But everyone was doing flatheads back then. Ford flatheads were THE hotrod and racing engine post war.

I am guessing the same for packard and Chevy.


Packard had 2 inline 8s and a 6 to start in 1945 - same as pre-war. They dropped the little 8 for the 1948 model year and came out with 2 more. They dropped the big 8 in 1950 and made do with the 2 little eights.


Chebby had the venerable Stovebolt Six through 1954 and introduced the iconic small-block in 1955. Packard also introduced a OHV 8 in 1955. Problem was. Chebby was competing with Ford and Plymouth. Packard was competing with Cadillac who had OHVs in 1949, as did Oldsmobile. Chrysler came out with theirs a year or two later. Packard was in trouble and seemed to have lost their party invite. It's part of what killed them.
 
Don't you feel Jerry Jones' profound satisfaction for having signed his QB to an oil fortune and looking at their record???


The Ravings have a severe issue if they're going anywhere further.
You can't invest money as they are to obtain wins. There are so many variables in football. Injuries , not able to perform at a high enough level... etc. The NFL priced everyone out of attending get and is now gouging them with pay per views. B2 has it right. High school and College is a purer game. But we will see since they now pay college players.
 
Good Morning, everyone. This stupid cold is still in me. I was hoping it would dissipate over night, but no luck. I need to fish my mask out for my apt today. I can't cancel because she'll be leaving by the end of the week and this is a reschedule for missing my last one. No fever though. That is a plus. Enough of my whining. I hope everyone has a great start to their week!

The problem with pay to play in college is they forget about the role players, guys on the line. In the NFL lineman get paid. In college it’s about the QB. Without a line, the QB doesn’t have a chance.

On the other hand, for the longest time the U’s got the money and players barely enough.

I could go on about the present day in sports. It’s time to realize what’s really important- the grandkids😂

I recommend pseudoephedrine for congestion caused by a cold and bourbon for other symptoms.

My problem is they put education on the back page and it's all money and sports now.

It's nigh on time to give up on the whole damned thing past high school.
 
Morning all.

I got some catching up to do. Last night we just went out and got two slices of pizza for dinner and we had a beer along with it while we watched the football game.

Normal till about an hour afterwards, I started getting a really really bad headache.

I don’t know if it was the beer or not, but it was so bad I couldn’t even sleep. Migraine worthy.

I feel a little better this morning. I’m working, but that headache is still hanging in there… not nearly as bad as it was last night tho.
