Joey Logano has been extremely successful in the NASCAR Cup Series since his first full-time season back in 2009. And hes done it his way. Thats meant ruffling a few feathers along the way.

This week, just days before the Clash at the Coliseum, where many expect aggressive beating and banging action on the quarter-mile track, the 2018 champ talked about his plan of attack inside the iconic venue. And he interestingly discussed his moral racing code and just how far hes willing to go in order to achieve victory.

Last year, NASCAR President Steve Phelps, who worked 14 years with the NFL in its marketing department, appeared on theI Am Athlete-NASCARpodcast and discussed, among other topics, his time in the NFL and his experiences in NASCAR.

During the conversation, he named his top five NFL players he worked with based on marketing-athletic ability and then named a NASCAR driver equivalent. Emmitt Smith made his top five. Joey Logano was his match.

Im going to go Joey Logano, Phelps said. Ill give you just a quick why. Because I dont know Emmitt Smith well, but Ive met him a couple of times. Hes sharp. Hes obviously an incredible talent, Hall of Famer and all that. Think he does a really good with his own brand and I think he cares about that sport.

Joey Logano cares about this sport. Id say Joeys a little more when hes out of the car, phenomenal guy. Smart. Cares about the sport. When hes in the car, he doesnt give a s***, Phelps admitted. Couldnt be nicer. When you get in the arena, hes going to, I dont care who you are. Ill take you out.

With the start of the 2022 NASCAR Cup Series season beginning with an exhibition on a custom-built quarter-mile track inside the LA Coliseum, Joey Logano and all the drivers will be tested on multiple levels.

For starters, no drivers have ever raced a lap on this new bullring, which took just over a month to construct. In addition, its the first time any of them will be driving the Next Gen car in actual racing conditions.

With so many unknowns, some drivers might hang back and play it safe, trying to avoid an accident and the ensuing damage. Logano is not one of those drivers. This week in a call with reporters, the 31-year-old said in the type of aggressive racing everyone expects in the Coliseum, his mindset remains the same as it does in any race, and he tries to follow the Golden Rule.

You have to be consistent. Whats consistent? Im going to win. Im going out there to win the race, Logano said. Thats the goal. And we do what it takes to do that.

But you have to have your moral code and what is considered OK. Is straight-up dumping somebody OK to go win the race? I dont think so. Thats not really in my cards. Now, a bump-and-run, Ive proven thats OK. And the facts are you have to be OK with it happening to you. Am I OK with getting wrecked? No. Am I OK with getting moved out of the way? Yeah, Im not going to be happy about it, but Im going to have to be OK with it if Im going to do it. I feel like that should be the code. Whatever youre OK with happening to you, you should be alright with doing to somebody else. Thats only fair.

Joey Logano vocalizing what he deems as acceptable on-track behavior makes logical sense, but in the heat of the moment, emotions can get the best of the drivers. All of them remember how someone raced them.

For a number of drivers, theyre not fond of Loganos tactics. That became apparent in last yearsUSA Todayannual survey that features answers from NASCAR Cup Series drivers to unique questions about their fellow drivers.

Logano received votes for the most frustrating driver to race against, with one vote from his arch-rival Kyle Busch and an eyebrow-raising tally from his longtime Penske teammate Brad Keselowski.

However, that wasnt the only negative category Logano won. On the question of driver most likely to bump you out of the way to win a race, the Team Penske driver received votes from Keselowski, Matt DiBenedetto, and Christopher Bell.

Logano has earned a reputation as the guy that Steve Phelps correctly pointed out doesnt give a s*** on the race track. And hes OK with it.

Here's mine from my English class:

The 5 Rules In My Life:

1. Always Assume Disappointment.If you are always assuming that someone will let you down, youll never be disappointed. And if they dont you will be pleasantly surprised.

2.Always Respect Someone Until They Give You A Reason Not To.

When you meet someone new, you respect them. Until, they say/do something that makes it so you dont anymore.

3.Dont Assume Something Is True.

If you hear something about somebody that didnt come from the person themselves, always ask them if it is true.

4.Do What Makes You Comfortable.

Who cares what John in the deli thinks? If you like that shirt, f*****g rock it! Do whatever makes you happy, not what you think other people would like.

5.Put Yourself First.

If someone, (i.e, a friend, an S.O, a coworker) wants to do something you dont want to do, makes you uncomfortable, is pressuring you into something, dont listen. Listen to what you want first. You are the most important person in your life. You will always come first.

Follow these and live the best life!

The Golden Rule. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. The older I get the more I see in that seemingly simple cluster of words. I should admit that I stray at times, because I am human. But when we raised our children, that was our guide. It gave us patience, and guidelines when we needed them, and made us better listeners. it also enabled us to comfortably admit when we had no idea what to do as parents. Instead of pretending (lying) we talked with them, listened, and ended up with a solution we could all accept.

When I have to make a decision or a choice, I think about which action I might regret the most if it doesn't work out. I play all the alternatives to the end, and focus on which one feels the most bearable if it wasn't the best one. Which one can I back out of, or most easily undo, if necessary? Most advice I read is "go for what makes you happy", "maximize profits", positive stuff like that. Positive outcomes do not come often to me and cannot be counted on, so I stick with minimizing the emotional fallout from negative ones.A second rule I follow is to document everything and save as much as possible, and that often means on paper. You can't count on cloud storage to always be there. I am talking to you, Kodak EZ share, Verizon Pix Place, and Google Plus, where some of my photos vanished forever, and their warnings were either too late or the method they gave you to save them did not work. My most recent "thank you for saving all those boxes of crap, Mom" incident was the College Board trying to tell my 35 year old she had to take the SAT again, because they lost the record that she took it. Well I didn't lose it, they dug a bit harder and she did NOT have to relearn all that useless algebra and geometry to try and achieve her 1400 score again!

72 hour rule. I tend to be very reactionary which has caused A LOT of trouble for me in the past. At one point I realized that when I calmed down and thought things thru I generally considered things from multiple perspectives and regretted my initial reaction. So I initiated the 72 hour rule. When something makes me VERY angry or upset I inform the person involved that I will not discuss it again for the next 3 days. In that time I consider the problem and follow up accordingly. Obviously there are times that 72 hours arent reasonable but by using this technique most of the time Ive become much better at responding more reasonably and less defensively.

It's ok to be different if you're comfortable with a small circle of friends and distance yourself from the potential trouble, that's your choice, and you're free to choose. Never engage with office drama, stay away from people who bad-mouthing colleagues. If you are traveling to a new place always learn the local wisdom and try your best to follow the guideline. Believe your guts. Try to stay within budget, never get a loan for unnecessary things. Sometimes in life being helpful to others keeps us alive, just remember not to burn ourselves out. Even if it's hard, live a healthy lifestyle, If exercise in the gym is too much hassle, static walking while watching TV is better than nothing. Do not litter. Stay away from drugs.

1. Go with your gut.If something doesn't seem right it probably isn't.2. Better to be quiet and have a few good than loud and have many fake friends. 3.

NOBODY deserves to know anything about you.I used to come out to people because i thought they "deserved" to know instead of me wanting to tell them. This is how i was outted to my Catholic school.

Hey Pandas, What Are Some Rules You Follow In Your Life? - Bored Panda

Mikaela Shiffrin, of the United States, races down the course during a training run for the World Cup downhill ski race, Tuesday, Nov. 30, 2021, in Lake Louise, Alberta. ((Frank Gunn/The Canadian Press via AP))

Mikaela Shiffrin, who at 26 is perhaps the best alpine skier in American history, already has a few lifetimes worth of memorable wins under her belt as she heads into the Winter Olympics. But it is a loss she witnessed when she was a child that still sticks with her.

When she was 6 years old, the US hosted the winter games in Salt Lake City, where all-time great mens skier Bode Miller already had two silver medals and was cruising towards a third in the slalom. All he needed was to complete a second attempt with a passable run to rack up a medal. Instead, the New Hampshire native went all guns blazing in an all-out play for gold, only to make an error on the course and lose his shot at a third podium. Miller hiked back up the mountain to finish out his run.

Even at a young age, Ms Shiffrin has said. I could relate to that.

Her career has shattered record after record, but she would need a whole lot of grit to keep going all the sameexperiences she will carry as she represents the US in Beijing.

The lightning fast alpine skier, who competes across all events rather than specialising like many of her competitors, made her debut on the World Cup stage at 15, and has been notching unprecedented feats ever since. In 2014, at 18, she became the youngest Olympic slalom champion in history. With three Olympic medals, six world championships, and 73 World Cup races, shes the most decorated American alpine skier in history, male or female. In 2015, she once won a World Cup race by more than 3 seconds, the largest margin of victory in nearly 50 years.

Mikaelas the best Ive ever seen, male or female, in a few different categories, Bode Miller himself told TIME. She can do whatever she wants.

Her success has been great, but it hasnt been without equally great challenges. Being a child prodigy on the world stage, and a natural introvert at that, came with alienation, with people viewing her as some sort of freak of nature, describing her skiing as cyborg-adjacent it was so precise and skilled.

Story continues

I feel like [they] look at me and are like, Do we speak to it? she told Sports Illustrated, who once dubbed her the worlds most dominant athlete.

Then there was the pressure that came from her outsized success. During the 2018 Olympics in South Korea, she won another two medals, including a gold in slalom, but still came in for criticism from some when she pulled out of the super-G and downhill categories, citing fatigue.

That alienation would only grow in 2020 when, her dominance atop the sport long since proven, her beloved father Jeff died in a freak accident at home in Edwards, Colorado. Mikaela wouldnt ski for nearly a year.

My family is heartbroken beyond comprehension about the unexpected passing of my kindhearted, loving, caring, patient, wonderful father, she said at the time. He taught us so many valuable lessons but above everything else, he taught us the golden rule: be nice, think firstThis is something I will carry with me forever. He was the firm foundation of our family and we miss him terribly.

Jeff Shiffrin, an anesthesiologist in Vail, Colorado, and former Dartmouth University skier himself, was a constant presence in the prodigys life in- and outside of skiing. He helped teach Shiffrin to ski in the driveway at age two, and was a constant presence at World Cup dates, known for trekking around the sidelines snapping photos of his wickedly talented daughter.

After spending weeks in mourning, she tried to return to competition in Sweden later that year, only to see the race canceled because of Covid. She was overtaken in the standings and lost the shortened 2019 - 2020 season.

She made her return to skiing that November, and embarked on a shaky comeback season, notching eight less World Cup podiums than the year before.

Still awash in grief, she pulled out of some events, citing the example of Olympic gymnast Simone Biles, who has withdrawn from some competitions to protect her mental health. That year, Shiffrin described feeling mentally vacant, blacking out while competing and forgetting what had just happened, wondering momentarily if she forgot how to ski. Perhaps most terrifying of all for a sport that involves whipping down a mountain at nearly 80 mph, she would get a sensation of darkness closing in around her field of view, obscuring the course before her.

Its not about settling scores, she told the Olympic channel at the time. I am angry that my dad died, I am angry how lonely I feel most days.

The 2021 season proved difficult as well, with a back injury stalling her training in October and a positive Covid test doing the same in December.

But the cyborg-adjacent skier is returning to form, and is now back to number one in the world alpine womens rankings.

She has credited embracing those complicated emotions that have accompanied her rise to the top of world sport. She has done everything from meditate, to read Sheryl Sandbergs book on grief Option B, to write music, to see a sports psychologist, to raise money for the Jeff Shiffrin Athlete Resiliency Fund, a programme to support athletes undergoing adversity.

She would return to mottos questions her dad used to her as she worked her way through ascending levels of competition as a kid: Are you happy? Is it fun? And shes making it a priority that the answer to those questions is yes.

I finally feel like myself again, she told The New York Times. When a devastating thing happens, its like coming back from a significant injury. I hadnt lost my ability or lost my fire, I was just healing, OK?

During the Beijing Games, shell be back to competing in all-five alpine ski races. If she continues on her current tear, she could easily surpass Julia Mancusos all-time, four-medal record for American womens skiers or even Swedish skier Ingemar Stenmarks record for 86 career victories. Another of her fathers mottos was process over results. Its about skiing your best in the moment, not chasing records or number-one finishes. When Mikaela Shiffrin hits the slopes in China, that process will now include a deep well of resilience.
