It's a safe bet that you won't be seeing Darrell Waltrip holding hands with Tony Kornheiser and singing "Kum Ba Yah" anytime soon, not that you were likely to anyway.But the chances got even more remote when, during his show, "Pardon The Interruption," Kornheiser said Tuesday he had spoken to someone who said there was a "60 percent" chance that Dale Earnhardt, Jr. had qualified and won the pole position for Sunday's Daytona 500 with a car that was not up to code and that NASCAR officials had looked the other way.
Needless to say, Waltrip, a FOX race analyst, took umbrage with Kornheiser's off the cuff statements and said so during a conference call to promote Daytona coverage Thursday.
