| Are Edwards & Cooke facing suspensions? |

Two different hits could cause suspensions in two different sports that were broadcast on the Butler County Radio Network Sunday. Pittsburgh Penguins Matt Cooke's hit on Boston Bruins star Mark Savard knocked Savard out on the ice and out of the game. Although Pens head coach Dan Bylsma said Cooke's hit was not intentional, and no penalty was called, the NHL is meeting this week regarding such hits. Carl Edwards was knocked out of the NASCAR Sprint Cup race early in Atlanta Sunday after tangling with Brad Keselowski. He later returned more than a hundred laps down, and wrecked Keselowski with five laps to go in the race. Keselowski's car flipped violently upside down into the wall. He was running in the top 10 at the time. Edwards was parked for the remaing laps by NASCAR and was called to a meeting with NASCAR officials after the race and admitted he did it intentionally. Further sanctions could be announced Tuesday afternoon. On Monday night's "Fast Talk" program on WBUT, former driver Kyle Petty called for NASCAR to suspend Edwards for a race. Petty said Edwards move was foolish, pre-meditated and uncalled for on a track where speeds reach over 190 miles per hour. NASCAR officials announced a hands-off policy for this season, saying drivers would police themselves, but may be forced to act due to safety concerns from this incident.
