It's becoming increasingly concerning for me to write on this site lately.

I saw a Tweet referencing who Emily Maynard is dating. Most red blooded American males have zero clue who Emily Maynard is, and they should frankly all be proud of that fact. I, however, immediately knew that Emily Maynard is the former Bachelorette, who just recently split with her publicly declared fiancee Jef Holm just a couple weeks ago. Maynard first rose to fame for being chosen winner by The Bachelor Brad Womack, has also been linked to then Panthers Tight End Jeremy Shockey. It appears that Emily vacillates between reality TV contestants and professional athletes, as just three weeks after her split with Holm, Maynard was spotted out at a Carrie Underwood concert in Charlotte with NASCAR Truck Series driver Jason White. This isn't her first trek into pit road, as Maynard's late fiancee was Stock Car racer Ricky Hendrick who passed away in 2004. Maynard has also been linked (without confirmation) to Dale Earnhardt Jr.

So is she at it again, and is Jason White's girlfriend Emily Maynard? It remains to be seen, but early reports had the two looking very much the couple during the concert and were later seen weaving through a crowd holding hands. Us Weekly had reports from the ever reliable and unnamed eye witnesses who say the couple broke away from a larger group of friends to retire to a private club Suite to party for the rest of the night. Those same sources also say that Emily is returning to what she knows and considers safe, which might be the first time ever that NASCAR drivers have been referred to as safe. We'll keep an eye out on this one and see if anything more develops.

There are a lot of people out there who equate the people who work and follow NASCAR as, how do I put this delicately, not the brightest bulbs on the tree. I'm here to put this myth to rest, at least when it comes to the NASCAR drivers. Have you seen all the wives and girlfriends we have posted on this site for NASCAR drivers? If you have then you would know the drivers are smart enough to grab some incredibly hot women.

Take a look at Martin Truex Jr.'s girlfriend Sherry Pollex. We might have to do a top 10 NASCAR wife segment on the site here. I bet the top 5 ladies of NASCAR could hold their own against the top 5 of any sport. Don't think for a moment that these girls are all looks and no brains either. While Sherry had an in with the NASCAR circuit (her dad Greg Pollex owns PPC Racing), this Michigan native quickly proved she had what it takes to work in NASCAR all nepotism jokes aside. After getting her degree in Sports Marketing from Florida State University Sherry scored a job working as a public relations representative that worked with NASCAR. It was during this time that Sherry met Martin Truex Jr. Eventually Sherry would quit her job to travel with Martin.

While some women would have been happy traveling with their boyfriend/husband and not working Sherry had bigger plans. The Lavendar Boutique was started by Sherry in North Carolina focusing on designer denim. Despite running a shop that works mostly with women she has been known to help out some of the drivers on the NASCAR circuit, including Dale Earnhardt Jr. Sherry also is on the executive board of Martin's foundation. You want to know how popular some NASCAR significant others can be, take a look at their twitter account. @SherryPollex has over 21K followers (and the woman is verified). She is so popular that when Sherry posts it can make headlines in the NASCAR world. Take for example when she went after Joey Logano who she thought spun her boyfriend out at the 2012 NASCAR race in Sonoma, CA. “Sad for MT,” Pollex wrote. “He got a flat on the last lap because Joey Lagano is an idiot.” Of course the post was later removed but I think Sherry made her point.

Brad Keselowski's girlfriend Crystal Lohman

I wish I knew the reason that Brad Keselowski's girlfriend Crystal Lohman is no longer his girlfriend. I'm sure there is a great reason as to why the couple is no longer dating but wow I'm a big Crystal fan. She has about every quality I could want in a female in the looks department. However, before we start feeling terrible for Brad here, let's be clear that not for one second do I think Brad Keselowski is hurting in the lady department. I mean you can't break up with a girl that looks like Crystal without having a few smokeshows lined up.

Brad, for those not familiar, is a rising star in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series whose time might be right now. He's already conquered the lower levels of NASCAR such as the Nationwide Series (2010 winner) and has his sites set on the Sprint Cup title. Brad grew up around racing, his father Bob was in the truck division and his uncle Ron was in the Sprint Cup back when it was called the Winston Cup (you know back when cigarette companies were allowed to sponsor sports). So it isn't too difficult to see why Brad has done well at every level of NASCAR he has entered.

Despite the quick run up the NASCAR ladder Brad isn't a household name like Dale, Tony Stewart or the brothers Johnson. One crazy event Brad is known for is at the Daytona 500, during a red flag, Brad found the time to post on twitter. He actually keeps his phone in the car with him when he races. If Brad can win a Sprint Car championship Brad will not only become a household name but I'm sure this page will get an update when he is linked to a movie star, model or some other hot female.
