CBS Sports Employee Evan Washburn

Not only should CBS Sports employee Evan Washburn be barred from wearing a ridiculous Undercut haircut, Evan Washburn should also be transformed from being fit and muscular to being fat and overweight; Evan Washburn should be forced to listen to Adult Contemporary, Jazz; and Easy Listening music, and Evan Washburn also needs to comprehend just how much more important the Automotive world, the world of amateur/ham radio; and the engineering side of commercial radio and television all are than the world of sports and fitness.

Ridiculous And Absurd CBS Sports Special Titled: PGA Tour: A Sporting Life

I do not like CBS Sports-my favorite television sports outlet ever since both of Neal Pilson’s tenures as the President of CBS Sports; televising a special about several modern golfers currently competing on the PGA Tour being Basketball, American Football, Baseball, Ice Hockey; or Soccer/Association Football players turned Professional Golfers, just like how nearly all modern NASCAR drivers since the beginning of the 21st Century have been Basketball, American Football, Baseball, Ice Hockey; or Soccer/Association Football players turned Stock Car Drivers and have been crucial figures in the change and modernization of NASCAR and having made the house that Big Bill France had built as appealing to the average person as Basketball, American Football, Baseball; and Ice Hockey.

Just like how I do not want NASCAR to ever change from it’s ways from the 1970’s-1990’s, I also don’t want the PGA Tour to ever change from the days of Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player, Tom Watson, Steve Elkington, Brad Faxon, Lee Janzen, Tom Lehman, Ian Woosnam, Barry Lane, Corey Pavin, Tom Kite, Jim Nantz’s college roommate by the name of Fred Couples; Davis Love III, Jim Gallagher Jr., Paul Azinger; and Payne Stewart.

Big whoop about the so-called “sporting life” that this television special emphasizes, big whoop about Dick’s Sporting Goods sponsoring this television special; and big whoop about Dick’s Sporting Goods claiming that sports do matter and that they’re a major importance to society on this entire planet.

Contrary to what Dick’s Sporting Goods believes, sports DO NOT matter. Only the Automotive world-including Full-Size Station Wagons and School Buses, the world of amateur/ham radio; and the world of commercial radio and television matter.

The Television Program On The History Cable Channel Titled: The Cars That Made America

I find it hard to comprehend that Dale Earnhardt Sr.’s disreputable son Dale Earnhardt Jr. would be the Executive Producer of the television show on the History cable channel titled: “The Cars That Made America”.

I would assist Dale Earnhardt Sr. in straightening out his son Dale Earnhardt Jr., and Dale Jr. should be forced to listen to Adult Contemporary, Jazz; and Easy Listening music.

Dale Jr. should have also been barred from getting different haircuts from time to time in years’ past.

Last, Dale Jr. should also comprehend that the Nissan Fairlady Z, Toyota Supra, Mazda RX-7, Volkswagen Sirocco/Corrado, Audi TT, R129 Mercedes-Benz SL, Porsche 911, Porsche 928; and the Porsche 924/944/968 are all better Sports Cars than the Camaro/Firebird, and many generations of the Corvette with the exception of the C4.

Chevrolet Unveils 2018 Camaro ZL1 NASCAR Cup Race Car

I do not approve of General Motors soliciting the Camaro-what has been an awful Sports Car since its introduction in 1967 when compared to the Nissan Fairlady Z, Toyota Supra, Mazda RX-7, Volkswagen Sirocco/Corrado; and the Audi TT; being solicited by General Motors as the model it will field in the NASCAR Winston Cup Series starting with the 2018 season.

General Motors should instead solicit the Malibu as the model that it fields in the NASCAR Winston Cup Series, just like how Toyota solicits its competitor-the XV70 Camry as the model it fields in the NASCAR Winston Cup Series; and Ford solicits the Fusion/Mondeo as the model that it fields in the NASCAR Winston Cup Series.

Chevrolet Introduces the Tahoe Custom

As you may figure by now if you’ve been following this blog for a while; vehicles such as GM B-platform Station Wagons, Suburbans, 2 and 4-door Tahoes/Jimmys/Yukons; Centurion Broncos and stock 2-door Broncos and the Expedition/Navigator that had succeeded them; and the Dodge Ramcharger/Plymouth TrailDuster are immeasurably important to me.

I am stunned to hear that as of now, General Motors finally feels the need to produce a trim level of the current-generation K2XX Tahoe with a starting price that’s even lower than that of the LS model.

Sohio (Standard Oil Company of Ohio)-Later To Become Part Of Amoco And Even Later, To Merge With British Petroleum Fuel Station Located In Worthington, Ohio

A photo of a Sohio fuel station (later to become part of Amoco and would even later merge with British Petroleum) that a man had taken with his Argus film camera during his lunch break from his school in circa 1938-1940. Pictured driving by is a 1935 LaSalle. LaSalle was a companion brand to Cadillac, was intended to be a “junior” Cadillac; and was the brainchild of Alfred Sloan’s companion make strategy. Also resulting from this strategy was Viking as a companion brand to Oldsmobile, Marquette as a companion brand to Buick; and Pontiac as a companion brand to Oakland.

This same fuel station operating as a BP fuel station decades later in 2011. Not too long after Google had shot this image as part of the “Street View” on their map of this area; the fuel station was sold, condemned; and constructed in its place is a Bistro.
