    Jim Otto HOF center from the original Oakland Raiders AFL/AFC West, dies 86 years old

    I can only assume (actually know) you’re referring the Rich Gannon that originally played 5 yrs for the Vikings, then 4 for KC before finally actually doing something w/Oak. Yes I readily admit to no SBs - that’s all you naysayer’s got. Let’s match division titles and NFC/AFC title games in this...

    Jim Otto HOF center from the original Oakland Raiders AFL/AFC West, dies 86 years old

    All black & white - pics that can only be found on microfiche …. So what since……? Yeah that’s what I thought…..Not even in this century….

    Jim Otto HOF center from the original Oakland Raiders AFL/AFC West, dies 86 years old

    Sorry but it was Alan Page who went on to be a Lawyer, Judge and then Supreme Court Justice on MN. Losing SBs has exactly zero to do with it. HOF is about season accomplishments. And if not for Marshall they just may not have made those 4 SBs. Earlier point has to do w/politics seems to have as...

    Jim Otto HOF center from the original Oakland Raiders AFL/AFC West, dies 86 years old

    I would never argue Otto’s career, legacy and HOF status. He was an iron man and indeed one of the greatest centers to ever play the game. A legend indeed. But I will argue as to why a man/player every molecule as great on the other side of the ball has been denied the HOF and similar...

    Price of Avocados (Mexico)

    No question the pooch is getting screwed….. Similar to what we are in CA. We pay the highest gas tax in the world. And our prices are at the very top of the spectrum - Why? Someone’s not telling us the true truth ….. Valero Oil has been sued dozens of times by the state of corruption. They have...

    Price of Avocados (Mexico)

    Those gas prices are what they are here in SoCal. About $6 for premium (91 Oct). I’m surprised they are that high in MX. You have your own oil supply - Yes? And then refining it - do you have refineries?

    Bud Anderson passes

    Another of the greatest generations American Hero’s passes. It will be forever sad if our generation is the last to venerate these incredible builders of our great nation - They built a wonderful country and did much to save the world when called upon to do so. Sadly their heroics both at home...

    “God Bless the USA” by Lee Greenwood. Makes me tear up and sends shivers of pride up and down when ever I listen to it.

    '69 RR steering wheel replacement

    Mine was in good shape - like flawless. But I never liked the look or feel of it (68 X) From the beginning I did the leather wrap and strap - but never really was all that jacked up about that either. When I restored her I did every piece in the car with leather. Seats, pillars, kick panels...

    NAPA GOLD FILTERS........... AHHHH NO

    A well intended and useful link - There has to be much more than this. Another part of the issue may be What does “American Made”mean? I wanted to replace my HVAC system in its entirety last year. I wanted to buy American. I did what research I could but wasn’t really satisfied I was getting...

    NAPA GOLD FILTERS........... AHHHH NO

    Fortunately that’s not really true. There are still plenty of people that will pay more for that label “Made in the USA”. A larger issue is there’s not nearly the availability of US made goods as there once was. Too many products are coming from outside and we’ve become a nation of distributors...

    Facebook Marketplace, Manipulate Me Please

    And that my friends is why I never - from beginning til now and forever foreword have never and will never be part of that evil scourge …. I despise all aspects of social media. FBBO is the one and only forum I’m a part of.

    NAPA GOLD FILTERS........... AHHHH NO

    That is such a tragic and sickening story of govt failure to its own economic drivers at the homeland. Remember a guy named Ross Perot - and the term “A giant sucking sound”? How prophetic was that? For those of us old enough to know and care it’s a terrible prophesy come true to a worse case...
