BROOKLYN, Mich. - Brad Keselowski answered two questions with one answer Friday morning.Team Penske has won both of the races with the proposed 2017 aerodynamic package. So what gives? And what has the team heard, if anything, about the post-Pocono competitive balance wind tunnel testing NASCAR did after it took cars from every manufacturer?Keselowski answered the second question before it was even asked with his answer to the first one about why Joey Logano won Michigan in June and Keselowski won Kentucky in July, both races with the proposed 2017 rules package being used again at Michigan this weekend.There actually is a really good reason for it, Keselowski said. I think from an aero perspective -- NASCAR took all the cars after Pocono -- and from an aero perspective right now the Fords are the worst.So when you go to a lower downforce [for 2017], we arent at quite a disadvantage. Since we are running well, we have other advantages on the car, but from an aero perspective we are the worst in that category.Its not a surprise to hear Keselowski say that. The statistics show it.In the 18 races using the 2016 aerodynamic package (in other words, races not including restrictor-plate events at Daytona and Talladega, and the 2017 package races at Michigan and Kentucky), Toyotas have led 62 percent of all laps and won 10 of them. Chevrolets have led 30 percent with six wins, and Fords have led just eight percent with two wins.In those races, Toyota earned 46 percent of the top-five starting positions, which shows its speed. Chevrolet does have 48 percent of the overall top-five finishes.Obviously, the number and strength of the manufacturers teams -- Toyota is primarily Joe Gibbs Racing and affiliate Furniture Row Racing -- play a role in these results. And a postrace car in the wind tunnel is never truly an accurate picture since the cars had just run hundreds of laps.I am sure you would be shocked to know who won, Keselowski said about the wind-tunnel testing, referring to Toyota. I didnt see the numbers personally so it isnt fair for me to say [exactly how far were off].But I could read the faces of the people that did see the numbers and I know the meetings that happened right after and I would say based on that there were some reactions to say we were a little further behind than we wanted to be.The former Sprint Cup champion said this as just plain fact and he swore he wasnt trying to lobby for a rule change the rest of the season. NASCAR officials wouldnt release numbers nor confirm Keselowskis assessment from the test, but they said they have no plans to make any rules changes based on what they saw.Balance of performance is something that hurts our sport when we continue to make changes and concessions, Keselowski said. As long as when we are on the good side of that, it stays the same.It seems every time we get on top there is a wind tunnel test or some kind of rule change to try to pull us down. But when we are behind it is like, Oh now, lets keep it fair and equal and everyone with the same opportunity. As long as it is consistent either way, I am good with that.Ford introduced a new nose in 2016, and Toyota changed some of its body style in 2015. The Chevrolets have remained relatively the same but would expect to have a new car either in 2017 or 2018 as Chevrolet closes its SS production plants in Australia next year.The Gibbs guys have got, I feel like, a little bit of an advantage right now because they have just been working hard on it, said Richard Childress Racing driver Austin Dillon, who drives a Chevrolet. We just have to keep working on it in our camp and see if we can catch them before the end of the year.Kent Emanuel Jersey .Y. -- The Buffalo Sabres have recalled forward Kevin Porter and defenceman Chad Ruhwedel from the minors as part of a five-player roster shuffle made by the NHLs worst team. Roy Oswalt Jersey . Any real chance at payback wont come until the playoff. Still, Pittsburgh knows its taut 3-2 win over the Bruins on Wednesday night is a pretty good place to start laying the groundwork. "They are a very good defensive team," Penguins forward Brandon Sutter said. http://www.customastrosjersey.com/custom-jim-bouton-jersey-large-676y.html . Dallas hasnt ruled out the star quarterback for Sunday nights game against Philadelphia, but all signs point to Romos back injury pushing Kyle Orton into the starting role after two years of limited play as the backup. Surely Ortons name isnt the first that comes to mind for fans wanting a change after years of damaging interceptions, fumbles or, most infamously, the field goal flub when Romo dropped the snap on a kick that could have won his first playoff game in 2006. Framber Valdez Jersey . Clarke was injured while practicing on the Doha Golf Club range after the pro-am on Tuesday. The Northern Irishman arrived at the course on Wednesday hoping to start, but after hitting a few balls on the practice putting green Clarke advised officials he was not fit to play.

PETERSBURG, Fla.DETROIT -- The Detroit Pistons have reached an agreement in principle with the city of Detroit and Olympia Entertainment for the team to move from the suburbs to downtown, according to a person with knowledge of the negotiations.The person spoke on condition of anonymity Monday because there had been no formal announcement. Pistons owner Tom Gores is set to appear at a news conference Tuesday with Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan and Christopher Ilitch, president and CEO of Ilitch Holdings.Gores acknowledged last month that the team was close to a deal to leave The Palace of Auburn Hills and start playing downtown next season. The Pistons have been in talks about playing at the new arena that is being built for the Detroit Red Wings, who are owned by Mike and Marian Ilitch. The arena site is about 30 miles from Auburn Hills.Olympia Entertainment, a division of Ilitch Holdings, handles business operations for the Red Wings, who are in their final season at Joe Louis Arena before moving to Little Caesars Arena.The new arena is in the same part of downtown where the Tigers and Lions host their games, and not far from where Gores and Dan Gilbert have been hoping to put a new stadium for a Major League Soccer team.The Pistons have played in Auburn Hills since 1988 and played at the Pontiac Silverdome for a decade prior to that.dddddddddddd The team was downtown when it called Cobo Arena home from 1961-78.The Palace was built with private funds by William Davidson, who owned the Pistons before his death in 2009. The team won championships in its first two seasons in Auburn Hills and again in 2004. Although the atmosphere slipped in recent years as the team went through a rough stretch on the court, Detroit returned to the playoffs last season for the first time since 2009, and the Pistons appear headed in the right direction in Stan Van Gundys third season as their coach and team president.Gores bought the Pistons from Karen Davidson in 2011. He said last month that if the team did leave the Palace, it was important to remember the success the franchise had in that area.I think we have to be really mindful of this community in Auburn Hills and their loyalty in showing up, he said. This has been a real community, and I want them to feel the same wherever were playing.---Follow Noah Trister at www.Twitter.com/noahtrister ' ' '
