NASCAR’s most recognizable drivers and won at New Hampshire. While inaccurate, I do appreciate the copy editor’s association of Stewart in the #20 car. I’m glad I’m not alone in wishing that he was the driver of the Home Depot car forever.
