Letter: Burton line was funny

Monday, Sept. 25, 2000 | 6:35 a.m.

I started reading Ron Kantowski's columns about a year ago, after a friend recommended I check them out. I have very much enjoyed them.

I loved his Ward Burton line (about how understanding Portuguese is easier than understanding Burton) in his note about the possibility of auto racing becoming a demonstration sport in the Olympics. It's hard to believe Jeff Burton and Ward Burton grew up eating dinner across the table from each other.

My friend, who is a NASCAR fan (I still love her, despite that fact) is still laughing over that line.
