Boys Will Be Morons Dept.

Pacman Jones is not the only athlete mixing it up. Sprint Cup drivers Carl Edwards (pictured) and Kevin Harvick reportedly got into it in a garage at Lowe’s Motor Speedway in Concord, N.C.

The problem between the two apparently stems from a note Edwards left in a seat on Harvick's airplane after last weekend’s race at the Talladega Superspeedway. The note referred to critical comments Harvick made about Edwards following a multi-car wreck toward the end of the race, a wreck triggered when Edwards tapped teammate Greg Biffle.

The accident took out several contenders, including Harvick. Afterward, Harvick said, "I know that his fans won't be very proud of him sitting back there riding around like a pansy. If he had been racing all day, maybe he would have known how long the front of his car was."

Whoa. Fighting words? Apparently.

Not that Edwards denied responsibility for the wreck, at the time saying, "I always worry about the idiots when I come here and today it was me."

So what set him off? Must have been the "P" word.
