Reba drops like a stone this week, as most of us predicted and was mentioned in her now 16 page column here.  Tim remains #1, Kenny "goes back" to #2, Toby debuts at 32, and another new debut seen by Lonestar at #66.

My prediction for the next few #1:

Tim, 1 more week
Kenny will squeak in 2-3 weeks, until Keith Urban takes over for about 3 weeks. Then it's a battle between Alan Jackson and George Strait. Watch out for Toby though, I'm thinking in 3 weeks, he'll be in the top 10, and by end or middle of sept, could be getting [sigh] another #1. But I do like this song better than Whiskey Girl.
